Pakistan Launches 'No Child Left Behind' Campaign, Targets Full Enrollment in Islamabad

Household mapping with digital dashboards now begins under a 2025–2030 plan to bring out-of-school children into classrooms.

Overview

Federal Education Minister Khalid Maqbool Siddiqui announced a nationwide push and launched an ICT-level drive to enroll every out-of-school child.
In the federal capital, authorities set a three-year window to identify and enroll the maximum number of children, alongside a pledge of 100% enrollment in Islamabad.
The Federal Action Plan 2025–2030 calls for door-to-door identification across union councils, expansion of second shifts, and accelerated learning programs with alternative pathways.
Where school buildings are unavailable, the plan provides for classes in mosques or homes to ensure access.
Digital dashboards and real-time monitoring will track enrollment and attendance, with resources and community partners mobilized under Article 25-A.
