While all the eight students pass, four of them get A+ in every subject
Overcoming many hurdles, students of the Government School for the Blind at Olassa — the lone high school for visually impaired students run by the Kerala government — have cleared this year’s SSLC examinations with flying colours. All the eight students of the school have passed the exams. Four have scored A+ in all subjects, a rare fete in itself. Among the remaining four, two got A+ in nine subjects while the remaining two got A+ in seven and four subjects respectively. What, however, differentiates this success story from others is not how they coped with blindness to score big but how a group of goodwill-driven persons inspired them to breach the limits and script success. From a severe shortage of teaching staff to the barriers of remote learning for children with disabilities, these youngsters had to overcome a set of very unusual challenges this year to achieve the fete.More Related News
