Abstract
Multi stage sampling technique was used to evaluate these major determinants. Five Tehsils of
district Fasialabad viz. 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.
