Parents’ Voices to Enroll Out of School Girls A Case Study of a Village in Pakistan

This study investigates parents' attitudes and opinions of their daughters' education in a remote hamlet where girls are frequently absent from school. The study's goal was to obtain insight into the variables that impact parents' decisions to enroll or not enroll their daughters in school, as well as to understand the barriers to education they confront. Qualtiative methodology was used to have in depth views of parents about the reasons and lack of oppurtunities for the education of their girls. A close ended interview schedule was designed to collect data from 27 parents/families from Qila Sttar Shah Ferozewala Tehsil of Sheikhupura in Pakistan. The findings reveled the voices of parents. They reported that they confront a number of hurdles, including poverty, cultural beliefs, and restricted access to resources. The report emphasizes the necessity of including parents in their daughters' education and suggests solutions to solve the village's hurdles to girls' education. According to the study, integrating parents in their daughters' education is critical to establishing gender equality in school and enhancing the general well-being of girls in the village.
