Associations appeal to the State government to announce the schedule early
As teachers prepare senior students to take the revision exams from January 19 in State Board schools, they are still awaiting clarity on the final schedule this year.
Following the cancellation of quarterly and half yearly exams, the School Education Department announced two rounds of revision exams in January and March for Classes X and XII.
“The first round of exams will cover portions that we completed till the end of December. The reduction in syllabus and six working days a week helped most schools complete the portions in time,” said A. Ramu, State President, Directly Recruited Post-Graduate Teachers Federation. But the students still need a lot of motivation to take the exams seriously. “We are trying to help them prepare better by giving practice questions and by clearing their doubts, but some are yet to take it seriously,” he said.

Selected from 9,400 submissions across 37 countries, the 100 photographs on display traverse intimate and political terrains. In MRC Nagar, photographer Swastik Pal captures life in the Sundarbans, where severe climate change has brought humans and wildlife into closer contact. Shane Hynan’s Beneath Beofhod reflects on Ireland’s boglands as sites of memory and restoration, while Mateo Trevisan’s More than the Sun examines the impact of coal-driven industrialisation in the Western Balkans.
