Marred by the poor results, the Haryana Government is holding remedial coaching classes for the students placed in the PA-R/Re-appear category in the results of the matriculation and senior secondary examinations. The Government has asked the parents or guardians of such students of Government schools to send their wards to their respective schools for remedial coaching classes.
These classes have been started exclusively for the benefit of their children as it has been observed that the students are not attending the classes regularly, said the Secondary Education Department spokesperson. He said that the results of the matriculation and senior secondary examination conducted by the Board of School Education, Haryana, showed that the performance of Government schools was far from satisfactory.
“This made the Government issue instructions that in all Government schools where the result in individual subject is less than 50 per cent, regular teachers will take extra remedial classes during the summer vacation. This measure has been taken to enable the PA-R/Re-appear category students to prepare for the supplementary exams,” he said.
The department has deputed officers from the headquarters as well as from the field to inspect schools to ascertain whether the students are attending the classes regularly or not. Inspection will be carried out next week and if found that the attendance of students is less than 50 per cent in most schools, the department will be left with no other option but stop these classes which will ultimately hurt the interest of students, he added.
Spokesperson said that coaching would also be continued after the declaration of results of the supplementary examination, and up to March 31, 2016, in case students fail to clear the PA-R/Re-appear. He said that the re-appear examinations for the students of Class 12 which are normally held in the September had been advanced and shall now be held in July 2015, to facilitate the successful candidates to get admission in higher classes or courses.
As many as 1,64,090 students had appeared for the matriculation examination out of which 49,746 qualified, 45,074 were PA-R cases and 62,873 were re-appear cases. In the senior secondary examination, 1,25,468 students appeared, out of which 64,701 qualified, 30,782 were PA-R cases and 28,247 were Re-appear cases.
