User-friendly curriculum is the most important aspect of education and should be developed by renowned academicians
PESHAWAR: Education is the basic right of every Pakistani as per Article 25-A of the Constitution. But unfortunately, the literacy rate in Pakistan is dangerously low. A suitable education provides a child with lifelong benefits and a user-friendly curriculum is the most important aspect of education and it should be developed by the renowned academicians of our country and that too, according to its needs and requirements. The curriculum should include the history of the subcontinent as well as modern technology. It should also include moral education, as well as incorporate current affairs. The curriculum should be reviewed and updated regularly after every three years.
The same syllabus should be used for all Pakistani students, no matter how rich or poor they are. This, in turn will ultimately end discrimination.
