PM Oli claims digital learning helped improve SEE results

Kathmandu, June 29: Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli has expressed happiness over the progress in results of this year’s Secondary Education Examination (SEE). He said it was quite encouraging.

In an audiovisual message released on Sunday, PM Oli stated all sides concerned need to adopt adequate measures to improve the results. He reminded his commitment in the parliament on improving this year’s SEE results. Expressing happiness that about 61.81% of examinees graded this year, PM Oli congratulated everyone graded in the SEE.

According to him, a campaign to improve the SEE exam had led students in villages to start learning on mobile devices in addition to physical classes. Those in need of special guidance besides physical classes and mobile learning were ensured regular ‘online’ classes through nearly 200 teachers. “In areas without internet, Nepal Telecom made arrangements for free data. I personally encouraged the students through direct communication,” the PM explained the measures adopted to improve SEE results this year.

The PM argued that as many as 150 thousand students were directly benefitted from this campaign. In addition to these efforts, if the students had not worked hard, there could not fare well.

The Head of the government said the results last year had disappointed us. “We found that most of those non-graded in SEE were the students from remote places. Indeed, there were many challenges, and not sufficient time for preparation either. We had to reach out to students at every village,” he reminded, sharing that we adopted the measures to encourage every student for their excellence in study and exam.

Oli urged the non-graded students not to consider this as the final test of their life, but continue struggle for success later.
