Pakistan needs reforms in School and education System

Posted on at


Though we see the literacy rate in Pakistan little better if compare to a decade ago, now it is about 50%, in which male literacy is more than female literacy rate. At international level Pakistan’s position in literacy is worst amongst nations. The role of government school is less in spreading knowledge as compared to private sector.   In Pakistan school system runs in two methods, Government school system and Private School system and syllabus of both sectors has vast difference to each other.  This is fact and we must confess that private sector played a very important role to provide modern quality education.  Students who got education from private school are now at very important offices of the governments sectors as well as they are providing services in foreign too.  Private school concentrates to all fields which is related to student   life and character.  One thing I have seen in private school, development of confident, elimination of shyness and course are related with the books of modern era which are essential to fulfill the demand of modern requirements.  From basic education to Higher education, teacher gives the students lessons to their best keeping in front of them modern demands.

 

Government school provide huge funds to school staff and teachers but their role and method of teaching to students is the worst ever seen. In mountainous places like Battagram , Allai, Kohistan and remote areas  of provinces Punjab, Sindh and Baluchitan teacher just come at the end of month for salaries only, all because of government negligence on checking and inspecting.  That is mostly see in rulers areas of the country while when we see the urban school, where teacher are present but they do not have enough knowledge and training to equip the student to modern demand of knowledge and education. In all views and dimension, one can easy guess, government is just wasting of money on salaries of untrained teachers and school buildings.

 

On the other hand government school student’s Syllabus is not fulfilling the modern demands of education, and mostly student seem non active in social lives.  They are bound in coming days to face their hard working life, all because of government school system.

Is government deliberately promotes duel standard of education to stop a common man of nation to come forward for playing the important role.

This is considerable and obvious middle class is 60% of majority of population, while government totally neglect his role by providing him low standard education by the staff whose role is just to get salaries. 

There are two solvable options,

  1. Government should finish all private schools and make the education equal for all nation  and publish same syllabus for all, either one is rich or poor.

Or

  1. Government should finish all government school and encourage private school system and announce scholar ship for poor student.
