The government of Punjab has announced that all schools, colleges, and universities in the province will remain closed starting tomorrow and will continue until March 31, 2026. The decision affects both public and private educational institutions.
Officials said the closure is being implemented to address ongoing concerns that may affect the safety and well-being of students and staff. Authorities have advised parents and students to follow official announcements for updates on reopening schedules.
During this period, students are expected to stay at home, and schools may adjust academic calendars to ensure that learning is not disrupted.
Some institutions may also use online platforms to continue classes or assignments, though authorities have not yet issued specific guidelines for virtual learning during the closure.
Education authorities have emphasized that they will continue to monitor the situation and announce any changes as needed.
Parents and students are encouraged to remain in contact with their schools for updates and instructions regarding homework, assessments, and any alternative arrangements for learning during the closure period.
