With a duration spanning three years and onboarding in-school students from class K-12 and also Out of Schools Children with Accelerated Learning Content, the e-Taleem platform has addressed the evolving needs of education in Pakistan. Leveraging cutting-edge technology, e-Taleem seeks to transcend traditional rote learning methods, fostering critical thinking, creativity, collaboration, communication, and digital literacy among students.

The Ministry of Federal Education and Professional Training is extending this portal at the national level.

“Technology plays a crucial role in ensuring equitable access to quality education for all students and the e-Taleem platform is a significant step in our efforts to bring digital learning to every corner of Pakistan” said Syed Junaid Akhlaq, Sr. Joint Secretary, M/o FE&PT.

This also aligns with our commitment to accelerate digital equity for 150 million people by 2030”
