Situation Analysis
Almost 39% of Pakistanis live in multi-dimensional poverty. Deprivation in education contributes to the largest share, at 43%. One of the best ways to avoid poverty as an adult, is to obtain a good education. Pakistan continues to face significant challenges in meeting the educational needs of its population. Half of all adults and two out of every three women are illiterate. The literacy rates are 69.5% and 45.2% for men and women respectively, this signifies an immense gender imbalance.
Why we need your help
There are an estimated 53 million children in Pakistan between the ages of 5 and 16, and only half of them are in school. Children often fail to enrol because there is no school near their homes. Where schools exist, they are often in very poor or dangerous condition; lacking the required number of classrooms and necessary facilities, such as boundary walls, toilets and water. For those who are in school, learning is not guaranteed and up to a third of those who enroll drop out by grade 2. Many children receive an education of such poor quality, that they are barely able to read basic sentences or do simple mathematics. Many teachers are poorly trained and lack support to do their work properly. Parents and children see no value in investing their time and money in a poor quality education.
In primary and middle schools, only 29.49% of schools have drinking water facilities, 43.06% have latrine facilities and only 34.79% have boundary walls. Only 42.28% schools have buildings in a satisfactory condition. The majority of the schools lack basic furniture for pupils and what is available is grossly insufficient, dilapidated and not fit for purpose. Syllabi-based teaching and learning materials are not available.
