AHMEDABAD: State government has reiterated it is not considering the option of mass promotion of school students due to Covid-19 pandemic. In fact, state education minister Bhupendrasinh Chudasama said that school exams will be conducted and students evaluated before being promoted to the next academic year.
“Schools in Gujarat will conduct exams for class 1-8 and 9 and 11 to evaluate the students on the basis of the syllabus taught online,” Chudasama told TOI. “If the entire syllabus has not been taught online due to the corona pandemic, the students will be evaluated on basis of the limited syllabus taught,” the minister added.
