Abstract
Basically aims at exploring whether a single definitive structure for secondary and higher secondary education is appropriate for Pakistan or not. The results show that the pedagogical and pastoral environment of the Higher Secondary Schools Scheme (HSSS) gradually improved between 1987‐94, although various factors like financial constraints, lack of physical facilities etc. prevailed in these institutions. It further explores the fact that not only has enrolment in grade XI increased in these institutions, but pass rates in XII have also been improving annually. The analysis of Boards’ results indicates that the achievement of students in arts subjects was better than that of students in science subjects. Gender did not appear to be a significant indicator in this regard. High correlation was found between enrolment and passing.
