The current study was designed to explore if gender discrimination has any role in school dropout of rural
female students in Pakistan. The sample of this qualitative study consisted of n=20 participants. Eight
dropout girls with age range 10-18years, 8 mothers of dropout girls and 4 teachers were selected through
Purposive sampling technique. Three separate interview schedules were designed in Urdu for conducting
in-depth interviews. Analysis of these interviews was done using Interpretative Phenomenological
Analysis (IPA). Results indicated that gender discrimination appeared to be the big reason for school
dropout along with poverty and domestic or household responsibilities. It was apparent that most of the
grandparents were against the girls‟ education but they are not against boys‟ education. It also appeared
that if parents support girls they can continue education despite family opposition. Mothers seemed to
have a supportive role in girls‟ education. Far off schools, teachers‟ harsh behaviour, lack of interest and
failure also become hurdles in girls‟ education.
