On December 23, both private and public schools in Punjab began their winter break.
It’s worth noting that Sindh’s schools and colleges reopened on Monday after the winter vacations ended on January 1. The province’s winter vacations began on December 20.
All provinces were instructed by the National Command and Operation Centre (NCOC) to move their holidays forward to January so that students may be immunised in schools. However, educational institutions in Sindh began their vacations on December 20, while those in Punjab began their vacations on December 23.
