The following are the major issues related to the process of curriculum development in Pakistan. Due to these issues, the curriculum developers do not succeed to develop a curriculum that is easily implanted and its positive effects could benefit society as a whole.
Outdated curriculum and lack of sequence
            There is a lack of sequence among the concepts over the levels in the existing curriculum and it is also outdated on which the curriculum developers are supposed to construct the newly developed curriculum. Regarding content, there is the repetition of concepts from a long period of time. There is negligible coordination found among the various agencies and committees which are responsible at various stages of curriculum development. There is a mismatch between the objectives, content, method, and evaluation procedures. 
Lack of available funds
            Due to a lack of financial resources, the process of curriculum development is affected to a large extent. New teaching materials need to be suggested to utilize in educational institutions in order to achieve the designed aims, goals, and objectives. Content materials need to be replaced with updated and new knowledge and skills. Investment in education is already at a meager level which is invested in other areas of the education process. Thus, there are little amount of the available funds expended on the process of curriculum development after some long period of time.
Political interference
            It has always been the practice that in the process of curriculum development political pressures have influenced in order to achieve their political agenda. The nomination of the personnel for curriculum development is on a political basis due to which the process is affected in terms of representation of relevant individuals. Political will makes a difference in the process of curriculum development if it is positively taken. However, in Pakistan, the political will to improve the curriculum revolves around the irrational and personal agenda of the political systems.
Lack of research in academics  
            In Pakistan, it has always been a problem that there is a little amount of research work carried out regarding academics. The quality of the research work done is not up to the mark set by international standards. Therefore, in the process of curriculum development, research-based work contributes to a great extent in setting objectives, selection of content, methods, and evaluation procedures. Indigenous research work is important for developing the curriculum for a society that is lacking in Pakistan.
Less involvement of the teachers in curriculum development
            It is the common practice that in developing curriculum for primary or secondary grades, the opportunities for the teachers teaching in primary or secondary school teachers are not provided to participate in the curriculum development process. The teachers in schools are the actual players who implement the planned curriculum but they are given fewer chances to share their experiences in developing a new curriculum.
Conclusion
            Curriculum in order to develop according to the needs and desires of the society, the issues related to it need to be addressed. Sincere efforts and professional commitment of the curriculum developers may develop such a curriculum which will be the true document of the hopes of the society. A flawless and relevant curriculum guarantees the achievement of the intended goals of the society by producing the required educated individuals who will play their due role in developing the country.
