The Article 25-A of Constitution of Pakistan commits the state to give free and
necessary quality education to children of the age group 5 to 16 years. But sadly
this law isn’t in form like each different laws of Pakistan. Unfortunately, our
nation is loaded up with ghost schools and ghost teachers also and there are
insufficient infrastructures as well. Pakistan Education Statistics (2015–16)
information shows that around 9% of schools don’t have a structure accessible. This
suggests 9 out of 100 schools are held out in the open, putting students health at
risk. Besides, even for schools that have buildings, a large number of them are in
disrepair.

100% enrollment in compulsory grades and zero illiteracy). Finland’s education
system is regarded as one of the best in the world, The United States is ranked 5th
in college degree holders, spending 6.2% of its GDP on education. Countries like
Britain and New Zealand have made education compulsory and free for children for a
period of 11 years. Spain, France, Norway and Canada are among the 19 nations where
education is free of cost for a duration of 10 years, ranging from the age of five
to 15 or six to 16 years.
In the event that a significant about of budget gets spent on education, at that
point the education level of Pakistan will get raised, very soon. Education should
be conveyed comprehensively, adequately and evenhandedly across the nation. For
this reason, the government must concentrate on equal education system, utilization
of information technology, solutions to raise quality education and removing
financial barriers.
