Abstract

An educational institution is a place where people of different ages gain an education. In Pakistan, it includes primary, middle, high schools, inter colleges, technical and vocational institutions, degree colleges and universities. They provide a large variety of learning environments and learning spaces. This article figures out educational institutions development prediction, using the model of linear regression. This study has analyzed the development of a number of educational institutions using statistical analysis and predicts the future development of educational institutions yearly. The data is taken from “Handbook of statistics on Pakistan economy” time series data from 1970 to 2016. The population was affected by limited numbers of educational institutions; the female institutions at every level is less than male, and the ratio of institutional development is lower as compared to increasing population (like the third world countries). The results suggest a need of further development of educational institutions at every level, for male and female, especially the female institutions because the female population in Pakistan is 52% of total population.
