Unfortunately , our education system mirrors the same in its deep division between public and private sector schools, between urdu and english medium schools, between ordinary and elite class schools, between schools and madrissahs. In the last two decades, this gap has further increased extending the boundaries of diversity and inequality of educational resources and opportunities . Our education system seems to have been devised so as to <br />Sustain the status quo in the society where power, wealth and resources remain the privileges of a few families. So, there is a dire need to change our education system on a revolutionary basis; critical thinking must be an essential part of the education. Concept of Neutral and apolitical education goes in the interest of the corporations and ruling elites to keep people ignorant and unaware. Education must be introduced as a political, social and dynamic process.<br />Saira Rubabhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01784689831471835911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1470347879953910208.post-2555440784510099142019-06-22T09:11:59.792-07:002019-06-22T09:11:59.792-07:00Very true.
