BISE Gujranwala 9th Class Result 2026: Government vs Private Schools
Government schools had 114,442 candidates appear, of whom 45,310 passed, for a pass rate of 39.59%. Private and non-government institutions had 68,561 candidates appear, of whom 47,791 passed, for a pass rate of 69.71%. Government schools had approximately 45,900 more candidates, yet despite the smaller candidate base, private and non-government institutions produced around 2,500 more successful students overall.
Nearly seven out of every 10 students from non-government institutions passed, while the corresponding figure for government schools was fewer than four out of 10, underlining a substantial performance gap between the two sectors.
Private Schools Led in All Six Districts
BISE Gujranwala covers Gujranwala, Gujrat, Hafizabad, Mandi Bahauddin, Narowal and Sialkot, and private and non-government institutions recorded a higher pass percentage in every single district. Hafizabad’s private and non-government institutions recorded the highest sector pass rate at 77.92%, followed by Gujranwala at 72.19% and Sialkot at 69.97%.
Among government schools, Gujrat achieved the highest pass rate at 46.23%, while Narowal recorded the lowest government-school rate at 32.48%. The widest performance gap appeared in Hafizabad, where private and non-government institutions led government schools by 33.74 percentage points, the largest district-level gap recorded across the board.
Gujranwala Board’s Overall Result
A total of 257,318 candidates applied for the SSC Part-I First Annual Examination 2026. Of these, 249,352 appeared and 115,966 passed, giving an overall BISE Gujranwala pass percentage of 46.51%. Regular candidates recorded a pass rate of 50.87%, while independently registered private candidates achieved a lower 34.46% pass rate.
Female Candidates Outperformed Males
Female students achieved a substantially higher overall pass percentage than male candidates in this year’s results.

What the Results Show
The institution-wise figures indicate a clear pass-rate advantage for private and non-government institutions, with the sector leading government schools in every district covered by BISE Gujranwala. However, the gazette does not explain the reasons behind this difference. School location, student intake, attendance, resources and the number of candidates enrolled may all influence institutional performance, so the figures should be viewed as an examination-result comparison rather than a complete assessment of education quality.
This analysis is based on figures available in the BISE Gujranwala 9th Class Result Gazette 2026 at the time of publication; the board may revise or correct the data, and in case of any discrepancy, the official BISE Gujranwala record will prevail. Results from the neighboring BISE Bahawalpur board show a similar pattern favoring private institutions. For more education updates, see our scholarship and education news section.
