Introduction:

Pakistani business groups are mostly in traditional manufacturing industry

exploring new markets and setting its own precedent. Its forte is in the
services sector and infrastructure industry.
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.
We hope you will find this website informative and useful. And if you

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:
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:
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
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
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.
