Punjab School Summer Vacation Holidays 2025 Date Latest News Today: Amid widespread expectations and rising concerns over the ongoing heatwave in Punjab, sources within the state government have confirmed that there are currently no plans to declare early summer vacations in schools.

However, government insiders have now stated that an early closure is not on the table, as recent weather fluctuations have brought a slight dip in temperatures in some parts of the state.

“The situation is being monitored, but as of now, there is no proposal under consideration for early summer vacations,” said a source familiar with internal discussions in the Education Department.

Earlier reports had suggested that the state was actively reviewing the situation due to rising incidents of heat-related discomfort among students, with some schools reportedly preparing for a shift to online classes if necessary. Authorities in certain districts had already issued advisories urging schools to take precautions such as reducing outdoor activities, ensuring access to clean drinking water, and adjusting school timings.

Despite the government’s current stance, parents and school administrators remain cautious. Many continue to press for clearer guidelines as temperatures are expected to stay high over the coming week.

While no formal notification regarding schedule changes has been released, officials stress that the health and safety of students remain a top priority, and any developments in weather patterns will be closely watched.

For now, schools will continue to function as per the regular schedule, with summer vacation likely to begin later this month, as per tradition.
