Government schools across the national Capital would be conducting remedial classes for students of class IX and XII during the upcoming winter break to improve the annual board results.
The schools have been directed to address the issues of students with regards to syllabus and make revision of the course. Additional Director of School Education Sunita S Kaushik has asked the school authorities to inform the parents and students well in advance. The classes would remain compulsory as the attendance would be counted in the total annual attendance.
“Students and their parents must be informed about these classes well in advance through school assembly and diary notes. The attendance is compulsory and it will be counted in the total attendance of the students,” said Kaushik through a circular.
The teachers have been directed to conduct revision and practice of the subject to prepare students for the Annual Board examination.
“The teachers are advised to make optimum utilisation of support material provided and also of value based questions for Class XII. There will be three classes for three subjects everyday. Time of each class will be one hour. All the subjects including vocational stream will be incorporated for these classes. Number of periods devoted to each subject will depend upon the need of the individual school,” added Kaushik.
The schools will remain closed for winter break from December 25 to January 15 of the next year for primary classes and from December 31 to January 15 next year for students of classes VI to XII. As per the past practice, remedial classes will be held at the school premises for all the students of class XII of all streams during
