Improving Academic Performance at the School



The Vice Principal has the mandate to improve teaching standards and academic
performance. As a result of his efforts, the school calendar was extended by a month and "make-up"days were instituted to cover teaching time lost to "bandhs'…strikes. These adjustments have allowed students (especially Class 10) enough time to finish the syllabus prescribed by the government.

Under the direction of the school director and with the support of our Principal, Simon Lama has begun the implementation of the long-standing policies from the school management plan. This has gone a long way to improving academic standards. One result is that all nine Class 10 students passed the national board exams in 2002 and three of them passed in the 1st Division, with distinction.
