This paper seeks to provide an overview of the PSRP as a policy intervention in Punjab’s education sector, identifying improvements over previous outsourcing models and continuing challenges. The focus is on the pedagogical, administrative, and sustainability dimensions of PSRP, analysing its implications for learning outcomes, regulatory oversight, equity, and public sector capacity. By situating PSRP within the broader trajectory of education outsourcing in Punjab, the paper explores its potential for enhancing service delivery and governance.
