Grace marks may be allotted to II PU students
The Hindu
Parents and students pointed out that students do not take I PU exams seriously, but work very hard for II PU exams
Grace marks may be allotted for second year pre university (II PU) students, who will be given marks/grades based on their SSLC and I PU marks. This is after the II PU examinations were cancelled due to the second wave of COVID-19 infections. R. Snehal, Director, Department of Pre-University Education (DPUE), told The Hindu that the department was planning to award overall grace marks to the total score. “This is because many students would have put in a lot of effort for the II PU board examinations. With the examinations cancelled, we want to make sure that their efforts are considered,” she said. The department decided to mull over this idea after parents and students highlighted that students do not tend to take the I PU examinations very seriously but work very hard for their II PU exams.More Related News
