Later, when the British arrived in Pakistan, English education was popularized with the help of the European missionaries. Thereafter, Western education has made steady improvement in the country.

Now Pakistan has lots of universities and thousands of colleges affiliated to them. Pakistan has scores of colleges in every discipline and has positioned itself comfortably as a country that provides quality higher education to its people in specific and to the world in general.

However,because of so many factors, the expense for education (especially professional education) has gone up to very high levels and poor families find it very difficult to send their children for higher and professional education. Hence, the free and open curriculum of WikiEducator becomes important.
