Projected Achievements by 2015:
• In ECE the National EFA Plan (2001-15) target is 50%
net enrolment rate by 20015. Against the said target
the present (2009-10) net enrolment rate is 34%. As
such Pakistan has to increase NER up to 16% in next
five years i.e at the rate of around 3% per annum
which is achievable in terms of access/enrolment.
However, so far as the quality is concerned we may
not be able to provide quality ECE Programmes
because of various factors and barriers.

NET PRIMARY ENROLMENT RATE – PROJECTED STATUS BY 2015Progress in net primary enrolments during the last five years has
occurred at an average rate of 1% per year. Unless massive changes take place in the education sector, the net enrolment rate is not
expected to exceed 65% by 2015.

COMPLETION / SURVIVAL RATETILL GRADE V
Completion/survival rates to Grade V slipped during the past five years – from 52% in 2004/05 and 58% in 2006/07 to 65% in 2008/09. With
some improvements in poverty levels and assuming that huge investments in good quality education take place in the very near
future, this can be expected to rise, at the most to 70% by 2015.

Achievements:
The 10+ age group adult literacy rate of Pakistan as per national census 1998 was 45% which increased to 58% (male 70%: female 46%) according to the findings of the Pakistan Social and Living

INCREASE IN ADULT LITERACY RATES AND PROJECTED STATUS 2015
Similar to net primary enrolment rates, adult literacy rates (for 10+ years old) moved at a slow pace of almost 1% per annum in the past
five years. At this rate, with more efforts, it is expected to reach a level of not higher than 65% by 2015.

GOAL 5 – GENDER PARITY
“Eliminating gender disparities in Primary and Secondary Education by 2005, and achieving gender equality in education by 2015, with a focus on ensuring
girls full and equal access to and achievement in basic education of good quality;
GENDER PARITY IN PRIMARY EDUCATION
At a value of 0.84, gender parity index for primary education has hardly moved over the past five years. Though fairly close to the target, this
index may reach its target by 2015 – irrespective that the primary enrolment rates may remain fairly low e.g. in KPK, net enrolment rates of only 58% for boys and 45% for girls yields a gender parity index for
primary education of about 0.8.
