With more than 22 million children out of school, Pakistan urgently requires efforts to design and implement flexible and alternative models of curriculum and education delivery to engage the hardest-to-reach children, particularly girls and overage dropouts in the marginalised communities. This point was raised at a seminar held on 28 June at the Aga Khan University Institute for Educational Development (AKU-IED) to disseminate findings of a year-long study which examined efficacy of non-formal basic education (NFBE) curriculum and materials for quality teaching and learning processes. The AKU-IED carried out the study in collaboration with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (Jica) in the 16 newly established NFBE centres.
