Tehsil Faisalabad, Chak Jhumra,Summandri, Jaranwala and Tandianwala were selected. At initial stage tehsil Faisalabad was stipulated purposively. At second stage Faisalabad tehsil was classified into three components low class areas, middle class areas and high class areas. Two area of each class was selected with simple random sampling technique at third stage. The total sample was comprised on 120 respondents and 40 respondents from each class were picked randomly. An inclusive questionnaire was developed keeping in view the research objectives and data was assembled with personal interview. A statistical package for social sciences (SPSS) was mainly used to analyze the data. The final results of research shows that increase in poverty, surge in family income, and removal of societal barriers eminently influenced the women education. Government should have to pay cogitation to condense the poverty and acts to initiate new industries to increase the family source of income in order to revamp the women education in Pakistan.
