Islamabad government announces new school timings

In Lahore, the federal school authorities have announced revised timings for schools following the conclusion of summer vacations in 2024. Starting August 5, schools will operate from 7:30 am to 1:30 pm on weekdays.

According to a recent update from the Federal Directorate of Education (FDE), new school hours will be implemented. For single-shift schools in Islamabad, classes will run from 7:30 am to 1:30 pm Monday through Thursday, and from 7:30 am to 12:30 pm on Fridays. In evening shifts, schools will operate from 2:00 pm to 7:00 pm Monday through Thursday, with an adjusted schedule from 2:30 pm to 7:00 pm on Fridays.

It’s worth noting that summer vacations for Islamabad schools were extended until August 4 due to the extreme heat. Other regions, such as Sindh and Balochistan, also experienced extended summer breaks because of the persistently hot and humid weather conditions.
