Abstract
We will discuss the issues in Pakistan that the women face in education. When
investigating whether there are advantages in all female education, it is important to consider
student perceptions within these all female schools. The results of this study indicate that girls in
these schools are academically challenged, have a wide range of resources, actively participate in
class, and have a positive self image. As a result, single sex schools have a positive effect on their
female students.

Issue of Women Education and Solution
1.Introduction:
Every week, millions of children in the United States wake up and go to academy for the day, still
numerous girls are in Pakistan aren't so fortunate. For times, numerous Pakistani girls have not
entered training, performing in a largely uninstructed womanish population. There's a significant
difference between girls and boys attending academy. According to UNICEF, in 2016. ( 2018),
the gender equality indicator in Pakistan was0.86, meaning that for every 100 boys enrolled in
primary academy, there were 86 girls enrolled. This creates a population that's disposed towards
males being more educated and therefore having further power over women.
There are numerous reasons for this large gap, and for the number of girls out of academy.
Asexplained by Jamal (2015), gender demarcation, religious beliefs, and access to safe and quality
seminaries each contribute to the low number of ladies that admit to education, troubles that boys
infrequently face. According to Composition 28 in the Convention on the Rights of the Child,
governments must fete the right of the child to education. This composition states that state parties
must make primary education available to every child, encourage advanced education, and take
measures to ensure that these pretensions are met. As a party to the Convention on the Rights of
the Child, Pakistan has a responsibility to educate all children, anyhow of coitus. Through the
creation of government- patronized seminaries for girls and the support from outside associations,
as well as reinventing the lady’s societal part through the adaptation of religious and artistic values,
Pakistani girls can receive the education they deserve.
The disparity between boys’ and girls’ enrollment in class only increases because the grade levels
do. As noted by UNICEF, the gender parity in grade school is .86 but reduces to .83 in secondary
school. This means that as girls make the transition to secondary school, there is an increased
likelihood that they're going to not continue their education. Additionally, there exists a sex gap of
.82 between literacy rates in Pakistan. (UNICEF, 2018). This data supports the notion that girls
and boys are educated differently and unequally in Pakistan. Gender discrimination has been
prevalent in Pakistan for several years and contributes to the lack of female education. Across all
education levels and socioeconomic statuses, sons are preferred over daughters, however this is
often even more common in less educated families (Atif etal., 2016). Males are preferred thanks
to their ability to bring a dowry to their family. Men also provide income to their families, as they
stick with the family after marriage. For this same reason, parents rely on males to care for them
as they age (Qadir, Khan, Medhin, & Prince,2011). Conversely, daughters are viewed as a further
burden to oldsters . Parents of daughters must find husbands for them, also as pay both the dowry
cost and therefore the cost of the marriage, which can amount to decades’ worth of income (Atif
et al., 2016). Additionally, girls leave the family once they marry , which suggests that they're
going to not be around to require care of their parents at the end of their lives.

This preference for males influences the way that both sexes are educated. Many families
anticipate futures for his or her sons during which they're going to be performing at a well-paying
job to support themselves and their family. To ensure this future, parents are more likely to send
their sons to school so they can receive an education in order to help them get a good job when
they are older (Ali et al., 2011). However, parents are less concerned about the longer-term for his
or her daughters. Once daughters marry and leave the family, they nearly always become full-time
housewives.
2.Education Level in Pakistan:
Pakistan is a developing country with a high population, which is constantly growing.
Pakistan is currently facing many problems in terms of economy and law and order situation.
The other problem is the growing population, which is also an indirect cause of the problem of
the sluggish economy and adverse law and order of the country. The literacy rate in Pakistan is
also very low. In Pakistan, a person who is able to write and read his name is considered
literate, and still, with this eligibility of literacy, the rate is very low.

5. 5
2.1Rural vs. urban:
In time 2006, the knowledge rate in civic areas was recorded as58.3 while in pastoral areas
it was28.3, and only 12 among pastoral women. (22) An intriguing factor in this environment is
that womanish registration was recorded loftiest at the primary position, but it precipitously
decreases at the secondary, council, and tertiary situations. It was estimated that lower than 3 of
the 17 – 23 age group of girls have access to advanced education.
The number of women who attend academies in civic areas. pastoral areas differ
drastically. In civic areas, women's education is adding every day. The parents of girls who live in
civic areas are a lot more accepting of their enrolling in the academy and indeed encourage girls
to pursue a career as they're also a lot more knowledgeable of their rights. This makes them a lot
more motivated to stand up for their education. Parents in civic areas are a lot more modernized or
westernized. These civic parents admit the significance of education. Women who live in civic
areas are frequently enrolled in private seminaries getting a better education there as they have a
lot of further educational availability. Women in civic areas are also girdled by people who are
educated and aren't put down or beaten for going to the academy. Unlike in civic areas, women in
pastoral areas are discouraged to attend the academy. Utmost of them are brought up in
conservative families with little to no education. They've to work harder than women in civic areas
because they've little support system. If their parents are accepting of education they still can not
go since utmost of them are veritably poor and can not go the expenditure. The women also don't
attend academies in pastoral areas of Pakistan because it isn't culturally accepted. The perspective
of pastoral Pakistani parents about education continues to change. Numerous parents admit the
real benefits of carrying an advanced education women’s control and commission. In discrepancy,
some parents still view education as a way to attract a better marriage.
These conservative families tend to be more traditional awaiting women to stay at home and attend
the house while men go out to work. They are also confined in pastoral areas because their city
may not indeed have a academy, thus having to travel a long distance to attend one.
The below table shows that in 2011, around 38 million population of Pakistan were enrolled in any
educational program which increased to 40 million in 2012 and41.2 million in 2013. The
registration in education is adding continuously. In 2011, around9.4 million scholars were enrolled
inpre-primary, 18 million scholars in primary, 5 million in middle,2.6 million in matriculation, 1

6. 6
million in intermediate,0.4 million in degree sodalities and1.1 million in university programs.
While,9.5 million scholars were enrolled inpre-primary,18.6 million scholars in primary, 6 million
in middle,2.7 million in matriculation, 1 million in intermediate,0.5 million in degree sodalities
and1.3 million in university programs in 2012 which shows a slight increase in registration of
scholars in educational institutions. In 2013, around 10 million scholars were enrolled inpre-
primary,18.7 million scholars in primary, 5 million in middle,2.8 million in matriculation, 1
million in intermediate,0.5 million in degree sodalities and1.6 million in university programs. The
increase in registration of scholars inpre-primary section shows that the mindfulness in the people
on the need of education is adding and they're now willing to shoot their children further to
academy than wasting them at home or by child labor. The increase in registration in universities
than the degree sodalities show that scholars are now pursuing education more at universities and
are willing to get advanced education to have successful careers.
2.2Causes of Female Dropouts From Schools:
Pakistan is a land blessed with all types of coffers including natural coffers and mortal coffers. The
people of Pakistan are hardworking and valorous but the problem of their low standing in the world is the
lack of education in them. The population of Pakistan constitutes of further ladies than males. As bandied
over, a lady can erect the society by nurturing her children by stylish moral values, stations, proprieties, and
jewelling them with education. Still, the case in Pakistan shows that women aren't preferred for getting an
education and illiterate women would obviously find it delicate to make the society. There are numerous
reasons for low education in ladies of Pakistan, which substantially include bad societal morals and sick
smarts. Still, educating women can lead the better caregiving of children and donation in educating their
coming generations (Kingdon, 2002) The illustration below shows the eschewal of academy children in
Pakistan by gender in 2015 and farther classifying the rate into the parochial base to get know-how about
The illustration over shows the children chance distribution by gender and fiefdom who are out of school.
It shows that52.3 of the ladies of Pakistan aren't going to the academy while42.7 boys aren't going to the
academy. By emphasizing only on the girls to know the clear position of girls not going to the academy so
in Sindh 61 girls aren't going to academy whereas in Punjab, the chance of girls not going to academy
is45.8. In Khyber Pakhtunkhwa,53.3 of girls aren't going to the academy whereas in Baluchistan75.2 girls
aren't attending the academy. This shows that the ignorance position of girls is loftiest in Baluchistan and
Sindh. In Punjab, at least further than half of the girls are going to the academy, which shows that the
education installations in Punjab are better than the other businesses of Pakistan. However, the reasons are
the narrow thinking of society and lack of coffers to fund the education charges, If we look for the reasons
of girls not attending the seminaries so the main. Still, for lessoning, the lack of mindfulness for the need
of education and then arrow-mindedness to educate the girls stood as the introductory reasons. In Pakistan,
women and men aren't treated inversely. Pakistan is mainly dominating society, where the orders of the
head of families which are males times are treated as exposures from God (Noureen and Awan, 2011)
Utmost men, have allowed that girls shouldn't be given education so that they can not speak for their rights.
In Pakistan, early marriages of girls are also an issue that restricts the parents from getting their
womanish children enrolled in the academy. The ethical systems and the landlords also don't want their
workers’ girls to attend the academy which keeps the registration of girls in the academy remains low.

2.3. Drawbacks of the Education System in Pakistan (Disadvantages):
We bandied the excrescencies in the Educational System of Pakistan, now we're listing the
. downsides of Education System in Pakistan that caused by those excrescencies and issues.
1. Child out of School
It's estimated that presently further than 55 million age 10 Pakistanis are unfit to read and write
and there are 7 million children of age 5 to 9 times are out of seminaries. The further worst part is
that in pastoral areas, further than 52 of girls aren't enrolled in academy. This isn't enough, you
know 67 of women as well are illiterate.
These statistics are growing every time which affect every out country from every aspect
either it's political insecurity or lower profitable growth. Reasons
• Poverty
• Not enough seminaries in pastoral places as compared to their population.
• No mindfulness.
• No affair from formerly degree holders.
• Low- Quality Education.
•Non-Responsible Politicians.
• Wadera, Choudhry, Nawabs do not allow.
• Sexual Importunity.
• No Security.
2. Child Labor
Because of the worst education system in Pakistan, parents do not enroll their children in academy,
rather, they make them earn plutocrat at a veritably youthful age in hospices/ original shops etc,.
Reasons why Parents do not Enroll Child in School
• Poverty (They want their child to earn two times food for them).
• No Quality Education ( Child learn nothing in times)
• Graduates are jobless.
• Graduates could be an alleviation and provocation for others but they themselves are
jobless.
• Why would parents want their child to waste times for just getting graduated and also

8. 8
do nothing?
3. No Respect for Degrees
Stylish was the time when there was big respect for degree holders. Now veritably many of them
achieve that respect else the most non-respectful people of the society these days are jobless
degree holders. Because they do not know the original and introductory chops and also learn
nothing in scale which makes him dependent on the job. If a job is not handed he/ she becomes a
burden on the society.
4. No Advanced Education
At first, parents do not enroll their children at academy. If a child has good luck and gets enrolled,
he/ she only continue to study up to matric or maximum. FSc position and do not go for Scale.
Occasionally this decision is from parents side but substantially from scholars themselves as well
because they also get to know the reality that nothing can be learned in real so better to leave.
5. No Major Invention/ Disquisition
Due to the excrescencies in the education system of Pakistan, and the low quality of education
scholars are unfit to explore commodities new and construct commodities for the betterment of
society because they followed only camming (Ratta) and there was no real conception tutored to
them. Indeed those scholars who are given assignments to write an essay on Pakistan Education
System. They copy from the net and submit and do not suppose over it.
Higher secondary:
Public sector
There are 699,463 students enrolled in higher secondary education in public institutions. There is
almost 67% boys and 33% girls enrollment in higher secondary education. But there is a
discrepancy between urban and rural enrollments. Only 16% of the students from the total
number are from rural areas, and only 11% are female students. While in urban centers, 39% of
students are female students.
Private sector
154,072 students are enrolled in private higher secondary institutions.
Degree level education:
Male students greatly outnumber their female counterparts in degree-level education.
Public sector
There are only 296,832 students enrolled in degree-level education in public sector institutions,
and 72% of them are male while 28% are female. Very few (less than 1%) students are in rural
institutions.
Private sector
29,161 students are enrolled in private sector institutions; 4% are female, mostly in urban city
centers.

3.Women Empowerment:
In Pakistan, the status of women in society is veritably poor, especially in pastoral areas. The
women aren't given any respect and they're treated poorly. The problem of not allowing to get an education,
beforehand and forced marriages, acid attacks, domestic violence, and killing for the honor are veritably
serious in the case of women of Pakistan. In Islam, men and women are needed to treat inversely and have
equal status still when Pakistan is an Islamic country, women aren't given equal rights nor treated inversely,
and rather they're treated like slaves.
Pakistan is divided into different businesses that are further classified into civic and pastoral areas.
The status of women in pastoral areas is particularly veritably pitiable and is a bit more in the civic areas
of Pakistan. The women of civic areas are ever getting an education and are working in good positions but
the pastoral areas and townies’ women are living in veritably bad conditions. In Pakistan, the knowledge
rate of women is also veritably low as women aren't allowed to get an education and are needed to stay at
the house only.
The government of Pakistan is now still working to better the status of women in society and
empower them so that they can live their lives in a comparatively better way than now. To avoid problems
like domestic violence, forced marriages, acid attacks, and honor payoff, the government has also made
laws and is giving corrections to the liable people but still the religious factor present in the country isn't
letting to empower the women. In Pakistan, numerous educated women have a stage for their rights and are
now not only working in good positions at different associations but also are members of the congress. The
women of Pakistan are now also engaged in the business conditioning running successful businesses and
contributing to profit generation for the country.
For 2012, the UNDP launched its monthly Human Development report that shows the GII of Pakistan in
comparison with the named countries. The report numbers are used to dissect the status of women in
Pakistan. The GII value of Pakistan in 2012 is0.567 only, which is veritably low. The motherly mortality
rate of Pakistan is also veritably high that's 260. In Pakistan, women are given21.1 seats in the congress,

10. 10
which shows that still, the women’s status is veritably low in Pakistan when further than half of the
population of the country consists of women, lower than one-quarter of the congress seats are held by them.
The rate of secondary education of women of Pakistan is only18.3, which is further than double in men
recorded at 43.1. This shows that the women of Pakistan aren't allowed to study and get an education to
stand for their rights. The labor force participation of women in 2012 shows that only22.7 women of
Pakistan are working to induce income and the part of women in Pakistan is confined only to stay at home,
produce, and raise the children. The women of Pakistan aren't yet empowered and have a veritably low
position of donation in profitable exertion and the decision-making exertion. The low knowledge position
in women is also a problem that must need to be answered at precedence so that the women of Pakistan can
be empowered and can have a donation in making Pakistan a better country. The government of Pakistan
is working to give women a better status in society and empower them so that they can stand for their rights
and have a good part in the country.
For this purpose, the government has planned to take numerous corrective conduct that includes the
following rudiments
. • In all the public and private sector institutions, gender equivalency training programs will be conducted
as well as esteeming and giving rights to women inversely will be included in the law of conducts of the
associations.
• It's planned to ensure that no prompting will be made against women’s rights.
• The government will also launch media juggernauts to apprehensive the public on the rights of women
and that they should be treated inversely.
The government of Pakistan has also planned to allocate a particular budget for the purpose of women’s
commission at the civil and parochial positions. The planned budget is as follows
The federal government will spend a total of Rs 2.7 billion in 5 years to empower women. Of which Rs 244
million will be spent by the federal government itself and Rs 2451 million by the provincial governments.
In the year 2014, Rs 479 million was projected to spend for women empowerment and in 2015, Rs 448
million was estimated. In 2016, an amount of Rs 470 million, in 2017 Rs 593 million, and in 2018, an
amount of Rs 705 million is expected to spend at the national level to empower the women and develop
them economically and provide them with a better status in society. This means that the federal government

11. 11
is showing much interest to provide women with better rights and roles in society and give them respect
and solve the major problems that the women of Pakistan are facing for many decades.

12. 12
4.Conclusion:
The above discussion shows that Pakistan is a country that is highly populated with most of the
young population that can contribute to the growth of the country. The population of Pakistan comprises
more women than men and women have the ability to build up the nation. It is also found that the literacy
rate of Pakistan remained very low even after many efforts by the governments of different times. Education
is considered as the responsibility by law in the currently implemented constitution. The responsibility
however is now distributed between the federal and provincial governments after the 18th amendment. The
provincial government with the help of the federal government is working to increase the rate of literacy in
the country by providing differential incentives.
Education in Pakistan can be characterized by extensive gender inequalities. Girls/women have to face
socio-cultural hurdles to acquiring education. The international community has developed a consensus through
the Millennium Development Goals to eliminate gender inequality from education. The proponents of gender
equality argue that it is not only a humane and ethical thing to provide everyone easy access to education without
any gender bias, but it is also essential for the development and progress of a society that both men and women
are educated. They also point towards empirical studies that have confirmed that gender inequality in education
has a significant impact on rural poverty in Pakistan, and female literacy is important for poverty alleviation.

The research emphasized the situation of education of the women of Pakistan. It is discovered that
the rate of education of women is especially very low compared to men of the country. The government is
however trying to promote education in girls as they are going to be future mothers who will raise a
generation and will build a strong nation. But the situation for the girl’s education is not good as the society
of Pakistan which is male dominant does not want their girls to get an education. The government has
allocated a budget for the empowerment of women. However, it can be seen that the role of women in the
economy and decision-making activity is still not very appreciating and the only thing that can empower.
Women are by providing them education so that they can stand for their rights, differentiate between right
and wrong, and can play a better role in society building.

5. Suggestions for Improving Education System in Pakistan:
1. Free Education: As stated in article 25-A, every citizen of Pakistan should tend free education.
2. Scholarships: Govt. should provide scholarships for higher education.
3. Specialize in the Parents: Why do I say this? because often and especially when it comes to
girls, parents are the most important obstacle to achieving an education. So, what do we do? we
mobilize parents.
4. Practical Education: There should be an academic emergency to prioritize Practical studies
over theory. Right from the varsity level, practical works should be made compulsory.
5. Career Counseling: It should be compulsory in every school in govt. as well as the private
sector.
6. Remove Ratta System: Govt. should come up with a new system to removethe cramming
(Ratta) system.
7. Teachers Qualification: There must be a standard qualification to be able to teach in schools
as in the majority private schools FA pass teachers are hired.
8. Teachers Training: Teachers should be given proper training before allowing them to teach.
9. Standard Syllabus: One syllabus should be made for country-wide schools to avoid disparities.
10. Proper Planning: Government and personal both should sit together and draft a master plan
for the proper education then the govt should follow this plan sincerely.
11. Unity: Governments must develop partnerships with communities, NGOs, and the private
sector to delegate responsibility effectively so as to realize universal primary education.
12. Political Influence: There should no political influence within the syllabus as nowadays, every
govt. just put their leader's praise and history in books.
13. Student Political Parties: There should be a complete ban on Student Political Bodies in
Universities and colleges.
14. Faculty: There should be strict monitoring of college being hired in government and private
educational institutes.
15. Technical Training Centers: Make the vocational and technical training centers more
efficient in order that skilled youth might be produced.
16. Policy Planners: Special Policy planning units should be established in provinces.
17. Special Grants: If needed special grants should be provided to the provinces wher the literacy
rate is low.
18. Freelancing: Students must be taught the fashionable age digital skills and the way to utilize
them through freelancing on the internet. Pakistan is on 4th number in freelancing in the whole

14. 14
world. If Pakistani students can reach this level with none proper guidance, Imagine, If they're
going to tend a correct training to try to to online freelancing and other businesses, they will get
on 1st very soon and therefore the economy are going to be boosted. Govt. must think over it.
19.Identify why children aren't in school: the most important factor is economic constraints and
therefore the fact that kids often got to choose from work and faculty . In a perfect world, we might
be able to demonstrate the link between schools and future earnings. we'd like to urge better at
promoting the worth of education to oldsters and youngsters .
20.Get the private sector to supply more scholarships: the govt could provide private schools
with attractive packages like cheaper utility bills reciprocally for them making at least 10% of their
places available for free of charge to poor students. this might be especially effective in areas
government schools have did not reach.
21.Hold politicians to account: Central government and provincial governments have good
intentions but no one’s political stakes are invested in delivering that “better” set of outcomes, in
order that they leave it to donors and NGOs. Until we will get Pakistani leaders to look at a
dysfunctional education regime as a political liability, we'll keep grasping at non-solutions.
