Dimapur, June 3 (EMN): The SD Jain Higher Secondary School in Dimapur organised an award ceremony to its five toppers in the High School Leaving Certificate (HSLC) and Higher Secondary School Leaving Certificate (HSSLC) examination on June 2 at the school’s auditorium. An update from the institution informed on Sunday about the programme.
The advisor of school education KT Sukhalu addressed the ceremony. Sukhalu congratulated toppers for their meritorious achievement. He also appreciated the school authorities and managing committee for their dedication to ensure the students studying in the school are getting the best of possible education.
Lamenting at the government schools performances he said, ‘result in the board examination continues to be very poor.’
He added that the department has highly qualified teachers yet results are poor.
Citing the directives from the Ministry of Human Resource Department, he iterated, ‘the untrained teachers will lose their job if they are not trained by March 2019.’
Therefore, Sukhalu called upon the youth to undergo professional training before seeking teaching job.
Further, Sukhalu encouraged students to study not just for the sake of studying but to become someone in future. Encouraging the toppers he assured that the department will figure out ways to honour the state toppers either with financial incentives or any other forms starting from next year’s HSLC and HSSLC examination.
The HSLC’s rank holders Anjali Kumari and Kamal Basumatary were awarded with INR 50, 000 cash, while top 16th Rohan Biswas was given INR 5000 cash and a scholarship worth INR 37, 000.
The HSSLC’s commerce stream second rank holder Reha Das and the science stream top tenth Sohail Khan were awarded with INR 10, 000 cash.
The secretary of the school managing committee Ajay Sethi congratulated the rank holders and their parents for their achievement.
He assured that the managing board will continue to work towards achieving further excellence and would do everything possible to motivate and encourage student achievers.
