In a significant development, the state government has decided to post college-wise Intermediate examination results on the Board of Intermediate Education website from this year.
The move is an effort to check trumped-up claims about the results of students made by corporate and private junior colleges across the state.
Plans are afoot to extend the facility to schools to enable parents to know school-wise SSC results.
There was no provision till now for the public to know the results of each college and verify which institutions the toppers are from, or whether a particular college has secured 100 per cent result. The parents of students have no option but to rely on publicity and
media advertisements issued by the college managements. By posting the results of each college on the website, the government hopes that the public could make correct decisions during the admission season.
Mr K. Parthasarathi, minister for secondary education, explained: “We
have seen an unhealthy competition among corporate and private junior colleges over the last few years. The college managements falsely claim that their students achieved top ranks, and also publicise about achieving 100 per cent results to attract more applications.“ Narayana, Chaitanya students top Students of Sri Chaitanya and Narayana Groups topped the state in Intermediate first year, emerging toppers in MPC and BiPC streams respectively. Narayana student N.
Sandhya created a record by securing highest-ever marks, 437 out of 440, in BiPC to top the state, according to information. Four students from Sri Chaitanya Group V. Deepika, Avala Akhila, P.S.S. Lakshman and B. Likitha emerged toppers with 466 out of 470 in MPC stream. In MEC stream, Sri Chaitanya students A.
Nikhil and K. Prudhvi Raj got 488 out of 500.
