Abstract

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the English syllabus prescribed by the Punjab Text Board for grade IV. For this purpose, two research objectives and two research questions were framed. The survey research method was used for this study. The questionnaire consisted of 20 closed-ended statements, developed on a five point Likert-type scale. The reliability of the instrument was found at .904. A purposive sampling technique was used to select the sample of 100 English teachers from public sector primary schools in Lahore district. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyze data. An Independent t-test was used to find out the difference between genders. Based on the analysis of teachers’ perceptions, the findings indicate that the English syllabus plays a significant role in guiding and structuring the learning experience. It provides clarity, organization, and progression in language learning, particularly in areas such as vocabulary, grammar, and sentence structure. So. It is concluded that while the English syllabus for Grade IV generally fulfills the academic needs of students, it requires further improvement to address the practical language needs of students in a socially and linguistically diverse society.
