Govt wants to end O-Levels by 2010
ISLAMABAD, Oct 9: The federal education ministry has devised a strategy
to introduce a common syllabus throughout the country and abolish what it
referred to as the disparity of education. The same kind of syllabus will be
studied in all educational institutes till 2008 while the O- and A-Level system
will be eliminated in 2010. According to well-placed sources, the syllabus for
27 subjects from class one to the intermediate level has been sent to all the
provinces and will be effective from 2008.
The education ministry has also
decided to impose a common study system in the country by abolishing different
types of education systems like the O- and A-Levels. The ministry authorities
were of the opinion that the Cambridge system created inequity in the education
system. Federal Education Minister Javed Ashraf Qazi declared the new education
system as one of the best curriculums in the world while education experts,
students and teachers hope it will improve the education standards of the
country. online
