Okay so for my second blog post I’d like to tackle an issue which causes much distress in Pakistan: The distribution and quality of “free” education. I’m talking about educating those who are underprivileged. The ones who can’t afford it all. We got people who have an insanely high capacity, yet cannot grasp it all. The talents of those people are wasted on the streets. The teachers teaching such classes are not paid very much/if at all like those who teach in other schools. Therefore, most of them don’t even enjoy the job and lack the want. They don’t want to teach kids, for instance. They feel like they have to. Those are the teachers who don’t get jobs anywhere else because of their “karen” behaviours and attitudes and as such end up in a school for the poor in order to pay the bills. I’m not saying all teachers in such schools are like that. In fact, some can be ever so kind. However, Ms.Trunchbulls are more common than Ms.Honeys (a reference from the movie “Matilda) and the government should consider making education a top priority.
One thing that should happen I would like to suggest is that Pakistan ask other countries for experts to help with this issue. They would look at it from an outsider’s point of view and have many ideas to offer.
Thanks for reading and please spread the word. XOXO, Political Pepsi
