PAKISTAN'S EDUCATION SYSTEM

Education is a must for a happy life and a successful career; but it's only achieved by a good system, a system where a student's actual performance matters not his/her grades, where a child is taught skills that the world need, not the silly facts that billions of people already know! but the thing is that a good education system doesn't exist in at least this world. the world is not working on it so is Pakistan.

              No Teaching Quality

in this developing modern world, teaching is considered a crucial profession. Teachers are given special training to enter this field. Unfortunately in Pakistan, most of the teachers are the people who couldn't be successful with their actual field and didn't know what to do with their degrees!

         Limited Fields

There are thousands of fields in the world that are highly respected. Students can choose to enroll in whatever field they are interested in but in Pakistan, students are literally told to choose between Medical and Engineering! Girls mostly get enrolled in Medical and boys in Engineering, isn't that weird?

these two are the only fields that are highly respected, and mainly the "Plan A" of everyone while other fields are referred to as minors and their "plan B". So basically there is no clear path for a career.

      A profitable Business 

Nowadays Education has mainly become a business. The number of private schools is increasing day-by-day, now you would be thinking, " what's wrong with that?" the answer is that the schools have no quality Education just a copious amount of fees, and surprisingly people send their children to these typically expensive schools in order to show off! not knowing that it will destroy their child's life!

        Cramming AKA Ratta 

Cramming, mostly called "Ratta" in Pakistan is the most horrible thing ever in my accordance! Google defines this as: " study intensively over a short period of time just before an exam" but I call it "intelligence destroyer" because every time you get to learn something new, you are told to just memorize it rather than understand it.

        No Practical Work 

In Pakistan, students read books to pass exams, which is quite a traditional way, it makes Pakistan seem like it's living in past! No experimenting, no physical or practical work just theoretical Education! Even degree holders don't have any skill to earn a handsome amount of money or compete with the modern age.

          Conclusion

Nothing has really changed in Pakistan's education system for years, I can't even hope for something better, I'm not being a so-called "pessimist" but a realist!     

however, there are some schools in the minority that provide quality Education and I study in one of them and I'm proud of that. All I want to say, especially to the students is that the world is your oyster, do what you want to do.
