political parties not interfere of any school matter.

Economic
Inflation is a main factor to rise of pricing of everything whereby the education industries is
also affected and raise the cost of education in every school. School management has closely
review of a local industry may affect fund raising plans such as cost cutting plan, revised Fee
Structure etc.

moving on to more ‘up and coming’ schools/ academies institutes.

environmental threat but some indirect environmental threat is as under:

16
 FIVE FORCES MODEL

Rivalry among Competing Firms:

The demand for schools have risen all over the
world and so Pakistan has also has also followed
the trend. This has resulted in heavy competition
among the market of business schools. Although
there are many new school in this industry but Aga
Khan School Garden the oldest institute still
remains the market leader and is challenged by Al-Murtuza School and Habib Girls School of
Karachi. Industry Rivalry is HIGH.

Threats of New Entry Competitors:

The high demand, growth and attractive profits will attract new competitors in the market.
Other than this the support of the government, in order to raise educational standards in
the country, will includes subsidies and setting up help, not only the Government but NGO’S
and financially sound responsible citizens are also aiding new educational institutions. This
further act as an incentive to enter the market. Threat of New Entry is HIGH.

Threats of Substitute Product:

The most important part of our life is spent at school. During this period students learn
almost all the good things that we should acquire. School is the training ground for all virtues
that make a good man. Therefore there is no substitute of schooling. But we have substitute
of board are exists and in that curriculum is different and the pattern of examination is
different. Threat of Substitute is MEDIUM.

17
Bargaining Power of Suppliers:
Obviously the bargaining power of suppliers affects the intensity of competition in an
industry. Here if we talk about School, in which the major supply raw material is in shape of
Teachers. As we all know that is necessary for every professional to upgrade their
qualification so many teachers complete their Master and expect for high pay but for
institution notable fulfill their expectation.
Whereas graduate teaching associates are large in number so bargaining power decreases.
So, in this way bargaining power decreases from top level of hierarchy to bottom level of
hierarchy. Bargaining Power of Supplier is LOW.

Bargaining Power of Buyers:

Customers are the most vital component of any organization and most importantly having
a good loyal customer is good fortune. Institutions like Aga Khan School Garden have
average range of fees from other than good competitor schools parents cannot negotiate
for fees and few needy students parents themselves contact other institution personally for
financial aid. Bargaining Power of Buyers is MEDIUM.

Step in the Construction of CPM Matrix:
Here we have using weighted rating system for the construction of Competitive Profile
Matrix. Some of important steps involved in the construction Profile Matrix are given below:

In the first Column, we have list down 9 key of success factor of education sector.

In the Second Column, we have assigned weight to each factor ranging from (0.0 not
important 1 most important).Education quality, Fee Structure , Location and Qualified
Faculty have Greater weight should be given to this sector which have greater influence on
the School performance and the sum of all weight must equal than one.

Now rate each factor ranging from 1 to 4 for all school in analysis. Here rating 1 represent
major weakness, rating shows minor weakness. Similarly, Rating 3 indicates minor strength
whereas rating 4 shows major strength. It means that weakness must receive 1 or 2 rating
while strength must get 3 or 4 rating. Calculate weight score by multiplying each factor’s
score by its rating. And last we have total weight sore of all the school by adding the
weighted score for each variable.

CMP Matrix demonstrates that Aga Khan School is the sector leader and dominates its rivals
with highest point 3.25. Habib Girl school runner up with 2.95 point and Al Murtaza School
is the weakest rival among these three with the score of 2.75.This Matrix also show Aga Khan
School is the strong in all the aspect rivals and has strong position in the market Place.

Step in the Construction of IFE Matrix:
Here we have using weighted rating system for the construction of Internal Factor Evaluation
Matrix. Some of important steps involved in the construction internal factor evaluation
Matrix are given below:

In the first Column, we have list down 12 Strength and weakness of education sector.

In the Second Column, we have assigned weight to each factor ranging from (0.0 not
important 1 most important).Professional development staff has Greater weight should be
given to this sector which have greater influence on the School performance and the sum of
all weight must equal than one.

Now rate each factor ranging from 1 to 4 for all school in analysis. Here rating 1 represent
major weakness, 2 rating shows minor weakness. Similarly, Rating 3 indicates minor strength
whereas rating 4 shows major strength. It means that weakness must receive 1 or 2 rating
while strength must get 3 or 4 rating. Calculate weight score by multiplying each factor’s

weighted score for each variable.

The total weighted score range 1 to 4 (where 1 is low, 4 is high and 2.5 is average) regardless
of the total number of internal factors used in the analysis. If total weighted score is less
than 2.5 it indicate that the organization is weak internally. On the other hand, the score
above 2.5 show strong internal position. An internal factor could be included twice in the IFE
Matrix if the factor is both strength and weakness.

Aga Khan School weight Score of 3.1 indicate a good internal position because its show more

We have use Extended SWOT analysis identifies four starting points for creating strategies or for
formulation of development actions:

S-O is Maxi-Maxi" Strategy (Strategies that use strengths to maximize opportunities).

W-O is"Maxi-Mini" Strategy (Strategies that use strengths to minimize threats.)

S-T is "Mini-Maxi" Strategy (Strategies that minimize weaknesses by taking advantage of

opportunities.)

W-T is "Mini-Mini" Strategy (Strategies that minimize weaknesses and avoid threats.)

27

 CONCLUSION
In this project I've learned many new concepts. We saw and learned through the
practical examples of the entire concept. We came to know how this organization
works. What is their mission and vision. What strategies they apply. What kind of
policies they make.

Throughout the interview with the head teacher, we came to know about the
threats and challenges the organization faces, about their strengths and
opportunities. We got the detailed understanding about their organization, how
they work under each other and how the management looks after the organization.

We also came to know about their training activities and how the HR department
works to get optimum output.

The overall experience was good enough to understand the concepts through this
practical real life example of an organization.
