Finding out the answer to these sorts of questions is what courts are for. The answer depends on the details, but from the brief description given, I'm inclined toward the position that it's probably your fault, or a mixture of fault, but with you being the one mostly in the wrong. People who are backing up are supposed to take extra caution.

While travelling on a road inside school grounds. Approach a car park to right car waiting to turn Car pulls out of a car park hits right hand side of the car Who is liable?

There is a lot more to determining this, but both parties will be partially at fault. The person behind the other car had the duty to try to get out of the way, the person backing up had the duty to see before he backed up. If it is as simple as stated, it would most likely be 10-20% fault for the person who got hit, 80-90% for the person backing up.

Who is at fault when a person is pulling out of a parking spot and going slowly using caution and a car traveling the parking lot collide?

A vehicle traveling in a parking lot has established use of the lane and the right of way. A vehicle in a parking space and backing into the lane must yield to oncoming traffic. Therefore, if a vehicle is backing out of a parking space and pulls into the path of an oncoming vehicle that has already established the lane, the vehicle backing would be at fault for the accident. However, if the vehicle which established use of the lane had an opportunity to avoid hitting the vehicle backing out of the space and failed to do so, there could be comparative negligence on both vehicles or on the one who had the opportunity to avoid the accident.
