Out of the four provinces, the Punjab successfully reduced teacher absenteeism, took measures to improve teacher quality, school infrastructure, and provided support to low-cost private schools and textbook distribution through The Punjab Education Sector Reform Programme (PESRP). Several systemic changes were also introduced to revamp the structure of Education Department and Directorate of Staff Development (DSD) now known as Quaid-e-Azam Academy for Education Development (QAED) to ensure quality of teachers is enhanced and accountability measures are in place.
