Council Examination Results (2021)

Perhaps the best option available to Boards of Examination in the country was applied this year in determining the results of candidates for school leaving examination courses. This was based on the award of marks in school assessments and tests and previous academic achievement, through a determined formula. These results were announced today.

The charge of ‘leniency’ in calculating marks is significantly countered by the trends observed by the teachers concerned, who had some knowledge of the academic ability of their pupils. Happily, there has been a discernible trend where pupils known to have advanced academic merit have been so recognised. This is the best that could be achieved under the circumstances.

Historically, this is the first time in the history of the College that a physical school leaving examination was replaced by a system based on cumulative assessment and previous academic achievements. The only other example of the school leaving examination not being conducted was in 1917, long before the digital generation, when, due to World War I, the examination papers that were sent via sea mail from Cambridge, U.K. could not be received.

All candidates have been awarded certificates in the ICSE (Year 10) and the ISC (Year 12) Examinations.
