4. observed in this visit that some working school teachers are working well but some
teachers are not working seriously and still they are do not know that what is
Project what is its nature. Some teachers are taking this working children school as
a formal school. They have not right selection of children and some in some centers
Children and their parents do not know about caritas Faisalabad so this is strange.
In these assessment visits we met to parish priests and we told about working children
