The move is expected to allow students to return to regular lessons and other school programmes after the disruption. Federal Unity Colleges are managed by the Federal Government and serve students from different parts of the country.The development is expected to provide relief for students and parents who have been affected by the interruption of academic activities. The prolonged disruption had raised concerns about the impact on students’ academic calendars, examinations and other school-related programmes. With the directive for teachers to resume, attention is now expected to shift towards restoring normal academic activities across the affected institutions.
