Islamabad – The weight of kids’ school backpacks is increasing, particularly for young students who need to carry a lot of books and other necessities.
The federal government is thinking of methods to make school bags lighter so that juniors won’t have as much stress. According to reports, on August 1st, the government instituted a bag-free policy for students attending Islamabad’s primary schools.

Students who attend classes will not need to carry school bags after the summer break since their classrooms will have storage cabinets for textbooks and other supplies.
While all elementary schools are being prepared by the government to accept this transition, the effort seeks to lessen the load on younger kids.
Before its gradual discontinuation, the government promoted the “Lighter Bag Brighter Student” campaign, which was met with initial success and favorable feedback from parents.
To give their kids a healthier educational experience, parents are now pressuring the ministry to bring back the previous regulation, which is why the new program was implemented.
