Among the nine Punjab boards, BISE Gujranwala has the widest district coverage — six districts spread from Sialkot in the north to Mandi Bahauddin in the south. Every year in late august, the Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education Gujranwala announces its matric position holders one day before the official result.
For 2026, the position holders announcement is expected on 5 August 2026, with the formal result on 6 August 2026 under the unified Punjab Boards Committee of Chairmen (PBCC) schedule.

When Will the BISE Gujranwala Position Holders 2026 Be Announced?
The Punjab Boards Committee of Chairmen has set 6 August 2026 as the unified result date for all nine Punjab boards. Following standard practice, BISE Gujranwala will announce its 10th class position holders on 5 August 2026, one day before the result, through a press conference by the Controller of Examinations.
Last year, the 2025 position holders were announced on 23 July 2025 by the BISE Gujranwala Controller of Examinations along with the board chairman. The 2026 announcement is expected to follow the same format.
BISE Gujranwala 10th Class Position Holders 2025 — Complete Verified List
This data is taken from the official BISE Gujranwala press release dated 23 July 2025, as reported by The Nation, Dunya News, Pakistan Observer, Daily Pakistan, Dawn, and other major news outlets.
Overall Top Position Holders
| Position | Name | Marks |
|---|---|---|
| Joint 1st | Shafayat Rasool | 1187 |
| Joint 1st | Alisha Zaib | 1187 |
| Joint 1st | Fatima Shireez (Shiraz) | 1187 |
| Joint 2nd | Muhammad Mohid Shahzad | 1186 |
| Joint 2nd | Muhammad Abdullah | 1186 |
| Joint 3rd | Irha Ferhan | 1185 |
| Joint 3rd | Rubasha Ashraf | 1185 |
| Joint 3rd | + 3 more students | 1185 |
In total, 19 students secured top positions in the BISE Gujranwala matric 2025 — the highest count of position holders among any Punjab board this year. The Controller of Examinations confirmed that all top 3 positions were shared due to identical scores.
The Headline Story of 2025: A Three-Way Tie at the Top A three-way tie for 1st position at exactly 1187 marks each is rare in Punjab board history. It signals one of two things — either the marking pattern was tighter in 2025, or competition at the very top has reached a level where students consistently score within 1-2 marks of each other.
School Details
BISE Gujranwala did not publicly release individual school names for all 19 position holders in the 2025 press conference. The complete details — including school names for each topper — are available in the official PDF gazette uploaded to bisegrw.edu.pk after the result announcement. We will update this section once the 2026 list is released, and recover school information from the 2025 gazette for full reference.
The Gender Story of BISE Gujranwala 2025
One of the most striking findings of 2025: girls captured 7 of the top 10 positions, while boys secured only 3. This gender ratio is the most pronounced among all Punjab boards in 2025 — even stronger than BISE Lahore.
What makes this notable is that all three 1st-position holders included two girls (Alisha Zaib and Fatima Shireez) along with one boy (Shafayat Rasool). The Daily Pakistan headline called it a year where “the future is female” in Gujranwala matric exams.
For parents of girls in the Gujranwala division, this is genuine motivation — girls from Gujranwala, Sialkot, Gujrat, and Mandi Bahauddin are increasingly proving that academic excellence has no gender ceiling.
District-Wise Performance
BISE Gujranwala covers six districts, more than any other Punjab board. Each has its own academic story:
Gujranwala District — The largest student population and the headquarters district. Most central position holders traditionally come from Gujranwala-based private institutions like Best School System and other established chains in the city.
Sialkot District — Strong consistent performer. Sialkot’s industrial wealth and educational infrastructure produce regular position holders, particularly in the Science group.
Gujrat District — Has been rising steadily. Schools in Jalalpur Jattan and Kharian regularly send students to the merit list. In 2024, Tayyba Zaheer from Govt. Girls High School Jalalpur Jattan made the position holders list.
Hafizabad District — Government schools are notably strong here. Govt. Girls High School No. 1 Hafizabad has historically produced position holders.
Mandi Bahauddin District — Smaller but steady. Often produces 3rd position joint holders, particularly from rural government schools.
Narowal District — The district with the most surprising rise. In 2024, Sahab Aftab from Govt. Girls High School Zafarwal (Narowal) secured a top position, showing how rural government schools are now competing with urban private chains.
Schools That Dominate BISE Gujranwala’s Topper List
Notable private chains (based on 2024-2025 data):
- Best School System, Satellite Town, Gujranwala
- Punjab Daanish Schools (regional campuses)
- The Educators Baradari Campus, Gujrat
Notable government schools producing position holders:
- Govt. Girls High School No. 1, Hafizabad (Hania Khan, 2024)
- Govt. Girls High School Jalalpur Jattan, Gujrat (Tayyba Zaheer, 2024)
- Govt. Girls High School Zafarwal, Narowal (Sahab Aftab, 2024)
The pattern is clear: in BISE Gujranwala, government girls’ schools consistently produce position holders — more so than in any other Punjab board. Parents of girls studying in government schools in Hafizabad, Narowal, and Gujrat have realistic reasons to expect their children to compete for top positions.
How Position Holders Are Decided
The system is purely marks-based:
- The board calculates total marks across 9 subjects out of 1200
- Students are ranked by total marks
- Ties are accepted — joint positions are common (as proven by the three-way tie at 1st in 2025)
- Separate lists are released for Overall, Science Group, and General (Humanities) Group
There is no interview, no extracurricular weighting. The position is purely about exam performance.
What Position Holders Receive
- Cash prizes from BISE Gujranwala (Rs. 25,000 to Rs. 100,000+)
- Punjab Government cash awards under the Honhaar Scholarship and CM Punjab’s special prize
- Free admission to top government colleges (Government College Gujranwala, Government College for Women Sialkot, Government Postgraduate College Gujrat)
- Laptops under various Punjab Government schemes
- Media coverage on PTV, GEO, ARY, and major newspapers
- Educational tours to Northern Areas funded by Punjab Government
- Recognition at the BISE Gujranwala prize distribution ceremony

Final Words
The BISE Gujranwala 10th Class Position Holders 2026 list will showcase the brightest students from six districts. Based on the 2025 trend — particularly the dominance of girls and the emergence of rural government schools — the 2026 list is likely to feature several institutions outside Gujranwala city.
For 2026 students still preparing: focus on consistency, master the BISE Gujranwala marking pattern through past papers, and write neat structured answers. For students whose result is already in: position holders are inspiring, but they are one chapter, not the whole book.
