The study investigated the status of Government Primary Schools for girls in Tehkal Bala region of district Peshawar Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. The study was carried through observation and open ended questionnaire method. The slogan of provincial government regarding imposing educational emergency seems failed in this region. The major finding of the study showed that condition of girls’ primary education is disappointing in the region. The number of government girls’ primary school is not according to the requirement of the locality. The situation of existing school is unsatisfactory. The study prevail that primary schools are deprived of basic facilities. Traditional attitude of teachers is still in practice at primary level even after introduction of multiple accountability body among which the prominent one is monitoring team. Problem of teacher student ratio still exist even after recruitment of new teachers due to non-availability of classrooms.
