Ahead of the meeting, the Federal Education Minister said that the decision will be made keeping the health of students, teachers, and staff members in view.
Meanwhile, the Punjab Education Minister, Murad Raas, is against taking a winter break. He has previously expressed his thoughts on more than one occasion. He believes that the schools were re-opened after a lot of homework and effort. Closing down schools again will hamper the education mechanism.
