Annexure-3
Monthly Income and Social Mobility of Students and Faculty in Different Educational Institutions in Pakistan
The government of Pakistan gives income in quintiles. These are calculated in Appendix-C of PIHS (2002). The income is in Pakistani rupees per month per capita is as follows:
1st QRs. 620.45 and below
2nd QRs. 620.46 - 769.9
3rd QRs. 769.1-947.53
4th QRs. 947.54-1254.53
5th QRs. 1254.54 and above.
For this survey, the present author has calculated income in rupees per month and divided it according to socio-economic class. This information has been collected in response to section 1 of the questionnaire which is given in Annexure-2.
Section-1: Monthly Income
The figures below give the monthly income of the families of students and faculty as reported by them in our sample. Those who have not written the income, as well as those those who have, have been tabulated separately. The correspondence with socio-economic class, however rough, is as follows:
Working (lower) class=Upto Rs 5000 per month.
Lower middle class=5001 - 10,000
Middle class=10,001-20,000
Upper middle class=20,001 - 50,000
Lower upper class=50,001 - 100,000
Middle upper class=Above 100,000
The income is for the whole family and not of the individuals earning it. In most cases income of female has not been written presumably because they are housewives and do not get paid. In case their income is written, the family income is calculated by adding their income to the income of the male earning member's income.

Survey 2003
Survey of Schools and Madrassas,
This survey was conducted between December 2002 and April 2003 with the help of two research assistants Imran Farid and Shahid Gondal whom I take this opportunity to thank. The survey was conducted in Islamabad (myself), Rawalpindi (myself), Peshawar (myself), Karachi (myself), Mandi Bahauddin (Shahid Gondal), Lahore, Faisalabad and Multan (Imran Farid). It was a stratified, non-random survey because a complete list of all target institutions was not available. Moreover, we had to restrict ourselves to urban areas because we neither had the time nor the resources to venture into rural ones.
The major stratas are (1) Urdu-medium school, (2) elitist English-medium schools (3) Cadet Colleges/Public Schools and (4) madrassas. Gender-wise breakdown is available but is not given here for the sake of brevity. The following chart helps explain these strata:

In the case of the madrassas the range is higher because some of the sanvia class groups had older boys who had joined the seminary late. In the O'level groups both 10th and 11th were represented. Urdu-medium schools had only class-10 clusters.
The questionnaire for students is reproduced here.
