Idara-e-Taleem-o-Aagahi (ITA) was formed in 2000. ITAs primary focus is comprehensive education reforms beginning with public sector schools at all levels of education which are in a state of decay. It also works in other sectors of education, such as non-formal and literacy programs for disadvantaged groups like child labourers, women & minorities. Along with working with the government, ITA also collaborates with the corporate sector and international development agents. Currently, ITA is working with UNESCO, USAID, Unilever, and Oxfam, along with other partners. ITA focuses on influencing policy and systems in education. ITA has been greatly involved in the formulation of the Draft National Educational Policy, 2008.

The current work and partnerships extend across Lahore, Sheikhupura, Kasur, Rawalpindi, Sahiwal, Jhang, Multan, Muzaffargarh, Chakwal, Gujrat, Sindh, Balochistan, Islamabad Capital Territory and Azad Jammu and Kashmir (AJK).
