accompanied by regional offices of the company.

The main office is of chair person Mr.amir mehmood

The financial analysis shows it success and its large business
volume. The reason behind its success is viewed by the swot
analysis and its weakness also highlighted.

I have thoroghly study the working environment of Allied schools.

I have given some recommendation which can improve and
enhance its working abilities and surely encourage the employees
to work mode dedicatedly and efficiently.

This initiative has wider national significance as energy scarcity is

currently the countrys biggest problem. With Pakistans
exceptionally good solar radiation ratings, the project could shift
the focus of energy production towards technologies that use local
natural resources and away from possible fuel burning thermal
power plants that rely heavily on imported fuel.

Massege by mian amir mehmood:

Dear Parents,
I firmly believe that education is the basic right of all
human beings living on this planet regardless of their social
background. An educated nation is democratically stable and
consistent in its economic viability, a lesson learnt through my
passion for education for the last three decades.

Though the state is primarily responsible to eradicate

illiteracy, this task cannot be accomplished without realization and
endeavors by all of the stakeholders of our society.

In order to enable all individuals to reach and utilize

their maximum potential, education is categorically imperative.
Education also combats unemployment, confirms sound foundation
of social equity, awareness, tolerance and spread of political
socialization and cultural vitality. To meet such challenges, we all
need to extend helping-hand to one another for the generations to
come.
I am proud of the fact that we have been able to
make a remarkable contribution for quality education in Pakistan.

We have, therefore, tried to share in the development of human

resource capital from the general masses by providing affordable
educational opportunities throughout Pakistan.

I hope and desire that our education system should

produce responsible, enlightened citizens to align Pakistan with the
global framework of economic and social prosperity. I am confident
that Allied Schools will suffice this dire need of our society.
Allied Schools is another effort to remain on the
leading role for literacy improvement in Pakistan. I, therefore,
welcome to parents and their children to become part of Allied
Schools family to grow together.
I believe it is today we must create the world of the future.
Sincerely yours,

Mian Amir Mahmood

 Introduction:

Since its inception in 1985,with the 550+ campuses. Allied school has
always been a market leader in nontraditional businesses. Where other
Pakistani business groups are mostly in traditional manufacturing industry
such as textiles, cement and sugar, Allied schools forges its own way,
exploring new markets and setting its own precedent. Its forte is in the
services sector and infrastructure industry.

At a time when the education sector was just opening up to private

enterprise, Allied school was the pioneer in setting up private schools and is
now the market leader. Its educational network is the largest network of its
kind anywhere in the Pakistan. It caters to children from Pre School through
to A level (High School), and also runs tertiary educational institutes.

The University of Central Punjab imparts Liberal Arts and science education
at both graduate and postgraduate levels. The Punjab Group also runs the
largest transport network in the country; owns and operates one of Pakistans
leading IT departments; is in the process of setting up Pakistans first wind
farm power station; and is poised to expand into the burgeoning floriculture
business.

Allied schools, the largest privately owned education system of its kind in
the Pakistan. Established in November 1985 as the star Montessori Academy
for toddlers, Allied schools has since grown into a large network of private
schools, institutes, and universities, imparting distinctive and meaningful
education to the students from pre-school to post-graduation.

Through close links with leading UK universities, Allied also helps provide
professional education and training to more than 6,000 staff members,
enabling them to improve their classroom practice as well as obtain
certificates, diplomas and degrees that have global recognition.

From its humble beginnings over 32 years ago, Allied school today is much
more than just a school. Through distinctly independent divisions, it caters to
the education and training needs of a diverse group of individuals of varying
age, socio-economic background, and ethnicity.

Equipped with the understanding and experience of three decades of school

management, educational product development, teacher training, and
curriculum development, Allied has in recent years started to move out of its
home territory and has embarked upon an ambitious program of establishing
private schools in cities throughout pakistan is one testimony to this journey
of globalization.

We hope you will find this website informative and useful. And if you

PERFORMANCE MANAGEMENT;

Performance management refers to the ongoing process of setting goals,

self-assessment, manager assessment, coaching, development planning, and
evaluation.
A key aspect of performance management is performance measurement.
Clear and concise measures are required in order to properly define the
desired goals in performance management. Most performance management
systems fail to achieve the desired goals because goal measurement is not
specific enough, poorly communicated or because results cannot be
measured effectively.

Employee performance management works best when work is planned and

goals are consistent .Allied schools plans and sets goals for performance
management that creates rewards for good performance, and consequences
for poor performance. In this way the employee feels the consequences of
work
performance, whether good or bad. Performance management gives
feedback to employees on consistent basis than the average annual basis.

By this the employees ability to exceed or failure to meet goals may be

monitored. This provides the employee the opportunity to receive rewards or
to make behavior changes sooner if performance is not up to par.

Solar emery Project
This initiative has wider national
significance as energy scarcity is
currently the countrys biggest problem.
With Pakistans exceptionally good
solar radiation ratings, the project could
shift the focus of energy production
towards technologies that use local
natural resources and away from fossil
fuel burning thermal power plants that
rely heavily on imported fuel.
Through distinct and independent
divisions in Pakistan, it caters to the
education and training needs of a large
and diverse group of individuals of
varying ages, socio-economic
backgrounds, and nationalities, with its
activities also extending beyond
education in some countries.

CRITICAL ANALYSIS:
During my internship period I was very much impressed to see the working
environment that was provided to the employees. But due to my
observations there are certain things to be criticize such as:

a) EMPLOYEE SELECTION PROCESS:

If a vacancy is vacant the preference is mostly given to females not males
even though the qualification of male is high.

b) PAY SCALE:
The work load on males is much more as compared to females but the pay
scales of females are much more as compared to males. However every
Saturday is off for females but alternative Saturday is off for males. That is
the main reason about 70 to 80% employees including management
consists of females.

c) EMPLOYEE PERFORMANCE:
If the assistant managers skills and performance is better than the
manager, he cannot be promoted until the manager retires or resigns. Thats
why many assistant managers with excellent communicational skill and
performance resign.

d) COMPENSATIONAL BENEFITS:

No bonuses are given to the employees.

Pension is also finished from this year. Now there is no pension and
bonus for employees.

e) WORK LOAD:
Employees salaries are very low as compared to their work load due to
which many employees resign.

Conclusion;
I have concluded that Allied schools have a big business volume.
They are providing Quality education in the public sector
The head office where I have done my internship has an Organized and
efficient system.
But the number of turnover of employees is high. The working system of
organization is based on MIS. All the work is done through proper channel.
The working staff is very cooperative with the new trainees and encourages
them to work with them.
Allied schools are one of the largest private sector school organizations in
the world. With vast and growing network, they at Allied schools are always
on the lookout for skilled and capable people willing to take on a challenge.
Allied schools offers competitive employee packages and has a vibrant and
dynamic working environment. There are a variety of job opportunities at
different levels available in organization in two specific areas: academics
and corporate.
The overall analysis is indicating that the companys progress has mainly
attained through dedication of employees. The effectiveness of its
management, their willingness to take advantage of opportunities and face
challenges of changing requirement of well-educated and confident children
on the society, this all contributes to the very much improved and sound
position of company. This is really appreciable for the devotion and hard
work of all the employees of the company.

But the main issue is related to affordability of the all classes of the society.
This quality education should be affordable to all the people.The overall
structure of ALLIED SCHOOL is excellent. I am very proud to
complete my internship from this organization. I learnt a lot of things in
very short interval of time.
In ALLIED SCHOOL system the Human Resource Department plays the
key
role in the hiring, retention, motivation and promotion of the employees.
They
are also trying to improve their HR process and utilizing new concepts and
techniques of HR to provide better facilities for their staff as well as to
improve
their skills to gain more advantages. They believe that their people are their
asset and to emphasize this concept they invest more on their people,
keeping this in view that in this way their organization will groom.
ALLIED SCHOOL system is constantly planning for its staffing
requirements,
for this the HR department follow a complete selection process and gather
resumes and then they start their selection and recruitment process following
by
interviews in which interviewee is compared with the set standard of HR and
then they follow the steps of selecting the candidates.
After selecting a person
they give training to the person as per requirement and then the newly hired
employee starts his work. After completion of probation period manager of
the
concern department forward a performance report to the HR department and
regional director to suggested increment for him and after successful
completion of probation period employee gets confirmation letter.
ALLIED SCHOOL school system conducts training sessions to enhance the
abilities of its employee. They conduct training need assessment programs
and arrange training programs as per requirement.
In ALLIED SCHOOL system annual increments are based on employee
performance. Regional director reviews the performance of all employees
and

compare standards with the actual performance.

ALLIED SCHOOL system is providing compensations and benefits to it
employees on the basis of their designations. Employees at different
designations are enjoying different compensations and benefits but basic
benefits that include medical, holidays and educational allowance are almost
same for all employees. ALLIED SCHOOL system career management
opportunity is common for teachers. Every month 5 to 10 transfers and
separations are very common.ALLIED SCHOOL is trying to control this
situation because students studies get
affected by this.

Recommendations:
Fee of the schools of Allied school should be affordable.
Company should provide the conveyance to the employees.
Discrimination b/w employees should be avoided.
High level manger should cooperate with the lower level employees and
should encourage them
They should improve their computerized system. It should be latest to cope
up with the modern need of accounting and financing system.
In regional offices proper facilities should be provided to the employees like
Air-conditioning, and latest working equipment.
In Head office all the employees should be provided the laptops instead of
desktop computers.
The overall working environment of Allied schools is excellent but there are

certain things that should be improved in my opinion:

a) EDUCATION:
The Allied schools pays a lot of attention on A-level and primary classes but
they pay less attention to Metric sections, thats why the result of
Allied schools metric section is decreasing continuously. Another reason for
this is that the teachers use old notes for metric sections. As we know that
the syllabus changes continuously and new things are added in the syllabus
each year but the teachers teach from the same notes each year without any
change or additions. To improve the metric result teachers should use new
updated notes for teaching and Allied schools should also focus on metric
result sincerely.

b) PAY POLICY:
The pay policy of Allied schools is very low due to which many teachers
and good performers resign and join other institutions. Allied schools should
increase their pay policy so that good performers may not leave easily.

c) EQUAL EMPLOYMENT OPPORTUNITIES FOR

MALE AND FEMALE:
There should be equal employment opportunities for both males and
females. Females and males should also have equal pays at same level or
designation.

d) BONUSES AND PENSIONS:

Allied schools should give at least one bonus near EID because Employees
pays are very low and the bonus near Eid can be very useful for them.
Pensions should be started again because this is the only benefit that
employee has after retirement.
