Educational development in Pakistan : the role of user charges and private education
Jimenez, Emmanuel | Jee-Peng Tan
Education in Pakistan is still poorly developed today. At the primary level, less than half the eligible population is enrolled. As in most other developing countries, the government provides highly subsidized public education at all levels. Private education was nationalized in the early 1970s. This policy was reversed in 1979, but in 1985 the share of total enrollments in private institutions was still below the pre-nationalization levels. This paper examines the potential feasibility of increased cost recovery and greater private participation in the provision of education in Pakistan. It shows that policies in both directions could generate potential gains in efficiency and equity.
