Buildings of 2,700 schools in Punjab declared dangerous
Rawalpindi: The buildings of around 2,700 schools out of 62,500, all over Punjab, have
been deemed dangerous for thousands of students and teachers. However,
no solid step has been taken to improve the condition of these schools. Sources
told this scribe that in 2009 on the directives of the Punjab
government, the Education Planning Management (EPM), carried out a
survey of entire schools in Punjab and reported that the condition of
over 2,700 schools including primary, elementary, secondary, middle as
well as high is dangerous and need immediate attention for
rehabilitation and revamping. Besides this, the EPM reported that more
than 2,000 schools are functioning without roofs and buildings and the
students are taking their classes in open spaces in harsh winter and
summer seasons and many students have fallen victim to different
ailments during harsh weather conditions. The studies of the students
are largely affected particularly from class VII to Class X due to lack
of proper buildings. The matter does not end here because more than 50
per cent schools lack facilities of toilets, forcing the teachers,
students and staff to seek help of neighbourhood houses for this
purpose. Submitted its survey report to the Punjab
government, the EPM suggested immediate and practical measures for
rectifying the over all agonizing situation of these schools. On this
report, the Punjab Chief Minister Mian Shahbaz Shariff not only
allocated funds in the annual development plan but also issued necessary
directions to the relevant authorities in educational directorates for
initiating work on revamping, rehabilitation of schools. However,
despite passage of three years and allocations of funds, no positive
step has been taken to improve the condition of these schools. When
this correspondent approached All Punjab Teachers Association President
Rawalpindi Sagheer Aalam said that working in schools has become hard
for teachers because of poor condition of schools and non-availability
of other facilities. "Whenever, the Teachers Association
approaches the high officials in educational directorates, they give
lame excuse of shortage of funds despite the fact huge amount has been
allocated for this purpose in the annual development plan," he added. When
this correspondent approached Executive District Officer (EDO),
Education, Qazi Zahoor ul Haq, he said that the ratio of dangerous
schools would be high in southern Punjab. "The concerned directorates
spend the allocated amount on revamping of dangerous and dilapidated
buildings. Similarly work on construction of roofs and buildings in the
schools, which lack these facilities are done every year. Because of
work carried on yearly basis, the number of dangerous schools is coming
down each year," the EDO said. In Rawalpindi, he said
there are only 5 per cent of such schools. However, necessary work on
revamping and their rehabilitation is being carried out, he added. Punjab secretary education did not attend repeated calls made by this correspondent for his comments over the matter. The news

30pc schools without science, IT teachers
Rawalpindi: Over 30 per cent government schools in
Rawalpindi district have been without science and Information Technology
(IT) teachers for more than a year and the students have to suffer due
to apathy of the high-ups of the education department putting a question
mark on the education sector reforms of the Punjab government.
Out of 350 government schools in the district, over 135 schools are
without science teachers and out of 209 schools where IT laboratories
have been established for boosting computer literacy among the students,
as many as 70 labs are without IT teachers.

Opposition Leader in the National Assembly Chaudhry Nisar Ali Khan has
been without science teacher for a long time. More than 190 students of
class 9 and 188 students of class 10 have to suffer due to the shortage
of teachers and class rooms. Majority of the students have to opt for
arts subjects due to the non-availability of science teachers.
Moreover, the students who want to study science subjects have to get admission in private schools.
While talking to Dawn, Executive District Officer (EDO) Education
Qazi Zahoor said some 1,300 highly qualified teachers had been hired by
the government to fill in the vacant posts of science and IT teachers.
Despite that there was a shortage of teachers, he said.
"In schools where science teachers are not available, we have asked
the principals concerned to hire the teachers on temporary basis so that
science students may not suffer," the EDO said.
In Murree, Kotli Sattian, Gujar Khan and Rawalpindi city, several
schools have no science and IT teachers though Punjab government has
ranked Rawalpindi as the third best performing district in education
sector across the province. Dawn

Local school chain introduces smartboards
Islamabad: A school chain has replaced blackboards with smartboards to enhance the learning experience of Pakistani students. The
decision to introduce appropriate technology among Pakistani students
was taken in recognition of their exceptional intellectual potential.
The smart boards, which provide an efficient way of teaching, will help
realise the aim of preparing students to cope with future challenges.
They help energise presentations, motivate learners, enhance competence,
and enable students to listen to the lecture instead of taking notes,
hence saving time while maximising productivity. Students can view
three-dimensional objects and they can interact with learning material,
as their fingers become the mouse. Moreover, students in different
classes and remote campuses can talk and act together seamlessly through
wireless connection, which allows high-speed transmission of sounds,
images, documents and other information. Before
introducing smart boards, also known as white boards, the PakTurk
International Schools and Colleges invited Fahri Eren, an expert from
Turkey, to impart necessary training to the teachers. He visited various
campuses for the purpose and told educators that electronic boards are
windows to the world. Students having access to these boards are lucky
as they are exposed to tonnes of informative material. Underlining
the importance of modern knowledge sharing and teaching method, Eren
stressed upon the teachers to give their best to ensure successful
future for students. The newly introduced technology will help teachers
to learn and develop more, enable students overcome shortfalls and help
bridge the digital divide, he said.
