10. generally speaking and no single language can be said to be
common to the whole population.
Urdu language has a common base, in its literary form Urdu
emphasizes words of Persian and Arabic origin. Urdu is
written in a modified version of the Persian script (written
from right to left

11. The 1973 Constitution, however, designated a 15-year transition
period to the Urdu language, after which English would no longer be
used for official purposes. with the respective regional language. It
originated during the Mughal period (1526- 1858) and it literally
means “a camp language”, because it was spoken by the imperial
Mughal troops the official language of the Mughal administration.
Ultimately Urdu attained its stylized, literary form in the 17th and 18th
centuries. The literary language Urdu arose from colloquial Hindustani
before partition. Urdu symbolizes Muslim's shared identity and serves
as a link among the people of Pakistan. After independence, the
Muslim League (as the All-India Muslim League was usually referred
to) promoted Urdu as the national language to help a new Pakistan
state develop an identity, even though few people actually spoke it.
English became the de facto national language. Urdu was unpopular in
East Pakistan.

12. Summary
• Pakistan’s schools fall into four categories. Private elite schools are
English medium.
• Urdu, spoken as a first language by 7% of the population, is the national
language
• Since independence – indeed since the 19th century – English has been
the language
• Early years education must be provided in a child’s home language.
• A strategy for supporting the learning and teaching of English in
Pakistan
• A top priority action is to contribute to the development of a national
language in
education. This should include awareness raising
regarding the importance of mother tongue education in the early years
of schooling.
Experience elsewhere, particularly Southeast Asia and the UK, should be
drawn upon.

13. Conclusion
The strategy proposed in this report derives from an analysis of the complex context in
which English language teaching in Pakistan takes place.
English cannot be considered in a vacuum but must be examined in its broader social
and
educational environment. Furthermore, it suggests that there are ethical implications to
the
development of a strategy for English and that these implications cannot be ignored.
The
approach proposed here, then, is not concerned with ‘reaching the largest number’ of
learners, teachers or other stakeholders, nor does it strain itself to maximise British
‘global
products’. Rather, it seeks to identify how the most valuable contribution to the
development
of Pakistan can be made. If an agency succeeds in having some impact on the national
policy on language in education in general and on the English language strategy which
will
form part of that policy, it may not be possible to quantify that impact.
