Schools and universities in Pakistan face significant challenges due to multiple burdens that affect both students and the education system as a whole. A major problem is the lack of adequate infrastructure and resources, resulting in classrooms, outdated teaching materials and inadequate facilities. The pressure to perform well in exams has created an environment where rote learning and rote learning take precedence over critical thinking and creativity, creating a system that adequately prepares students for real-world challenges. Can’t prepare.
Additionally, the high cost of education, coupled with limited access to financial aid, limits many students’ ability to pursue higher education. Universities struggle with limited funding and faculty shortages, further reducing the quality of teaching and research. This situation is exacerbated by socioeconomic disparities that prevent students from disadvantaged communities from gaining equal access to educational opportunities, contributing to cycles of inequality and inhibiting personal and professional development.
