ISLAMABAD: In a landmark move, the government has eliminated the mandatory ‘B Form’ requirement for admissions to federal government schools, aiming to increase school enrollment and reduce the number of out-of-school children.
Secretary of Education Mohiuddin Wani announced the decision, emphasising that the ‘B Form’ requirement had disproportionately affected vulnerable populations. “Our aim is to ensure that every child has access to quality education,” Wani stated.
Effective immediately, all children residing in Islamabad, regardless of their documentation status, will be eligible for admission to government schools.
This inclusive policy is expected to significantly boost school attendance and educational access for all children in the capital.
