dc.description.abstract | Over the last three decades, Pakistan has expanded free and compulsory education to millions of students and increased female students’ attendance at school. Punjab alone doubled the number of 6- to 15-year-old children in school to 26 million between 1998 and 2020. The country has also introduced innovative reforms, most notably, merit-based recruitment of teachers and strategic use of public-private partnerships (PPPs) to support the expansion of the system and improve teaching. In addition, the government has increased data availability and encouraged active participation of civil society organizations, promoting transparency and inclusivity and establishing a foundation for sustained improvement in the education system. These laid a solid foundation for sustained improvement in its education system. | en |
