Joint Efforts To Improve Educational Facilities Urges

Renowned educationist, Principal and Administrator of the New London Cambridge School Rubina Ramzan Kiyani Wednesday called for joint efforts to improve educational facilities in remote areas with a view to socioeconomic development of the region

KARACHI, (UrduPoint / Pakistan Point News - 9th Jan, 2019 ) :Renowned educationist, Principal and Administrator of the New London Cambridge school Rubina Ramzan Kiyani Wednesday called for joint efforts to improve educational facilities in remote areas with a view to socioeconomic development of the region.

Talking to this scribe, Rubina Kiyani, who is also the vice president of the Association of Private Institutions (API) Sukkur observed that lack of education, was the major cause of backwardness of the tribal elders.

She noted that youth developed negative tendencies owing to absence of education facilities.

She asked parents to enroll their children in schools and keep a close watch over their activities.

To a question, she said in a country with a population of over 180 million (the sixth most populated country in the world), and a near breakdown of the public education system (from Primary to the university level), it was only natural for the private sector to fill the vacuum.

She said the success of private schools is not merely failure of public-sector schools, but also the failure of Pakistani curricula and examination boards, adding that it is imperative to develop an alternative examination board, nationally, in addition to the boards of intermediate and secondary education on a divisional level.
