Educational policies
Educational policies legal meaning, translation and judicial precedents.
Meaning & Judicial Interpretation: (اردو مفہوم اور قانونی تشریح)
Courts are neither equipped nor have the academic or technical background to substitute themselves in place of statutory professional technical bodies and take decisions in academic matters involving standards and quality of technical education
If courts start entertaining petitions from individual institutions or students to permit courses of their choice, either for their convenience or to alleviate hardship or to provide better opportunities, or because they think that one course is equal to another, without realizing the repercussions on the field of technical education in general, that will lead to chaos in education and deterioration in standards of education
Role of statutory expert bodies on education and role of courts are well defined by a simple rule i.e. "if it is a question of educational policy or an issue involving academic matter, the courts keep their hands off but where any provision of law or principle of law has to be interpreted, applied or enforced, with reference to or connected with education, the courts will step in."
