Quality is a central value of any organization that is embedded in its daily operations. The word service has an important value and variety of meaning (Abdullah, 2006), which poses challenges drawing up a generic viewpoint of service quality. Petruzzellis, Uggento and Romanazzi (2006) stated that service tends to be vague and very difficult to evaluate in terms of quality. Crosby, Evans and Cowless (1990) determined that quality management directly relates to customer satisfaction, whereas, Service quality is a more recent concept, but widely accepted and implemented. There are still numerous challenges and disagreements about this relatively new concept. However, Abdullah (2005) argued that Service quality has been linked to increase in profitability and, therefore, considered as a vital approach to ensure a competitive edge over competitors.  \nEducation is one of the most crucial factors to strengthen the social and economic situation of a nation and empowering generation with skills and knowledge. Quality education plays its significant role for the development of the nation due to the emergence of global competition in education and technology in 21st century (Awan & Zia, 2015) . The Pakistan National Policy on education thrive to widening the access of education by improving the quality of secondary education through enhancing the enrolment, increasing retention through less dropout rates and enrolled the students for the achievement of national objectives (National Education Policy, 2016).Pakistan is taking the operational steps for the development of education sector. It is said that the education is a fundamental right for all the people throughout the world. Educational organizations are extremely customer sloping service commerce besieged to build up relationship (Sultan and Wong, 2010) . Service industries play a vital role for the economic development. Better quality plays a vital role for the development of education institution (Saeed, 2014).) . The satisfaction of the customers is an important factor for the development of education institution.
