The students would also memorise 19 small suras by the end of the same academic level as well as simple translation of 27 Quranic supplications recited during prayers. The students of Classes IX and would be taught 20 selected chapters with translation and interpretation,
Also compulsory for classes IX and X would be Pakistan Studies, which contain the much criticised version of regional history. Education reformers have criticised the composition of Pakistan Studies which contain distorted claims, including on its wars with India as well as on the official version of the independence movement and the formation of the country.
