ISLAMABAD: The National Command and Operations Centre (NCOC) Wednesday decided to move winter vacations in schools to January 2022, sources told Geo News.
Sources further told the TV channel that the decision was backed by all provinces, who agreed to the proposal. However, the duration of the vacation is being finalised in the NCOC meeting.
"The decision was taken in line with the recommendations forwarded during the inter-provincial education ministers conference," the sources said.
NCOC sources said the vaccination process will carry on in educational institutions, adding that educational institutions will remain closed in areas where heavy snowfall takes place.
