Abstract：This study focuses on the impact of urban-rural cultural differences in Pakistan on students' academic achievement from the perspective of educational equity. Through a combination of literature review, theoretical analysis, and empirical research, it deeply analyzes the significant differences between urban and rural areas in Pakistan in terms of cultural concepts, educational resources, and family environments, exploring the specific mechanisms through which these differences affect students' academic achievement. The research results indicate that urban-rural cultural differences, by influencing students' learning motivation, learning conditions, learning support, and other aspects, lead to a significant gap in academic achievement between rural and urban students, exacerbating educational inequity. This study not only provides a new perspective for understanding the urban-rural education gap in Pakistan but also offers theoretical support and practical references for formulating targeted education policies, improving rural education conditions, and promoting educational equity.
