In a quest to achieve efficient language learning, the history of ELT saw many methods being used in English language learning contexts. Communicative Language Teaching method (CLT), being regarded as a modern and effective method of language teaching, has been implemented in many ESL/EFL teaching contexts. However, whereas the method has been successful in some contexts,the implementation of CLT has not been without problems in many Asian countries as CLT has been in clash with local cultures of learning. Pakistan is still following a traditional ELT approach.There is a need to modernize ELT in Pakistan, and one aspect of modernization is to adopt a current ELT approach. This research is an effort in the direction. The aim is to discover the learning needs of Pakistani state boarding schools students to assess the implementation of CLT in these schools at secondary level. It will also help in ascertaining if CLT is suitable for the Pakistani boarding schools' ELT context.
