The Prime Minister’s Youth Program (PMYP) is reported to be preparing a scheme named PM Chromebook Scheme 2026 to distribute 500,000 Chromebooks to students across Pakistan.
The initiative aims to expand access to digital learning, online research and educational resources. However, students should check the official scheme portal and their relevant education board for the latest eligibility requirements and application deadlines.
Who is eligible for the PM Chromebook scheme?
According to the information provided about the scheme, eligibility varies by region and education board.
For boards in Punjab, Sindh, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Balochistan, top-performing Grade 9 students enrolled in government and public schools are eligible for consideration.
In Islamabad Capital Territory, Azad Jammu and Kashmir, and Gilgit-Baltistan, top-performing students in both Grade 9 and Grade 10 are being considered.
Students enrolled in private schools are not included in the eligibility criteria described in the supplied information.
Students should confirm the applicable requirements through the official portal before submitting an application.
How to check eligibility for PM Chromebook Scheme 2026
Students can check their records through the official scheme portal:
pmychromebooks.ibcc.edu.pk
The portal is described as being managed by the Inter Boards Coordination Commission (IBCC).
