Punjab Boards Upload New Smart Syllabus 2025 for Class 9th and 10th | Download Updated Matric Syllabus from Ilmkidunya

The Punjab School Education Department has officially announced and uploaded the new Smart Syllabus 2025 for Class 9th and Class 10th. This updated syllabus is now available for download on all Punjab education board websites and Ilmkidunya.com, Pakistan’s leading educational portal. The decision has been taken to reduce the academic burden on students while maintaining educational quality ahead of the Matric Annual Examinations 2025.

According to an official notification shared by Punjab Education Minister Rana Sikandar Hayat, the smart syllabus aims to make exam preparation easier for students who faced academic disruptions due to environmental and scheduling challenges this year.

Background of the Decision

In the wake of smog-related school closures, revised academic calendars, and curriculum delays, the Punjab government decided to shorten the syllabus for both Grade 9 and Grade 10. The new syllabus is designed to focus on core concepts, key learning outcomes, and important exam topics, ensuring that students can perform well without unnecessary academic pressure.

This initiative mirrors similar measures taken in the past during the COVID-19 pandemic, where a “smart syllabus” model was successfully implemented to support students through disrupted academic sessions.
