Sindh Minister for Education Pir Mazhar-ul- Haq has said that a summary would be forwarded to Chief Minister Qaim Ali Shah for summer vacations in July and August rather than usual June and July. This vacations will only be applicable ion those schools which are not offering Cambridge or O-level education.
In Cambridge and O-level schools, summer vacations will be from 1st June.
It is good from one angle as during the Ramzan, students will be free of tension as they don’t have to go to school and also those vacations which were to be given in Eid will be adjusted here and valuable time of students are saved. But from other angle the decision is very harsh because now days, heat is on high and temprature is increasing day by day. In May and June Karachi is very hot. So it will better if these vacations are started from 15th June instead of 1st July.
