Public-Private Partnership (PPP) is the best solution in this respect. When the Government collaborates with other actors as the private sectors, civil social club, independent experts then it attains its responsibilities finer than doing all this individually, because PPPs can achieve the results by enhancing the potential and boosting up the availability of resources. The main objective of the study was to check the role of public private partnership in provision of physical facilities in the schools running under Punjab Education Foundation in District Bhakkar. The field based, exploratory type of study was conducted in District Bhakka and was strengthened from data collection.
