The schedule for exams of grades 1-8 has been announced to take place from July 18-30, according to Punjab Education Minister Murad Raas.
Report cards will be issued by July 10, as per the notification.
The minister took to Twitter to share the schedule for the School-Based Assessments as educational institutions in most parts of the country started reopening Monday. All schools in the country have reopened except for primary classes in Sindh, as Covid-19 cases decline after a deadly third wave.
“Please follow SOPs issued by the government,” read the notification.
Schools, colleges and universities have started holding in-person classes with strict SOPs in place to keep the pandemic in check.
The National Command and Operation Centre has allowed authorities to resume physical education in districts where the positivity ratio is less than 5 percent from May 24 in the first phase, while those with a higher prevalence of the virus were scheduled to open from June 7.
The Sindh government, however, had decided to extend lockdown restrictions due to the higher positivity rate in the province and kept schools closed for another two weeks.
