Download Biology-9 Smart Syllabus (ALP) & Model Paper (2025-26)
Biology is a subject of concepts and visuals. For 9th Class students under the Punjab Textbook Board (PTB), the syllabus is vast, covering everything from the cellular level to complex bioenergetics. To streamline your preparation, the Punjab Education, Curriculum, Training & Assessment Authority (PECTAA) has issued the Smart Syllabus (Accelerated Learning Program - ALP).
At EDUBoost, we provide not just the file, but a complete roadmap. This guide includes the Model Paper structure, the Pairing Scheme for 2026, and the official PDF download.
What is the Smart Syllabus (ALP)?
The ALP (Accelerated Learning Program) is a condensed version of the syllabus. It specifies:
- Included Topics: The specific headings you must memorize.
- Excluded Topics: Chapters or pages (like Glossary or specific boxes) that will NOT be tested.
- Practical Notebooks: Updated guidelines for practical exams.
Note: For 2025, the focus is shifted heavily towards "Conceptual Understanding" (SLOs) rather than rote learning.
Biology Paper Pattern & Pairing Scheme 2026
Before downloading the syllabus, you must understand how the paper is set. The total marks are 60, divided as follows:
| Section | Details | Marks |
|---|---|---|
| Q1: MCQs | 12 Questions (From Exercise & Chapters) | 12 |
| Short Questions | 3 Sections (Attempt 5/8 in each) | 30 |
| Long Questions | Attempt 2 out of 3 (Part A & B structure) | 18 |
Teacher's Tip: Must-Practice Diagrams
In Biology, a question often says "Describe with the help of a labeled diagram." If you write the theory but miss the diagram, you lose 2 marks immediately. According to this ALP model paper, ensure you practice these diagrams:
- Chapter 1: Cellular Organization (Volvox, Frog systems).
- Chapter 4: Fluid Mosaic Model & Mitochondria structure.
- Chapter 6: Mechanism of Enzyme Action (Lock and Key Model).
- Chapter 9: Structure of Human Heart (Chambers and Valves).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
No, typically Biostatistics is excluded or given very little weightage in the ALP. Focus on Bioenergetics and Nutrition instead.
