As the summer holidays in Punjab near their scheduled end, parents and students are eager for updates. Schools are officially set to reopen on August 15, 2025, but there is still uncertainty around whether the provincial government will extend the summer break.
A notification issued earlier in May 2025 confirmed that all public and private schools across Punjab would resume academic activities on August 15. However, due to extreme weather conditions and rising temperatures in several areas, many are questioning if reopening on the scheduled date is feasible.
According to media reports, no formal decision has been made yet. Government officials have stated that any change in the reopening date will depend on a review of the weather conditions closer to the date.
If schools do reopen on August 15, low attendance is expected. Many families are still reluctant to send their children back due to the ongoing heat. If no extension is granted, full academic activity is likely to resume from Monday, August 18, following the weekend.
So far, the Punjab Education Department has not issued any updated notification. Parents and teachers continue to wait for official word. Some school administrators are reportedly preparing for a possible delay, though no confirmation has been given.
Parents are advised to stay in touch with school administrations and monitor official channels for updates. Any decision about an extension will likely be made just a few days before August 15.
