Students of the Insaf Academy will be able to self-assess their progress through online tests available on the academy’s website, he noted.
The education minister said that the government is focused on promoting the English language in schools and 1000 master trainers have been hired for achieving the target.
Earlier in February, the Punjab government had announced establishing 100 Insaf schools in Lahore by the end of the year. The plan, however, was halted due to the coronavirus pandemic.
The notification in this regard said that these schools will be set up in rented buildings for which the education authority approved Rs. 200 million.
