Education in Sindh

Pakistan’s seaport province Sindh plays vital role in economy, but in return power players ignore education sector of Sindh, resting it is on lowest level, though there are some urban areas institutions have shown considerable improvement. However, due to the corruption in this sector, the quality of education is unfortunately on a down root. The government must look at the total enrollment, number of out of school children, too. Sindh government spends 22 percent on education which is indeed a healthy figure.

From 2013 the education sector is a depressing picture to have a look on the quality of education. A recent estimation shows less participation of boys and they are compelled to do the work of child labor especially, in rural areas due to poverty. The education of girls is satisfying in the cities, but girls are deprived from education in most rural and urban areas. Every government especially PPP after success in 2008 election had promised to work upon the poor education system in the province. But they could not fulfill its commitment no any proper policies for education brought for development.

The central government has also ignored this matter and the NGOs also don’t focus on rural areas to build up the broken system of education in the province. The government has to come up with appropriate measures in order to rise up the literacy rate by building up the broken system.
