LAHORE: The Punjab education department has launched an app to digitally track teachers’ academic performance across schools. The initiative aims to improve transparency and enhance education quality.
The “Teaching Practice Analysis Form” app has been activated on the HRMS portal. Under this system, teachers are required to upload daily records of their teaching activities. Additionally, they must submit a short video of classroom teaching, with a maximum size of 5 MB.
Officials said the app launched by the department will help document teachers’ professional skills and ensure effective evaluation. It is expected to create a more accountable and performance-focused environment in schools across Punjab.
The department emphasized that the app launched is part of broader reforms to modernize education and encourage the use of digital tools. Authorities believe that real-time monitoring will improve teaching standards and benefit students’ learning outcomes.
Earlier, the Punjab government approved a stipend package of over Rs. 4.21 billion for college intern teachers. The program aims to support more than 8,000 interns across the province, providing hands-on teaching experience while improving college education.
Intermediate-level interns will receive a monthly stipend of Rs. 55,000 for seven months, while BS-level interns will earn Rs. 65,000 for ten months. Upon completion, interns will be awarded experience certificates to enhance their professional credentials and employability.
The internship program also promotes inclusivity. Authorities have reserved 404 seats for minorities, 243 seats for persons with disabilities, and 40 seats for transgender individuals.
