Sheikhupura Education Department Halts Performance Allowance for Officers–Notification

Sheikhupura Education Officers Face Performance Allowance Suspension:

In a decisive move to enhance accountability in the education sector, the District Education Officer (M-EE), Sheikhupura, has issued a directive to stop the performance allowance of multiple Assistant Education Officers (AEOs) due to their poor performance during the monitoring visits by MEAs (Monitoring & Evaluation Assistants).

The decision comes in reference to an earlier directive (Letter No. 149/M&E dated 14-01-2025), which clearly stated that the concerned officers would be held responsible for unauthorized teacher absenteeism during inspections. Following this, a performance review for January 2025 found several officers failing to meet required standards.

As a result, the performance allowance for these AEOs has been stopped, and the concerned departments have been directed to comply with immediate effect. This action highlights the Punjab government’s commitment to improving education quality and ensuring strict accountability in government schools. Please find the official notification below:
