Abstract

This article intends to evaluate National Curriculum for English Language (Government of Pakistan, 2006) and selected textbooks for Grades V and X in order to determine the extent to which career related learning has been addressed. A case of Pakistan has been selected for this review. This procedure was undertaken to evaluate consistency, depth and breadth of information addressed with reference to career education. The review showed that curriculum has incorporated career-related information for Grade X in line with the National Education Policy (Ministry of Education Government of Pakistan, 2009) in far much comprehensive manner when compared to Grade V. Furthermore, career-related information has been addressed inadequately in the curriculum for these two educational levels when analyzed according to the career development framework (Law and Watts, 2003). Recommendations are made to impart career education through curriculum programming and interventions.
