Punjab School Sector Education Plan

The goal for a well-functioning education system is quality education for all children, in an
inclusive and conducive learning environment. Such a system provides children with convenient access
to school so that they are able to enrol, continue their schooling, and learn well enough to gain
meaningful employment and to contribute to society. Ideally, it means getting children into school
at the right age, establishing a strong foundation for future learning, and building upon that
foundation with age and context appropriate material, taught by competent and responsive teachers,
in well-resourced classrooms. It means regularly collecting data on schooling and learning outcomes
and using this data to inform continuous improvement. It also means providing targeted support to
enable all students to stay in school, and to learn well, regardless of their personal limitations.
