Abstract
This article furnishes a historical review to trace out the reflection of Political awareness in the national educational policies of Pakistan. Policies are designed by the government for the welfare of the state taking into account the each and every aspect that leads to progress and prosperity of the country. Educational policies are devised to fulfill the political, social and economic needs of a nation. This study is, therefore, historical in nature with qualitative design. Government documents were used as primary, and authentic books as secondary sources to find out the reflection of political knowledge in the educational policies of Pakistan. This study showed that no attention has been given on incorporating political knowledge in national educational policies of Pakistan to enhance the level of political awareness. This study, therefore, recommends that various aspects of political development in the society should be emphasized in the educational policies and consequently the basic political knowledge be incorporated in the school curricula. Keywords: Educational Policies, Political Knowledge, Curriculum, Pakistan
