To ensure a seamless transition, the authorities have also modified the times for schools that offer double shifts. The decision follows a pause in December 2023 and January 2024, when schools were shuttered because of the prevailing cold wave and deteriorating pollution conditions.
To ensure the security of both students and staff, exams were postponed during this time. These all efforts are just for the success and better learning of students. Following these times, students can attend classes comfortably.
The new school schedule will go into effect on February 1, 2024. This preemptive action shows how committed the authorities are to evolving with the times and putting the welfare of teachers and students first.
By modifying the school schedule in response to the weather, Punjab has ensured the security and well-being of its pupils throughout this moment of change. With educational institutions starting up regularly again, the new schedule will make learning easier for local students and teachers alike.
