Mir Naseebullah Khan Marri
Minister
The Government of Balochistan views education as a mission that needs to be pursued on an emergency basis. It is central to the development agenda and the future of Balochistan.
Balochistan is fortunate enough to have a roadmap for improvement of education sector in the province in the shape of Balochistan Education Sector Plan (BESP: 2020-25), which is not only endorsed by the National Development Partners but also approved by the Government of Balochistan.
The Sector Plan addresses issues of learning, participation and reduction of gender gaps. These have been long-standing challenges in education for Balochistan. It has detailed implementation, reporting and monitoring mechanisms.
The Balochistan Education Sector Plan (2020-25) provides an opportunity to break the vicious cycle of low participation and low quality of education in the province. It will not be easy but the Government has the will and commitment to achieve it.
Moreover, every effort will be made to ensure that there is a coordinated effort from all the stakeholders. These include the School Education Department, Colleges, Higher & Technical Education Department, Social Welfare Department, Balochistan Technical Education and Vocational Training Authority (B-TEVTA) and Health Department. The most critical symbiotic relationship is with the Department of Social Welfare.
As the Minister of Education I will personally oversee the implementation of BESP (2020-25) and coordination with all the stakeholders to achieve the desired results. I see it as imperative to the development of Balochistan and its future.
Mr. Abdul Rauf Baloch
Secretary
Education is key to economic, social and cultural development of any nation. In order to ensure access to education for all, the Government of Balochistan, School Education Department has developed its 2nd historic Balochistan Education Sector Plan (2020-25) with the support of Global Partnership for Education (GPE) and UNICEF.
The Plan has identified two (02) policy focus areas: Learning and Access & Participation. The Plan offers realistic strategies and contextually relevant activities for the improvement of these areas critical for ensuring access to inclusive and equitable quality education for all in Balochistan.
The challenge in front of us is the implementation of BESP (2020-25) in its true spirit. With support of development partners, we will make every effort to give the children of Balochistan their right to quality education and a bright future.
