PECTAA School Assessment Schedule 2026

The Punjab Education Curriculum, Training and Assessment Authority PECTAA officially announced the comprehensive date sheet for first term School-Based Assessment 2026 for students spanning Grades 1 to 8. Commencing on September 18 and running through September 30, 2026, this province-wide evaluation framework requires all public schools across Punjab to conduct internal examinations under strict administrative guidelines. Educational administrators initiated the operational countdown by scheduling item bank activation for September 14, granting local campuses a concise four-day preparation window.
Navigating continuous term evaluations is vital for tracking early academic progress and identifying foundational learning gaps before final board sessions arrive. Early data suggests that millions of young learners across regional districts are preparing for dual-shift testing formats, ensuring that academic standards remain uniformly rigorous. By standardizing question papers through central digital platforms, education officials aim to eliminate grading discrepancies and foster transparent student evaluations.

To manage student volume efficiently across public campuses, the assessment schedule divides testing duties into specific daily shifts. The morning session runs from 10:00 a.m. to 12:00 p.m., while the standard afternoon shift operates between 1:30 p.m. and 3:30 p.m., adjusted specifically on Fridays to run from 2:00 p.m. to 4:00 p.m. The curriculum covers core subjects including English, Urdu, Mathematics, Science, and Islamiat. Following the conclusion of papers on September 30, evaluation and marking will proceed rapidly until October 4, culminating in official report card distribution and parent-teacher meetings on October 5, 2026.
