The Punjab Education Foundation has announced that its partner schools will now observe a holiday on Saturdays. Previously, schools operating under PEF did not have a Saturday off.
Along with this change, school timings have also been revised. Classes will now run from 8:45 am to 1:30 pm, while on Fridays, schools will close at 12:30 pm.
These updated timings will remain in effect until April 15, 2026.
Last month, the Punjab Education Foundation launched a large-scale recruitment campaign with more than 100 vacancies across various departments.
The hiring list also features eight Subject Specialist positions in core subjects, as well as openings for Network Support Engineers and Executive Assistants. Additionally, PEF announced 10 Driver posts with salaries of Rs. 57,500 per month.
In other news, several private schools in Punjab have come under scrutiny for ignoring government orders that prohibit outdoor activities due to escalating smog levels. Despite a province-wide ban, some institutions have continued arranging student outings to places such as Joyland, Jallo Park, Safari Park, and the Lahore Zoo.

What about teachers.They should have Saturday off
Because if Saturday will be off mostly private schools call teachers in school as per schedule.. all relaxations are for students.
Seems education ministry has nothing much to do but changing school timing again and again. Hahaha what a country
School is there to make workers (slaves) anyway
Assalamualaikum let them know that the timing for Friday should be 12:00 instead 1230.
Because it’s hard to join prayer juma in case it’s 1230 .
