EDUCATION PROBLEMS IN PAKISTAN

At present, the education sector is facing crisis just like other major sectors of the country. Following are the major problems in education system of Pakistan:• Firstly: The education system of Pakistan

divided into two different mediums one is English and other Urdu. This sort of act creates desperateness among students. • Secondly: A big problem is that there are no

equal funds distribution is available to the provinces as a reason the schools in Baluchistan is not much groomed as in Punjab. This prevail the ignorance in the province where population is small but ignorance is spreading like a flue.

• Thirdly: Gender discrimination is another problem the reason why population is living in Khyber Pakhtun Khaw and frontier not willing to send their girls to the schools. They feel it is only boy’s activity to go to the schools and girls are harm to so.• Fourthly: Lack of technical education is another big

mistake in our education. These days’ parents want their kids to learn that stuff which will create a lot of money in future and this does not take so long to earn.• Fifthly: Funds are not sufficient to meet the require

need of the education demands. At least adequate funding should be available to the department to meet necessary needs.• Finally: Poverty is another factor that resists poor

children to come at schools it is also need to be address by subsidizing fees in the government sector schools.
