Results Gender Inequality in Education in PakistanHow has your experience of education been in Pakistan and now as an international student inLondon?Education delivery mechanism vary across the nations in the world. Pakistan and UKeducation delivery approaches are quite different. It is well known fact that students are teachin systematic and professional manner in UK then Pakistan. I asked question to participantsabout their education experience in Pakistan and UK. Respondents believed that “trainingand development is the one of the factor where both education system are different from eachother”. It can be seen that in UK students received different assignments in respect to theirproject which they have to performed after passing through few months training which ispractical in nature (Farah, Fauzee and Daud, 2016). This thing is not observed in Pakistanwhere students directly receive assignment which are not so tough and less practical. Hence,due to this reason their experience in UK in terms of education is better than Pakistan.Respondents said that “certification options are also available to students in UK where theyalong with master degree can also enter in to varied course that develop their skills and broadknowledge of subject”. Such kind of facility is also available in Pakistan but there are lessoptions in the mentioned nation then Pakistan.Can you draw out any similarities and differences between the two systems? UK and Pakistan are developed and underdeveloped nations. Education play pivotal role ineconomic growth of any nation.It is well known fact that there are lots of differences and lesssimilarity in both nations education system. In UK there are multiple nations and each of themhave their own education system, policies and procedures. As there is no centralized system. InPakistan there is centralized system and where central government prepare policies for entirenation and state education departments frame their policy accordingly (Manan, David andDumanig, 2016). Question in respect to similarity and difference between two systems was askedto respondents during interview. Few respondents state that“one of the basic difference betweenboth education systems in that in UK there is mandatory for every children to have education andenrol in school”. Whereas, in the Pakistan it is not mandatory for children to take admission inschool. This is the reason behind high illiteracy rate in the Pakistan. After completion of 12th3

students have to enrol in college which comes under specific university. In UK also, same thingapplied. “However, duration of completion of master degree is different in both nations. Forexample, in case of UK master degree can be completed in one year but in Pakistan it may take2-year time period”. Respondents also point out difference between both education systems interms of training and development.In terms of training and education of teacher’s, educationsystem in both nations is quite different (Cyan, Koumpias. and Martinez-Vazquez, 2016). As itcan be observed that in Pakistan pre-service training and in-service training is given to theteachers but in UK there are education programs like B. ED for one year where individuals areteaching professionally so that they can deliver quality of education to the students in the school.Thus, on this front both education systems are different from each other. Respondents also statedthat Universities of Pakistan and UK are different from each other in terms of ways in whicheducation they impart to their students. In UK Universities there are state of art libraries in whichthere are latest books, magazines and journals from where student can receive up to dateinformation about research area. On other hand, in Pakistan things are different where studentscan find old books and few number of Journals. Due to all these reasons students in Pakistandoes not experience which they want to gain. In UK time to time varied seminars are organizedwhere lectures are given by the experts. Apart from this, training sessions are organized wherestudents can learn new things practically like Excel and power point presentation etc. Such kindof facilities are not available at wide level in the Pakistan. Such kind of training sessions andseminars are organized in less number. Due to all these reasons students does not get informationabout things that are going in reality in the industry. In UK there are portals where student can ask any query and same is resolved by thetutor. In mentioned nation both teacher and student both seat collectively and discuss researchtopic. Due to this reason student get wide knowledge about reality that is going on in the market.In Pakistan one prepares report and submit it to the tutor and if receive feedback then do minorwork on it and report get approved. Due to all these reasons UK education system seem muchbetter then same of Pakistan.How do you feel about education for girls and what do you plan for your own future? In different nations of the world there is different opinion of people in respect to education ofgirls. People those live in tribal areas of Pakistan are strictly prohibiting girl’s education as they4
