Overview
Ali Institute of Education (AIE) in collaboration with the School Education Department (SED) and Babar Ali Foundation (BAF) has implemented the ‘Promoting Science in Government Schools’ initiative in four districts of Punjab: Lahore, Kasur, Nankana Sahib and Sheikhupura. There has been a deterioration in the teaching of science in government schools due to an outdated curriculum, demotivated teachers, overprotection of science lab/equipment and no activity-based or experiential learning strategies. This pilot was designed keeping in mind the need of the hour as presented by the Secretary Education.
