Multiple Errors Found in Punjab’s New School Textbooks

The Punjab Education, Curriculum, Training and Assessment Authority (PECTAA) is conducting a review of new school textbooks for nursery through Grade 5 following the identification of multiple errors within the curriculum. Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz had previously approved the new curriculum, set to be implemented in the 2027–28 academic year.

The textbooks were sent to education experts for evaluation prior to printing, but several mistakes were discovered, leading to the need for further review. Publishers are urging PECTAA to expedite the process, as the academic year for private schools commences on January 1, and the delay in printing could result in the unavailability of new textbooks by March.

The Education Department has stated that the review process will be concluded within one to two weeks, with assurances that all textbooks will be available in the market before the new academic year begins.
