AIMS AND OBJECTIVES OF EDUCATION POLICY(1998 – 2010)

AIMS

Education is a powerful catalyzing agent which provides mental, physical, ideological

and moral training to individuals, so as to enable them to have full consciousness of their

mission, of their purpose in life and equip them to achieve that purpose. It is an instrument for

the spiritual development as well as the material fulfillment of human beings. Within the context

of Islamic perception, education is an instrument for developing the attitudes of individuals in

accordance with the values of righteousness to help build a sound Islamic society.

After independence in 1947 efforts were made to provide a definite direction to education

in Pakistan. Quaid-i-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah laid down a set of aims that provided

guidance to all educational endeavours in the country. This policy, too has sought inspiration and

guidance from those directions and the Constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan. The policy

cannot put it in a better way than the Quaid’s words:

“You know that the importance of Education and the right type of education cannot be

overemphasized. Under foreign rule for over a century, sufficient attention has not been

paid to the education of our people and if we are to make real, speedy and substantial

progress, we must earnestly tackle this question and bring our people in consonance with

our history and culture, having regard for the modern conditions and vast developments

that have taken place all over the world.”

“There is no doubt that the future of our State will and must greatly depend upon the type

of education we give to our children, and the way in which we bring them up as future

citizens of Pakistan. Education does not merely mean academic education. There is

immediate and urgent need for giving scientific and technical education to our people in

order to build up our future economic life and to see that our people take to science,

commerce, trade and particularly well-planned industries. We should not forget that we

have to compete with the world which is moving very fast towards growth and

development.”

“At the same time we have to build up the character of our future generation. We should

try, by sound education, to instill into them the highest sense of honour, integrity,

3

responsibility and selfless service to the nation. We have to see that they are fully

qualified and equipped to play their part in various branches of national life in a manner

which will do honour to Pakistan.”

These desires of the Quaid have been reflected in the Constitution of the Islamic Republic

of Pakistan and relevant articles are:

The state shall endeavour, in respect of the Muslims of Pakistan:

a. to make the teachings of the Holy Quran and Islamiat compulsory and

encourage and facilitate the learning of Arabic language to secure correct and

exact printing and publishing of the Holy Quran;

b. to promote unity amongst them and the observance of Islamic moral

standards;

Provide basic necessities of life, such as food, clothing, housing, education and medical

relief for all such citizens irrespective of sex, caste, creed or race as are permanently or

temporarily unable to earn their livelihood on account of infirmity, sickness or

unemployment;

Remove illiteracy and provide free and compulsory secondary education within minimum

possible period.

Enable the people of different areas, through education, training, agricultural and

industrial development and other methods, to participate fully in all the forms of national

activities including employment in the service of Pakistan;

The State shall discourage parochial, racial, tribal, sectarian and provincial prejudices

among the citizens.

Reduce disparity in the income and earnings of individuals, including persons in various

classes of the service of Pakistan.

Steps shall be taken to ensure full participation of women in all the spheres of national

life.

4

The vision is to transform Pakistani nation into an integrated, cohesive entity, that can

compete and stand up to the challenges of the 21 st Century. The Policy is formulated to realize

the vision of educationally well-developed, politically united, economically prosperous, morally

sound and spiritually elevated nation.

OBJECTIVES

To make the Qur’anic principles and Islamic practices as an integral part of curricula so

that the message of the Holy Quran could be disseminated in the process of education as well as

training. To educate and train the future generation of Pakistan as true practicing Muslims who

would be able to usher in the 21 st century and the next millennium with courage, confidence,

wisdom and tolerance.

To achieve universal primary education by using formal and informal techniques to

provide second opportunity to school drop-outs by establishing basic education community

schools all over the country.

To meet the basic learning needs of a child in terms of learning tools and contents.

To expand basic education qualitatively and quantitatively by providing the maximum

opportunities to every child of free access to education. The imbalances and disparities in the

system will be removed to enhance the access with the increased number of more middle and

secondary schools.

To ensure that all the boys and girls, desirous of entering secondary education, get their

basic right through the availability of the schools.

To lay emphasis on diversification of curricula so as to transform the system from

supply-oriented to demand oriented. To attract the educated youth to world-of-work from various

educational levels is one of the policy objectives so that they may become productive and useful

citizens and contribute positively as members of the society.

To make curriculum development a continuous process; and to make arrangements for

developing a uniform system of education.

To prepare the students for the world of work, as well as pursuit of professional and

specialized higher education.

5

To increase the effectiveness of the system by institutionalizing in-service training of

teachers, teacher trainers and educational administrators. To upgrade the quality of pre-service

teacher training programmes by introducing parallel programmes of longer duration at post-

secondary and post-degree levels.

To develop a viable framework for policy, planning and development of teacher

education programmes, both in-service and pre-service.

To develop opportunities for technical and vocational education in the country for

producing trained manpower, commensurate with the needs of industry and economic

development goals.

To improve the quality of technical education so as to enhance the chances of

employment of Technical and Vocational Education (TVE) graduates by moving from a static,

supply-based system to a demand-driven system.

To popularize information technology among students of all ages and prepare them for

the next century. To emphasize different roles of computer as a learning tool in the classroom

learning about computers and learning to think and work with computers and to employ

information technology in planning and monitoring of educational programmes.

To encourage private sector to take a percentage of poor students for free education.

To institutionalize the process of monitoring and evaluation from the lowest to the

highest levels. To identify indicators for different components of policy, in terms of quality and

quantity and to adopt corrective measures during the process of implementation.

To achieve excellence in different fields of higher education by introducing new

disciplines/emerging sciences in the universities, and transform selected disciplines into centres

of advanced studies, research and extension.

To upgrade the quality of higher education by bringing teaching, learning and research

process in line with international standards.

ASSESSMENT AND EVALUATION

Assessment, appraisal, or evaluation is a means of determining how far the objectives of

the curriculum have been realized. What really matters is the methodology employed for such

determination. As is now recognized, performance on the basis of content-oriented tests alone

does not provide an adequate measure of a student’s knowledge and ability to use information in

a purposeful or meaningful way; the implication, then, is that effective and rewarding techniques

should be developed for evaluating the kind and content of teaching and learning that is taking

place and for bringing about improvement in both. The following points, while developing the

tests/questions may be kept in view:

1. Proper care should be taken to prepare the objective-type and constructed-response

questions relating to knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis and synthesis,

keeping in view the specific instructional objectives of the syllabus and the command

words for the questions.

2. There should be at least two periodic/monthly tests in addition to routine class/tests.

Teachers are expected to develop and employ assessment strategies which are

dynamic in approach and diverse in design. When used in combination, they should

properly accommodate every aspect of a student’s learning.

3. In addition to the final public examination, two internal examinations should be

arranged during the academic year for each class.

4. Classroom examinations offer the best and most reliable evaluation of how well

students have mastered certain information and achieved the course objectives.

Teachers should adopt innovative teaching and assessment methodologies to prepare

the students for the revised pattern of examination. The model papers, instructional

objectives, definitions of cognitive levels and command words and other guidelines

included in this book must be kept in view during teaching and designing the test

items for internal examination.

7

DEFINITION OF COGNITIVE LEVELS

Knowledge:

This requires knowing and remembering facts and figures, vocabulary and contexts, and the

ability to recall key ideas, concepts, trends, sequences, categories, etc. It can be taught and

evaluated through questions based on: who, when, where, what, list, define, describe, identify,

label, tabulate, quote, name, state, etc.

Understanding:

This requires understanding information, grasping meaning, interpreting facts, comparing,

contrasting, grouping, inferring causes/reasons, seeing patterns, organizing parts, making links,

summarizing, solving, identifying motives, finding evidence, etc. It can be taught and evaluated

through questions based on: why how, show, demonstrate, paraphrase, interpret, summarize,

explain, prove, identify the main idea/theme, predict, compare, differentiate, discuss, chart the

course/direction, report, solve, etc.

Application:

This requires using information or concepts in new situations, solving problems, organizing

information and ideas, using old ideas to create new one and generalizing from given facts,

analyzing relationships, relating knowledge from several areas, drawing conclusions, evaluating

worth, etc. It can be taught and evaluated through questions based on: distinguish, analyze, show

relationship, propose an alternative, prioritize, give reasons for, categorize, illustrate,

corroborate, compare and contrast, create, design, formulate, integrate, rearrange,

reconstruct/recreate, reorganize, predict consequences etc.
