Problems in
Education
Following are the
problems in education in Pakistan.
1. Education System is
based on Unequal Lines
The educational
system of Pakistan is based on unequal lines. Medium of education is different
in both, public and private sector. This creates a sort of disparity among
people, dividing them into two segments.
2. Regional Disparity
Regional disparity
is also a major cause. The schools in Baluchistan (The Largest Province Of
Pakistan By Area) are not that much groomed as that of Punjab (The Largest
Province Of Pakistan By Population). In FATA, the literacy rate is deplorable
constituting 29.5% in males and 3% in females.
3. Ratio of Gender
Discrimination
The ratio of gender
discrimination is a cause which is projecting the primary school ratio of
boys & girls which is 10:4 respectively. For the last few years there
has been an increase in the growth of private schools. That not only harms the
quality of education but creates a gap among haves and has not.
4. Lack of Technical
Education
The lack of
technical education is a biggest flaw in the educational policy that has never
been focused before. Therefore, less technical people mean less.
5. Funds
The allocation of
funds for education is very low. It is only 1.5 to 2.0 percent of the total
GDP. It should be around 7% of the total GDP.
6. Untrained Teachers
The teachers in
government schools are not well trained. People who do not get job in any
other sector, they try their luck in educational system. They are not
professionally trained teachers so they are unable to train a nation.
7. Poverty
Poverty is also
another factor that restricts the parents to send their children to public or private
schools. So, they prefer to send their children to madrassas where education is
totally free.
