BISE Lahore Matric results case
BISE barred from announcing Matric results
Lahore, July 29: The Lahore High Court has called report from the Lahore Board
of Intermediate and Secondary Education by July 31 on a petition
requesting to restrain the board from announcing the Matric result
scheduled to be announced on August 1. The court passed this order
on a petition moved by a student, Abbas, who through his counsel Khawar
Ikram Bhatti submitted that the petitioner appeared in the exam and
answered all questions according to the syllabus and course recommended
by the board. The counsel said the board as per routine provided
answer sheets to all examiners, which were not in accordance with the
syllabus and course. He said this anomaly would badly affect the
marking of petitioner's and other students' papers because the
examiners would mark questions as per answer provided to them. He
said the board had announced the date for results and the present
marking could cause serious damage to the petitioner and thousands of
other students. He requested the board should be restraint from
announcing the results and it should be done only after providing
answer sheets to the examiners according to the syllabus and course. The Nation

Increasing the effectiveness of public spending on education
Islamabad: The Institute of Social and Policy
Sciences (I-SAPS) and Campaign for Quality Education (CQE) are jointly
organising a policy dialogue on 'Effectiveness of Education Spending:
Post-Budget Scenario' here on July 30. The aim behind the policy
dialogue is to share an analysis of the education budget for the fiscal
year 2009-10 and to stimulate an evidence-based discussion on
increasing effectiveness of public spending on education. The dialogue
aims to engage parliamentarians, educationists, media, civil society
and other key stakeholders in a process-oriented approach to enhance
the effectiveness of public spending on education. It will focus on
federal and provincial education budgets 2009-10, although comparisons
with previous years will also be drawn for important issues. The
speakers at the post-budget policy dialogue will include experts in the
fields of education, budgeting, and political economy. The dialogue is
being organised with a view to creating and sustaining a vibrant
interface with policymakers and other key stakeholders on education
spending. The policy proposals finalised in the dialogue will be shared
with respective governments. Further, it is envisaged that, apart from
more issue-based policy dialogues, I-SAPS and CQE will track the
education budget 2009-2010 and concurrently engage the government along
the 2010-2011 budget cycle for improving the budgetary process,
allocations and spending. Budgetary allocations and spending
have a direct impact on access and quality of education. Pakistan's
educational performance has been marred by recurrent problems in
education budgets of the federal, provincial and district governments.
Overall, government spending appears to be too low when considered in
the context of huge gaps in access and quality of education at the
primary, secondary and tertiary levels. Ironically, national spending
on education as a percentage of Gross Domestic Product (GDP) has been
falling consecutively for the past two years: 2.50% in 2006-07; 2.47%
in 2007-08; and 2.10% in 2008-09. The problem is aggravated by
misplaced priorities, low spending rates, mislead distribution of
funds, system-wide leakages, poor oversight mechanisms, high
administrative costs, delays in fiscal transfers and lack of
transparency, to name a few. These problems are undermining citizens'
access to quality education as a basic human right on one hand, and are
limiting Pakistan's capacity to leverage the role of education in
poverty reduction and human resource development, on the other. In
this context, I-SAPS has conducted an analysis of federal and
provincial education budgets for 2009-10. The analysis unpacks the
budgets in non-technical parlance and identifies issues, which entail
significant implications for access and quality of education. The
findings reveal important issues. For example, Punjab has cut education
budget by 6% over the previous year. While the employees-related
expenses (salary) have been increased by 22%, the non-salary expenses
(stationary, teaching aids, operational expenses) have been cut by 25%.
These allocations do not conform to the Punjab government's plans for
improving educational attainment in the province. Likewise, an
unpacking of the federal budget shows an increase in allocations by
36%. At the same time, however, cuts in expenditure on various heads
are likely to constrain the key institutions in performance of their
core functions. For example, the costs of 'Project Pre-investment
Analysis' have been reduced from Rs0.2 million in 2008-09 to
Rs0.05 million in 2009-10 for National Education Management Information
System (NEMIS). Similarly, allocations for 112 un-approved projects of
Higher Education Commission, scholarship schemes and cadet colleges are
some of the budgetary priorities, which call into question, the equity and effectiveness of public spending on education in Pakistan. The
policy dialogue is being organised in collaboration with the Department
for International Development (DFID) and will be held at Serena at 3:45
p.m. Minister of State for Education Ghulam Fareed Kathia will be the
chief guest on the occasion.
