[The school abused its authority in the assessment of SEE]
By Rabindra Dhungel, 29 August 2020. The school has been found to have misused the right given to evaluate the students of the Secondary Education Examination (SEE) of 2076 BS. A comparison of the results of the last three years confirms that the teacher has abused his authority.
It has been found that the school has given more marks than the student’s mark as per the arrangement made by the teacher of the concerned school to send the marks to the Education Development and Coordination Unit, the unit will send it to the National Examination Board and the board will certify and issue the certificate.
The board has converted the marks sent by the school into alphabetical order. It has been found that there are 78,109 students who get 3.6 to 4.0 GPA in the SEE of 2076 BS. While the GPA of 3.6 to 4.0 was 18 thousand 37 in 2074 BS and 17 thousand 580 in 2075 BS. Last year’s results were analyzed as unnatural. According to the Examination Control Office, there were about 453,000 students in 2074 BS, 459,000 students in 2075 BS and 482,000 students in 2076 BS. In the SEE of 2076, there were nine thousand 309 bringing GPA 4.0. While in 2074 BS there were 74 people and in 2075 BS there were 106 people.
Chairman of the National Examination Board Prof. Dr. Chandramani Poudel was not given the right to verify. He said that the verification was done on the basis of what was sent by the school. The school has evaluated the students based on the final results of class-10. Some schools did not take the final exam and were sent with the estimated marks they could get if they joined the SEE exam, while others gave higher marks under the pressure of students and parents. Some schools took it as a golden opportunity and gave high marks. According to the results obtained from Panika Sutra, in 2076 BS, the school has assessed the highest GPA between 2.4 and 2.8.
Six months have passed since the impact of covid-19. The class-12 examination, which was stopped at that time, is still not in a condition to be conducted. Therefore, the method adopted by the government at that time to prepare the results of SEE was in line with good intentions and practice in the world, but the result seems unnatural due to the wrong intentions of the teachers.
