Development Projects

Our academics are accredited professionals and published authors who are passionate about teaching and connected to industry networks. They take all this experience with them to the classroom to enrich and guide your learning experience. Primary sector in India includes state funded schools, semi-aided schools and private schools. Pupils normally transfer to post-primary or middle school at the age of twelve. Bilal was the only participant from a government school, while all other participants were from the private schools. “We were given three themes by the organizers — ‘The creation of Pakistan’, ‘The evolution in the constitution of Islamic Republic of Pakistan’ and ‘Pakistan’s resources’.

Introduction To Primary Education

Our programme is subject to constant review both internally, externally and through the GTCS, the professional body that accredits all Initial Teacher Education and with whom you will register after graduation, therefore some details are subject to change. The school draws up an individual development plan for all pupils who receive extra supervision in addition to basic support, describing the educational objectives for that pupil. It indicates the level that the pupil can achieve and the support that he or she will need to achieve it. The second United Nations Millennium Development Goal was to “ensure that, by 2015, children everywhere, boys and girls alike, will be able to complete a full course of primary schooling.” This goal was missed but significant progress has been made. In 1970, 28% of primary-school-age children in the world were not attending school, today this share has decline to 9% – equivalent to 60 million children not in primary education as the first visualization below shows. UNICEF’s growing technical capacity and focus on assessment of learning, and international expertise also provides an opportunity to add value to Pakistan’s efforts to improve assessment systems.

Other subjects are German, mathematics, science, art, music, and physical education. The Grundschule lasts for 6years in the Länder of Berlin and Brandenburg and for 4years in all the other Länder. There is also a marked difference between urban and rural areas in terms of children’s enrollment share between the public and private sector. Share of enrollments in private primary schools is much higher in urban areas–about 60 percent of total enrollments. Private sector includes low- to high-cost private and elite schools, stand-alone private schools, franchise schools, schools funded by government subsidies, and no-fee schools run by philanthropists and non-government organizations .

This wealth of experience now provides the evidence, know-how, and momentum for UNICEF to support federal and provincial governments in broadening ALPs within education systems to bring OOSC into primary education, with a specific focus on adolescent girls. Primary education in Pakistan was devolved as a provincial subject with the 18th Amendment to the constitution in 2010. We need a radical strategic shift on multiple fronts – from improving outreach to the quality of learning outcomes.

The annual average of teaching hours in primary education in 2021 was 792 hours (Education at a Glance. OECD Indicators 2021. Spanish report. Image 3.1 [extract from table D1.1], p. 103). After the 18th Amendment, education became a provincial responsibility which expected more funding being available for primary education. However, additional resource allocation is not evident while capacity constraints at the provincial and district levels mean value for money in public expenditures on education is not materializing.

The quality of teaching must meet the norms laid down by the Education Inspectorate. Some believe children who are first-generation learners with illiterate parents are not capable of greatness. But some of the cleverest, most committed and most creative children come from slum areas. We face big challenges to help the world’s poorest people and ensure that everyone sees benefits from economic growth. Data and research help us understand these challenges and set priorities, share knowledge of what works, and measure progress. Project X CODE is a proven reading intervention with a new online subscription, for children who are a year or more behind in their word reading.

Sindh Schools Monitoring System

Pakistan has 324,561 public sector primary school teachers and 98,236 from the private sector. According to the latest available data Pakistan has 78 percent professionally trained teachers at the primary school level against a global average of 89.1 percent. If we break down this percentage on a gender basis, a bias is clearly evident.

International Applicants

These approaches drew strength from Israel's medium-to-low rankings on international scales of scholastic performance, and from growing criticism of instructional methods that gave pupils excessive degrees of creative and scholastic latitude. This is reflected in the growing use of strictly defined and rigid instruction frameworks for the entire pupil population, as well as in the development of a culture of high-stakes testing. Our learner-centred approach is characterised by workshops, tutorials, seminars, self-study and lectures, supported by an online learning environment. Courses are assessed through a variety of approaches, including written, oral, coursework and school-based assessments.

Technical School Certificate

It is mandatory for all the children to enroll in this stage of education as per law; the government of India also recognized the fact that primary education is the foundation for entire super structure of nation. Literature available on the status of primary education in Pakistan provides substantial evidence about the country’s unsatisfactory performance in comparison to the lower middle income countries in the South East Asian region. In order to provide for the different needs of learners, the designation of primary schools may vary given the economic situation of the country. Primary schools which, due to insufficient numbers of pupils, lack funds for their maintenance may be affiliated to other schools or allowed to continue operating in the same premises as structural units of those schools. The potential scope of designations and curricula implemented by general education schools is established in the Rules for the Creation of the Network of Schools Providing the Formal Education Curricula approved by the Lithuanian Government.
