Bengaluru: A lot of academic disabilities of students have been highlighted in the annual report submitted by the Karnataka School Quality Assessment and Accreditation Council (KSQAAC), an agency of Education department.
The KSQAAC came up with the report after conducting ‘Census-based State Achievement Survey’ (CSAS) exams in various schools of Karnataka in October-November 2018.
Shockingly, several SSLC students are not aware of antonyms in English, nearly half of the students studying in Class 7 are unable to write various sources of food, and students in Class 4 failed to identify wild animals.
According to sources, the reports have been sent to the Deputy Directors of Public Instruction of various districts in February 2019 with a direction to adopt corrective measures starting this academic year.
The state government spends crores of rupees and comes out with multiple experiments to change the current system of education, but all that seems to be of no use.
The KSQAAC suggests supplementary teaching as the solution for the current inabilities of students.
