Achieves feat for 32nd year; missed top slots only twice since its formation
In keeping with its tradition, Virudhunagar district stood first in overall pass percentage in Plus Two public examination for the 32nd year.
Recording a pass percentage of 97.05, a dip of 0.80% from last year’s performance, Virudhunagar remained at the top position, followed by Erode and Tiruppur districts which secured an overall pass percentage of 96.35 and 96.18 respectively.
A total of 21,580 of the 24,297 students, who appeared for the examination in Virudhunagar district, cleared it. The average pass percentage achieved by the students of 84 government schools in the district was 94.26. Out of the 8,153 students of government schools, who sat for the examination, 7,685 succeeded.
A total of 73 students, including 50 girls, secured more than 1,151 marks.
Chief Educational Officer R. Swaminathan attributed the continuing good performance of the schools to the voluntary and dedicated service of teachers.
“That every district takes efforts to give additional care to slow learners is universal. But, here the teachers through their sincere efforts have made the difference,” the CEO said.
Heads of schools had a competitive spirit and kept motivating their teachers. “In our part, we organised motivational classes for slow learners. Even counselling was given to the students who did not show much interest in studies,” Mr. Swaminathan said.
The officials, through the corporate social responsibility funds from different organisations, supplied special guidance books for slow learners. “We have also been recognising the efforts of teachers and heads of schools who come up with distinction,” he added. The district has missed the top slots only on two occasions ever since its formation.
