This study is based on a survey conducted in terms of collecting data from various government and public schools in Multan City. The survey followed a qualitative phenomenon approach to know about the challenges faced by the teachers of public schools in Multan city. The schools were selected from all levels. At the first, it was the plan to involve teachers from different schools. However, the absence of equipment coerced the surveyors to collect data from the top ten English medium public schools in Multan city. Hence, a semi-structured interview-based questionnaire was designed to gain insights into the topic. Furthermore, statistical analysis assists the study to get findings and recommendations.
