Education
Education is a leading
instrument of nation building
and economic growth of people.
Here, at POL, our key focus is on
education, which we are keenly
supporting in a number of ways.
POL focuses on education at the
basic, primary, secondary and
higher secondary levels.
Since inception POL has spent
approx. Rs 96 million to improve
the infrastructure of government
educational institutions through
up gradation of schools &
colleges of the vicinity by
constructing class rooms,
toilets, providing computers and
science laboratory apparatuses
and also providing furniture and
fixtures that serve more than
50,000 students.
POL is not only spending on
social welfare activities of its
areas of operation but we are
also running our own Technical
Institute, Higher Secondary
Schools and Degree College
Khaur with well-equipped lab
facilities, modern library, highly
qualified teaching staff and
facilities for extracurricular
activities.
Dr. Rashad Institute of Technical
Education
Dr. Rashad Institute of Technical
Education Khaur started in
2015, is now growing to become
a full-fledged institute of
Technical Education. At present
there are 80 students studying
in Electrical and Petroleum
technologies in 3 classes i.e.
first, second and third year.
Registration with TEVTA, Lahore
was acquired in the Electrical
and Electronics technologies
in 2015. Affiliation with Punjab
Board of Technical Education,
Lahore was attained to start
the Diploma in Associate
Engineering (03 years course) in
the above mentioned two fields
in September, 2015. People of
Khaur and its adjacent areas
are employed in petroleum
and other technical fields
of petroleum technology.
Therefore, syllabus of petroleum
was sent to TEVTA board for
review / approval after which,
registration and affiliation was
attained from TEVTA and PBTE,
Lahore. In the year 2016 DAE in
petroleum technology was also
started in the Institute to help
the local people.
Dr. Rashad Degree College
The college, started as an
Intermediate College in 2007,
was upgraded to a Degree

the objective of providing quality
education to the next generation
of Khaur and its surroundings.
Two-year bachelor’s programs
in pure sciences, including
Botany, Zoology, Chemistry,
Double Maths and Physics
were initially started. However
these programs now have
only 16 students, as the HEC
converted the two-year program
into an Associate’s Degree
Program therefore the college
also shifted to a four-year BS
program.
