Abstract
This study aims to compare the teaching competencies of primary school teachers through academic qualifications. It may be helpful to find out the abilities of the teachers in government primary schools. It may also help the administration for training programs according to present needs. The population of this study comprises headteachers of all high schools (administrating primary section), of both genders of Multan district. There were 119 male head teachers of high schools and 63 female headteachers of high schools. The sample was selected by using cluster sampling and systematic random sampling technique, which resulted in 25 male head teachers of high schools and 25 female headteachers of high schools being included in the sample. For data collection, two questionnaires based on Likert’s Scale about their primary teachers’ competencies, one for highly qualified and one for low qualified teachers were used. The analysis of the data shows that majority of teachers have no such required competencies but highly qualified teachers are better than low qualified teachers. To improve the outcome through developing the competencies of teachers some recommendations are also presented in the last section of the study.
