Primary Education In Pakistan

Education is the systematic process of instruction for the development of character or mental powers. The primary stage of education is of prime importance for the edifice of career. Soundness and tidiness of this stage enable a child to raise a standard of his personality. Unfortunately the importance of this stage is ignored to a large extent in our country. The drawbacks are multifarious in nature and require considerations on the part of the responsible. They have just followed the same principle of making policies in closed rooms and draft curriculum which was followed in the colonial era. Even now a days in our country, both the public sector and private sector have the capacity to publish books yet not according to the psychological level of the subject. They have borrowed ideas from elsewhere in the world and feel proud to present it in seminars and workshops. The parents of today are also responsible to a greater extinct as they are not questioning the effects of these curriculum. They just pushing their young ones and finally opt for tuitions, which is not the right solution. The amount they spend on borrowing ideas and then its practical implantation will be in my opinion far more less than the amount required for the research to know the psychology of the subject (Pakistani Children). Then another drawback of our primary education system is that of different school system for varied classes of the society....again following the agenda of the colonial rulers, empowering a particular section of the society, typically known as the feudal lords, to run the affairs of the state and to be easily affected by the name of modernism, enlighten moderation etc. Another drawback the teachers are also following the typical trait of punishing the students harshly.. re-think mr.teacher. Schools' authorities in the private sector are also highly responsible for the poor status of primary education system in our country. They have interests in building of the students but to earn more and more money even they are also not highly qualified, They have the money they are the managers, leaders, administrators having a single agenda...Boss is always right. The government should channelise and monitor the schools in private sector.

Being a Pakistani I request all the readers particularly the parents to question the rulers regarding this very sensitive issue.
