Maharashtra government has decided to promote class 10th students under a new policy, which will allow them to go to class 11th despite failing in Science and Maths. This information is given under the State Curriculum Framework for School Education (SCF-SE).
According to the new policy, if students get minimum 20 marks in Science and Maths, they will be promoted to the next class. Its main objective is to reduce the school dropout rate and make the education system more flexible for students. This will give the students, in whose subjects they are performing weakly, a chance to move ahead with other subjects.
Opportunity for re-examination
However, this policy will be applicable only for Maths and Science and will not have any impact on other subjects. Apart from this, students will also be given an opportunity to re-appear in the exam to improve their marks. Many controversies are arising regarding this decision. Some experts believe that this type of policy may bring down the standard of education. His argument is that this will reduce the feeling of competition among the students, so that they can avoid working hard by being satisfied with their marks.
Impact on the future of students
Apart from this, this policy can also impact the future of the students, because a wrong message will be sent regarding important subjects like Maths and Science. In this situation, students may lose seriousness towards these subjects, which may affect the quality of education.
Opportunities for Marks Improvement
Under this new policy, it has been said that students will be given more opportunities to improve their marks. It will be important to see further whether this step actually proves beneficial for the students or not.
