As temperatures soar across Pakistan, the Education Department of Punjab has taken a proactive step by announcing the summer vacation schedule for schools and colleges. The proposed break is set to commence from June 7th, 2024, and extend until August 19th, 2024. This announcement comes as a relief for students and staff, providing them with a respite from the intense heat.
The official notification confirming these dates is expected to be released in the coming week. This move by the Punjab Education Department is a significant one, as it sets the tone for other provinces to follow suit.
Meanwhile, Sindh is also considering an early closure of schools due to the escalating heat. The final decision is likely to be made post the conclusion of Class 9 and 10 exams. There’s also a possibility of early vacations for students up to Class 8, which is currently under consideration.
Other provinces, including Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, are expected to release their summer vacation schedules in the last week of May. As the heatwave continues to grip the nation, the announcement of the summer vacation schedule by Punjab schools brings much-needed relief to students and parents alike.
