10th Class Result
The announcement of the 10th class result by the Boards of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) in Punjab is more than just an academic milestone—it is a life-changing moment for students and a deeply emotional experience for their parents. Every year, millions of students in Punjab sit for the Matriculation exams under various boards such as BISE Lahore, Rawalpindi, Multan, Faisalabad, Gujranwala, Sargodha, Sahiwal, Bahawalpur, and DG Khan.
The 10th class result is not just a reflection of academic performance; it often shapes the educational direction, career goals, and self-confidence of students. For parents, it is a measure of their investment in their child’s future and a moment that often brings pride, relief, or concern.
In this article, we explore the importance, process, emotional impact, grading system, future opportunities, and how students and parents can handle this turning point with maturity, strategy, and optimism.
The Result Announcement – A Moment of High Emotion
Every year, Punjab boards announce the 10th class results between July and August. These results are awaited with great anticipation by students, parents, and teachers alike.
The results are published online through: and you can check on those
- Official board websites (e.g., www.biselahore.com)
- SMS service via roll number
- Gazette copies available at schools
- Some boards offer result apps or portals
It’s a day when websites crash due to high traffic, emotions run high, and prayers echo in every household.
This time the 10th class result will be announced on July 24, 2025, which will inform the children about their educational status.
How the Matric System Works in Punjab
Matric system
In Punjab, the 10th class examination is the second part of Matriculation, covering:
Compulsory subjects:
Urdu, English, Islamiat/Ethics, Pakistan Studies, Mathematics
Elective group subjects:
Science, Arts, Computer Science, Technical subjects
- Students are tested in both theory and practical components (for science subjects).
The exam is conducted by the respective BISE, and the marking is centralized, ensuring transparency and fairness.
Grading and Marking Scheme
Since 2021, many Punjab boards have adopted a Grade-Based System along with percentage marks. The typical grading system looks like this:
| Grade | Marks Range | Remarks |
| A+ | 90 – 100 | Outstanding |
| A | 80 – 89 | Excellent |
| B | 70 – 79 | Very Good |
| C | 60 – 69 | Good |
| D | 50 – 59 | Satisfactory |
| E | 40 – 49 | Pass |
| F | Below 40 | Fail |
Students are required to pass each subject separately to receive the Secondary School Certificate (SSC Part II).
The Psychological and Social Pressure
For many students, especially in rural areas and government schools, Matric results carry immense societal weight. A good result brings:
- Recognition from family and community
- Eligibility for scholarships and admissions
- A boost to confidence
Pressure to “perform well” can also lead to:
- Anxiety and depression
- Fear of failure
- Unfair comparison with peers
Parents, too, feel this stress. The emotional and financial investment they make in their child’s education heightens the importance of this outcome.

Final Tip
Don’t just follow the crowd — choose a path that matches your strengths, interests, and career goals. Seek guidance from teachers, career counselors, or family members, and explore your options with an open mind.
Tip for Parents:
Encourage your child based on their skills, interests, and aptitude—not just societal prestige.
What If the Result Isn’t Good? Handling Failure and Low Marks
Not every student scores well, and failing a subject or scoring low is not the end. Here’s what can be done:
- Rechecking/Recounting: Apply if you believe marks were unfair.
- Supplementary Exams: BISE offers a second chance a few months later.
- Repeating the Year: Some students may benefit from a full-year repeat with coaching.
Skills-based training can lead to solid careers.
Important Reminder:
Your life gives you this opportunity, so you should not be discouraged, but rather believe in yourself and persevere for success. Academic failure is temporary, but resilience lasts a lifetime.
The Role of Parents – Support Over Pressure
Parents play the most important role in shaping how a student reacts to their result. Whether your child scores top grades or struggles, your response will stay with them forever.
Do’s for Parents:
- Acknowledge your child’s effort
- Provide emotional support
- Avoid comparison with siblings or neighbors
- Offer constructive advice
Don’ts for Parents:
- Don’t insult, shout, or label them
- Don’t threaten or emotionally blackmail
- Don’t give up on your child’s potential
Remember, your child needs a mentor, not a judge.
Career Planning and Counseling – The Need of the Hour
In Pakistan, career counseling is often ignored at the school level. After 10th grade, students and parents need guidance to:
- Identify suitable fields
- Understand job market trends
- Prepare for professional colleges
Many NGOs, private schools, and career portals now offer online counseling services, aptitude tests, and webinars.
Tip for Students:
Learn about your field early. Adopt the fields you like or the fields you want to work in. Attend workshops, forums, and connect with professionals.
Skills to Learn After 10th Class
Regardless of the result, students should use the time before college to:
- Improve English and communication
- Learn computer basics or coding
- Take short online courses (YouTube, Coursera, Digiskills)
- Volunteer for NGOs or community work
- Read books to develop critical thinking
These skills will help in both academics and future job markets.
Real Success – More Than Just Marks Conclusion:
If you pass the exams with good marks and you hope that you will study well in the future, then continue your studies. However, if for some reason you fail or face any other problems, then do not let the worries take up your mind. Rather, it is better for you to take up a profession.
Let’s not forget: some of the world’s most successful people were not academic toppers.
