4/8/2009 11:00:46 PM

SUMIT SHARMA
Jammu, Apr 8: While many schools, particularly in the private sector, are celebrating their ‘100%’ success in the recently declared board results for class 8, there are many yet casting aspersions on the entire examination system as schools were allowed by the Board to set up exam centers in their own premises.
The declaration of class 8 T2 External Examination Results in Jammu has led to doubts as majority of the students expecting to get distinctions and positions have been relegated to the background. Some of the school principals and the parents of the children who did not get the expected results alleged unfairness in the examinations system. They alleged the examinations as drama which was played against those schools that believe in hard work and stick to the rules and regulations. They alleged that injustice has been done to the brilliant students who after rigorous hard work have been shown down in the merit list. They attribute the bungling in the result to the connivance of education officers and some of the principals who succeeded in getting the examination centres established according to their choice.
They further alleged that those schools whose principals managed to get the examination centers established in their respective schools secured positions and distinctions where as those which stick to the rules had to face adverse results.
However, the Director Education when contacted shifted the blame on the principals and schools who failed to intimate her about it in advance. She maintained that had she been informed she would definitely taken appropriate steps.
Talking to media persons here today some of the principals of the schools said that this is the first time when T2 External Examinations of 8th class was conducted on the pattern of High and Higher secondary examinations as per the instruction of the education department making it compulsory to conduct examinations in different schools with a view to ensure transparency and minimize the chance of copying and other malpractices. It is not understood as to how some of the schools were permitted to conduct the examination in their respective schools they said and demanded an inquiry to unravel the connivance between the education department and the educational institutions.
