Abstract

This Study is unfolding the challenges that Pakistan education system has been facing.Education is the key factor when we talk about leadership and development it not only develops the person but also moves the country towards progression in terms of economic, political and social improving the standards of living.Till now education at every level prepares the person for the next level till it takes the person to tertiary industry, hence there is a close connection with education and development of Pakistan, apparently, the indicator doesnt reflect very positive results.There is an untrained teaching staff with fluctuating enrollments and low resource facilitation, a dual medium of instruction, weak examination system and government that allocates low budget towards education system.Moreover, there is a lack of research which promotes new ways to handle decision and gender disparity is also seen these problems that cant be overlooked, hence this topic is selected as a domain to work on and provide possible suggestions to overcome
