A dialogue between two friends about educational institutions
Uzair: Good morning!
Munid: Hi there! What's up? You seem a bit down today.
U: Oh, my son didn't pass the predegree exam. I'm feeling frustrated. I don't know how to help him.
M: Your son is smart, and he's not hanging out with bad friends. Other things caused his failure.
U: Like what? Are his parents responsible?
M: No, it's not them. Are the schools really good places to learn? Teaching isn't so great in schools and colleges anymore.
U: I get it. But what about the students who do pass?
M: They pass because they get extra lessons for most subjects. Politics messed things up. Students and teachers care more about politics than learning and teaching.
U: And it feels like there are protests all the time in schools and colleges. Even important people want students and teachers to do politics.
M: So, students don't learn well, and then we expect them to pass? Some say teachers even push students for private lessons. But many can't afford that.
U: Also, students are easily distracted, so they lack discipline. We need to keep politics away from schools and colleges.
M: Politicians just care about their parties growing. They aren't really interested in the public. They know schools and colleges are where they find future politicians. Local politicians who control students even meddle in how colleges are run. Principals and teachers can't always stop them.
U: What's the solution then?
M: Look, we're all in the same situation. We have to get private lessons for our kids. That's the only way.
U: No wonder education is getting worse. The subjects are tough, but students just memorize guides. They can't even make their own notes from the library.
M: It's all about memorization. They can't write properly or even speak English, apart from their lessons. So, you should help your son at home and get him private lessons. You'll see a difference.
U: Alright, I'll do that. I wish students could learn on their own using a good library.
M: Our students' level is really low. Everyone gets a degree, maybe even a higher one. But hardly anyone does well in the Superior Services Exam. Why do you think that's happening?
U: We need to do something to lift our children's skills, so they can compete with students from other parts of our country.
M: Absolutely, we need to take action.
