intermediate education’ FROM 300 TO 325 WORDS

education plays the most important role in national life and economy of the
country. It is a stage when the children have acquired a fair degree of
literacy in the primary schools and are ready to acquire not only the rudiments
of knowledge but are also tough various
techniques and skills. This stage of education extends to five or six years. At
the end of it, the students are ready to take up some vocation or trade, if
they have requisite aptitude and interest .They can join technical, vocational
or professional schools or colleges or join colleges and universities to acquire
education in Science or Arts or Humanities, if they are so inclined.
The British rulers had so devised the
secondary education in our country that it was merely a literary education
encouraging cramming. It provided little or no facility for technical and
vocational education. Now, secondary education has been organized on modern
lines by diversifying the course of study in the secondary schools and by
introducing technical and vocational subjects into middle and high school
classes with matriculation, the last class in the school career. Intermediate education.
i. e 11 and 12 classes, provides a base for future planning of the students. At
this stage four disciplines, Pre-Medical, Pre-engineering, Commerce and Arts or
Humanities, are introduced. The students can select either discipline according
to their interest and tendency. In the last group, i.e. Humanities, there is a
vast option of subjects for the students.

government, under its new education policy, has dissolved all the textbook
boards of the four provinces and allowed private publishers to bring forth
their books if they are in accordance with the curricula designed by Federal
Ministry of Education throughout Pakistan. This step is likely to encourage
competition among the publishers which would result in publication of quality
books in respect of both printing and contents.
