Abstract

This CE report presents a comparative analysis of pre-primary, primary, and secondary education policies in Bangladesh and Pakistan from 2010 to 2020. It examines the design, implementation, and outcomes of policies such as Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE), teacher training, ICT integration, curriculum development, and inclusive education. Bangladesh's structured and centralized approach, particularly its ICT Master Plan and gender-focused initiatives, contrasts with Pakistan’s fragmented implementation. The study identifies policy gaps, cross-applicable strategies, and areas for improvement in both countries, offering concise policy recommendations to enhance education quality and equity. The comparative analysis of the policies reveals that Bangladesh is making considerable progress, while Pakistan is still lagging behind. The reasons highlighted are inconsistent policy implementation and a less strategic policy implementation framework.
