In this post, we will find out why Punjab Government Schools Postpone September 2023 Tests. We will cover everything related to Punjab’s education system, government news, and the primary purpose behind the test postponement.
September tests in 48,000 Punjab government schools, including Lahore, have been postponed.
Initially, plans were in place to conduct exams from first to eighth grade, with the Punjab Education Commission preparing a date sheet.
Primary Reason For Punjab Government Schools Postpone September 2023 Tests:
However, the primary reason for the September test delay is the funding issue, partly attributed to the unstable political situation in Pakistan.
Due to insufficient funds and an unsettled government, the date sheet was extended to September.
Some people heard that the school administration asked for money. Due to this, an organization decided not to conduct exams.
They demanded that if exams are necessary, prepare the question papers first.
The spokesperson said withdrawal sheets would be issued when financially acceptable. Pakistan’s situation is unstable, affecting government institutions and funding.
Stable government can improve everything, including education. Postponing exams disappoints students and parents who had high hopes.
