from the far-flung Karnali Province.
Khaga Raj Baral, Secretary at Ministry of Education, Science and Technology said that the results were
not satisfactory given the investment by all three tiers of governments and the public in school education.
&We found that over 80 per cent
of students scored Grade D or less in subjects like mathematics, which is discouraging.&
Students not satisfied with the grading they
received can apply for re-totalling within 15 days of the results.
Students achieving Grade C or less in two subjects are also allowed for
chance examinations.
The eighth amendment of Education Act, 2016, had stipulated the provision to include Grade IX to Grade XII in secondary
education system, based on which the Grade X examinations have been conducted by OCE.
