Std. 1 to 9 and Std. 11 students have strong possibility of getting mass promotion, also considering taking exams in three main subjects of Std. 9 and 11.
Educational work in the state has been suspended for 8 months following the Koro epidemic. Online educational work is currently underway. Before Diwali, the state government had decided to start schools from November 23, but there was outrage among parents against the government's decision. Although the government wanted to start schools at the expense of the health of the students, the state government was forced to postpone the decision to start schools after the Diwali festivities. Given Corona's situation, there is no certainty as to when schools will resume. Even if the schools do not start by December, there is a possibility that mass promotion will be given to the students of Std. 1 to 9 and Std. While one can take the annual examination of only three main subjects in standard 9 and 11 by adopting another formula.
While standard 10 and standard 12 examinations will be held. Due to Corona, when the standard 10 and 12 board exams are to be held in May, the online examination forms of the board of secondary education are likely to be filled in January, under normal circumstances the forms are to be filled in November.
Bring a 'No-Detention' policy and opt for Mass Promotion
In the case of the final exams of the year, the main government sources said that the government already has a 'no-detention' policy, the government can opt for mass promotion, while private schools are free to take online exams for assessment. We will give test papers to the students of government schools, the answers of which they will have to write from home, ”the chief minister said.
Even if schools open, there will be less than 100 days of study
Students are currently studying online after schools closed in March amid Corona's chaos. Earlier, the government had announced that schools in the state would remain closed till Diwali. However, schools could not start even after Diwali. Studies are conducted online from March, but 60 per cent of students cannot study online, while only 40 per cent of children study online. If schools remain closed after Diwali, students will lose more than 100 days of study and only 100 days for study. It is not possible to complete the entire course in such a long time. In this situation, Gujarat Education Board is also preparing to give mass promotion in Std. 1 to 9 and 11.
Consideration to take examination in three main subjects of standard 9 and 11
According to sources, if schools do not start by the end of December, students studying in Std 1 to 8 will have to be given mass promotions, while in Std 9 and 11, only three major subjects will be examined and the results will be declared. There is also a 30 per cent cut in the syllabus when the board's standard 10 and 12 board exams will be taken and there is a possibility that the exams will be taken by OMR method.
