British High Commissioner to Pakistan, Jane Marriott CMG OBE, said on Wednesday that inclusive, quality education is crucial for peace, development, and breaking the cycle of poverty. In a video message on the occasion of the International Day of Education, she said that both girls and boys have an equal right to education to fulfill their dreams.<\/p>\n

She said that since 2014, the UK has directly supported around 5.8 million children in gaining access to a decent education across Pakistan. \u201cI am glad that this journey continues with the government and development partners,\u201d she added.
