She said private school’s management also ensures that students, especially appearing for class 10, 11, 12 board exams, will have minimum five revision tests before coming to the main exam.


"More than 90 per cent private schools have student counselling centres, which would ensure to clear exam fear of the candidates", she added.


Annie George, a Class 10 teacher in a Anglo Indian school near Broadway, said her school management will give special training to the poor performing students regularly after class hours to score good marks in the final exam.


"All academic updates of the students will be informed to the parents on regular basis in order to get their co-operation", she added.
