The Punjab Education Foundation (PEF) spokesman on Saturday rebuffed a news item “PEF plans to transfer funds to Daanish Schools” appearing on August 12. The spokesman said that the total number of PEF subject specialists was only 89 and the annual increment of these officials was not stopped but it was subject to their contractual conditions.
In fact, all PEF staff was contract-based whose jobs were subject to their performance in their respective fields. The spokesman said that subject specialists were hired to teach science subjects and English in low-cost private schools to improve their academic level.
