Realisation of objectives and targets set in the national education policy 2009 will be dependent on the delivery of financial commitments at federal level and effective implementation at provincial level. According to Pakistan Institute of Legislative Development and Transparency (PILDAT) policy brief, "The national education policy 2009", Pakistan's current level of educational achievement is poor.
Pakistani society continues to reflect considerable social and financial disparities, which mars the educational opportunities and potentials of a significant section of the population. According to the policy brief good governance and the elimination of corruption and political interference in education policy delivery will be vital for effective implementation and improvements on the ground.
The marked disparities between provinces, urban and rural education and the opportunities available to boys and girls continue to hamper the choices of individuals and Pakistan's economic potential as a nation. "If Pakistan is to properly serve its citizens and be equipped to operate in the global economy, significant reform and improvement is required", says policy brief.
The policy aims to significantly increase the state's spending on education. The federal government must ensure that the promised increase in percentage GDP of 7 percent is delivered. Without such delivery the proposed improvements in infrastructure and delivery of educational services can not be achieved. Equally, Pakistan's federal structures will present challenges to effective and uniform realisation and delivery. Previous policies have delivered poorly in practices. Provinces must be proactive and responsive in planning and timetabling reforms.
The inter-provincial education ministers will be required to demonstrate leadership and dynamism if the oversight mechanism is to be successful. According to the brief, Pakistan's ability to meet the goals of the Dakar framework by 2015 will be an important indicator of progress and commitments towards a better education and internationally competitive Pakistan.
