63,000 schools lack computer education across the Punjab
Lahore: Around 63,000 schools out of a total of 64,000 schools across the Punjab still lack computer labs and
instructors despite the Punjab government's claims to provide government schools
with computer education, quarters concerned said on
Monday.
Officials of the Punjab Education Department (PED-Schools) said
that they were working hard to provide schools across the province with computer
labs. They said 144 schools would be made 'excellent schools'.
Access:
Yousuf Nadeem, Punjab Educators Association (PEA) information secretary, said
the government should play its role in providing computer education to
government schools. In 2008, he said, the government had constructed computer
labs in about 700 schools across the province, adding that students of 63,000
schools still had no access to information technology. A female teacher said, "A
class VI student at a government school knows nothing about computers and
internet. I wonder how these students will compete with the private school
students." Another schoolteacher, Masroor Ahmed, said the Punjab government
should notify that computer would be taught as a compulsory subject at primary
level. He said, "It is tragic that our children see computer in a college. A
large number of schools have computer labs, but they lack instructors. Local
residents should be offered jobs in schools."
A senior official of the
PED-Schools expressed his concern about the promotion of computer education in
the province. Under the Excellent Schools Programme, he said, 144 schools would
be provided with computer labs, instructors and furniture in the fiscal year
2008-09. He said the Punjab government had allocated funds for this purpose and
the project would be started soon. He said that the remaining schools would be
provided computer labs and other facilities in accordance with the programme.
