Prime Minister Muhammad Nawaz Sharif said on Sunday that education is a basic right of every child and an educated populace is the guarantee of development for any nation and country.

He launched Prime Minister’s Education Initiative which includes a comprehensive plan for up-gradation of physical infrastructure, addition of IT and science laboratories, human resource management, teachers training and evaluation, curriculum improvement and bio-metric attendance system in the public sector schools and colleges across Islamabad. The initiative also includes mapping of school transport system, students’ health and safety and volunteer programs for students.

Prime minister expressed displeasure over the non-implementation of Free and Compulsory Education Act 2012 and assigned the task of ensuring its implementation to Maryam Nawaz.

Included in the initiative are other provisions like grievance redressal system, development of monitoring and evaluation system and establishment of an Education Authority and Education Advisory Council. The Authority and Council will consist of experts to provide a framework for implementing the Education Act 2012.

PM has said earlier that the government’s aim is to ensure 100 per cent enrollment in the federal capital’s public sector schools and to introduce the concept of innovation in school volunteer program in public sector schools. This would facilitate opinion leaders and prominent professionals to interact with students and raise awareness regarding democratic values, civic education, climate change, health and hygiene, harassment at work place and career counseling.

The PM will inaugurate the first transformed school in a rural area of the federal capital upon his return from the US. The model will be replicated in all public sector schools in Islamabad.
