PESHAWAR – The Khyber virtual classes initiative has officially started in Khyber district, marking the first time students in the area will receive education through a government-backed digital learning system.
The initiative was launched under the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa government’s Good Governance Roadmap to improve access to quality education in the merged districts.
According to the district administration, the virtual classrooms were inaugurated at Sahibzada Abdul Qayum Khan School under official supervision.
The project aims to connect students in Khyber with qualified teachers, modern courses and digital learning facilities available through the provincial education network.
Students To Attend Online Classes Through Peshawar Hub
Under the new system, students in Khyber district will attend online classes through the Global Virtual School Hub in Peshawar.
The platform will allow students to learn from qualified teachers based in different parts of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa without requiring them to travel outside their district.
Officials said the initiative will provide students in the tribal district with access to improved teaching methods and updated educational resources.
The programme is designed to reduce educational gaps between remote areas and major urban centres.
AI-Based Learning Technology Introduced
The newly established virtual classrooms have been equipped with modern technology and artificial intelligence-based teaching systems.
Officials said these facilities will help improve classroom experiences by introducing digital tools, interactive learning methods and updated educational content.
The government believes technology-based education can play an important role in improving learning outcomes in areas where access to specialised teachers has historically remained a challenge.
Digital Education Expands In Merged Districts
The launch of virtual classes is part of wider efforts to strengthen education infrastructure in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa’s merged districts.

The government plans to continue expanding technology-based learning facilities to improve access and educational standards across the province.
