ISLAMABAD, 23 May 2024 – More than half of Pakistan’s school age children – about 26 million – will be locked out of classrooms for a week due to an ongoing heat wave, the latest in a string of countries to shut down education due to climate extremes, Save the Children said.
At least 26 million[1] children in Pakistan’s most populous province, Punjab –  or 52 percent* of the country’s total number of pupils in pre-primary, primary and secondary education – will be out of school from 25 to 31 May.
