Islamabad, 21 April 2026(Kamran Raja): In a significant step towards strengthening institutional leadership and ensuring seamless academic operations, the Federal Directorate of Education (FDE), under the guidance of Secretary Education Mr. Nadeem Mahbub, has successfully completed the posting of Heads of Institutions (HoIs) across 113 educational institutions in Islamabad and surrounding areas.
This important initiative aligns with the commencement of the new academic session, marking a key milestone in ensuring continuity in academic planning and administration.
The Director General approved the proposals submitted by all six Area Education Officers (AEOs) after thorough review. The postings reflect a balanced and inclusive approach, with 51 male and 62 female Heads of Institutions appointed across various institutions.
Sector-wise distribution demonstrates broad and equitable coverage: Nilore leads with 45 institutions, followed by Bhara Kahu (26), Sihala (20), Tarnol (10), Urban-I (8), and Urban-II (4).
A central consideration in the posting process was to assign Heads of Institutions within their respective sectors, preferably close to their residences. This approach is expected to enhance administrative efficiency, foster stronger institutional ownership, and improve overall performance outcomes.
The timely placement of institutional leadership reaffirms FDE’s commitment to effective governance, strengthened academic management, and the delivery of quality education across its institutions.
