Mangaluru: Average Performers Will Have Spl Classes | Mangaluru News – Times of India

MANGALURU: In order to assist below-average performers in SSLC exams, students coming under Belthangady BEO limits will have special classes on Sunday and Saturday. Over 200 students have benefited from the initiative since it was launched last year. The special classes starting next week will focus only on science and mathematics subjects, which are tough to crack for the majority.
Shambhu Shankar, coordinator at the Block Resource Centre in Belthangady told TOI that the SSLC preparatory exam results held a few days ago are out. “Through these results, we will separate those candidates who did not perform well in the exam. They will be picked up from each school and considered eligible for special coaching sessions on Saturday and Sunday. They will be invited to a school in Belthangady taluk headquarters. They will be taught by resource persons who have several years of experience in teaching and are experts in the subject. The special classes are held for the entire day. The candidates are also provided with lunch supplied by BCM hostel,” said Shambhu, adding that this year they may have about 200 students. They will be divided into four groups, with each batch having 50 students.
Shambhu said that resource persons will focus on relevant questions that are likely to appear in the examination. Besides, it will also help them to boost their confidence to write exams. Each candidate must score passing marks in these subjects. Because most of them cannot excel in maths and science, they are given special attention. “Last year, the helped many,” he said.
