7. Example of SWOT Analysis
SWOT Analysis of I.E.R as a Whole.
S
no.
Strengths of I.E.R Weaknesses of I.E.R Opportunities for I.E.R Threats to I.E.R
1. Part of university of Peshawar
which makes it a standard institute
Lack of subject teachers, because which institute have to
hire visiting teachers from different other departments
Implementation of New courses like that of B.Ed(hons) which
boost the professional efficiency of upcoming teachers and is
a greater opportunity for I.E.R to grow up.
Centralization of all institutes and
departments of the university to the vice
chancellor because of which institute is
unable to use funds on its own accord and
need permission of the superiors which
effects daily expenditures and work
2. Highly qualified and professional
staff
Favoritism of few teachers towards students, which
effect their result at the end
Scholarship programs for students which effects the growing
rates of students enrolled in I.E.R
Building of I.E.R is on the very front of the
road because of which it has a greater
security risk.
3. Two main blocks for the assistance
of students equipped with modern
facilities.
No proper system for supervision for short term and long
term teaching practice which results in the wastage of
time for both students and teachers
Arrangements of seminars and conferences by I.E.R with the
collaboration of HEC Pakistan and with other institute and
departments is another opportunity to gain attention of the
outside world which increases its reputation.
High fee structure. It may divert students to
quit studies for higher education like that of
M.S or M. Phil
4. Facility of modern library for
students along with research
assistance for research scholars
Lack of health facilities like there is no handwashing soap
which is very necessary for cleanliness. More over it there
are air conditioners in the class room facilitating students
in summers but here is not heater for winter seasons in
the classroom for the warmth.
Students graduated from I.E.R is another opportunity for the
institute to gain interest of outside people who then wish to
get admission.
5. Co-ordination staff for handling
different problems of institute,
faculty members and students.
Use of Print and electronic media is also a great thing for the
advertisement of the institute.
6. Highly efficient administrative staff
8. Practical Arrangement of Health and Safety
Services
Key points:
• What kind of building structure you want for your school
• What kind of health and safety facilities you want to foster in your
school
• What kind of lessons you want to integrate in the curriculum of
different grades related to health and safety
• Enlisting events that you want to celebrate in your school related to
health and safety

and safety.
