Extra classes do the trick for Dangs

Dangs DEO R R Patel said,“During zero periods,teachers were asked to provide guidance to the students for the Board exam. The students were briefed about different sections of question papers and made to solve the same.”

“As the number of students was not more than 40,it helped us to give personal guidance to them,” he added.

The district has four science schools and 170 Science stream students had registered for the exams this year. The school timing was from 11 am to 5 pm,but teachers were encouraged to come an hour early for extra class. “The teachers provided them counselling and personal guidance,” Patel said,adding that almost all students who cleared the exam this year from Dangs are tribals.

On the other hand,Narmada district yet again ended up at the bottom of the district-wise list with pass percentage of 54.66. This is,however,better than its last year’s result of 36.69 per cent.
