Abstract
The private sector in education is playing very important role in Pakistan. A quite reasonable proportion of students, 34% are in private sector schools. The excellent performance of the private sector schools in Federal Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (FBISE) examination inspired the researcher to conduct this study. This descriptive research study had been designed to find out the relationship between private schools management structures and the academic performance in the FBISE examinations at secondary level. The population of the study consisted of secondary schools affiliated with FBISE, Islamabad. The data for management structure score was collected by analyzing the available documents of the schools while the score for academic performance was derived from Annual Result Gazettes of FBISE. It was found that there is a significant relationship between management structure scores and results score for the years 2008, 2009 and 2010. High management structure scores group and their results have significant relationship but Low management structure scores group have a weak positive relationship. The management structure scores and mean scores of the schools have significant relationship too. It was recommended that a training mechanism and minimum qualification standard may be developed for administrators and principals, the schools should display their rules and regulations, sports and games facility should be provided.
