| This study scrutinises the examination and assessment system in schools in Pakistan that is applicable from primary through to secondary education (Year X). It begins with a brief background of the Pakistani examination system established by its colonial masters; it then describes the present education system with special reference to the assessment process of students. An overview of the curriculum development and curriculum reforms in the country expands our understanding of the moribund assessment system in state schools. The primary focus of the study is to contextualise the assessment system in primary and secondary education and to assess the present rectification measures being put in place by the education authorities. |
