www.educationboardresults.gov.bd HSC Result 2014 Alim Result 2014. Higher students have done better than ever in every way in
this year's Higher School Certificate examinations by making the best of extra
classes held by better trained teachers.
The pass rate rose 2.95 percentage points over last year,
the results published yesterday revealed. Nearly 45,000 more students got GPA-5
than last year as well.
Startling results
The number of GPA-5 achievers has been increasing every year
over the last five years along with the pass rate. This year's pass rate was
92.67 percent whereas it was 78.19 percent in 2010.
Officials and teachers gave the credit to a concerted
effort. Applying creative questioning method in 21 subjects, expanding
teachers' training on creative questioning, special care on English and
mathematics, better nurturing by teachers and guardians, and students' reliance
on textbooks rather than guidebooks have contributed to the success, they
observed.
Use of information and communication technology in
classrooms of many schools also helped the students better understand lessons
and answer questions better during exams, they said.
"The creative method opened up the scope for nurturing
students' talents. They apply their creativity under this method," Prof
Taslima Begum, chairman of Dhaka Board, told The Daily Star.
The students now have to read the textbooks thoroughly as it
is not possible to answer questions without having a thorough knowledge of the
textbooks, she said.
She said they had arranged extra classes on English,
mathematics and subjects on science in around 8,000 schools which were
lagging behind.
Under the eight education boards, 10,08,174 students --
4,99,677 boys and 5,08,497 girls -- passed the HSC exams this year and 76,696
students failed.
The number of total examinees, number of successful
students, and the number of schools with cent percent pass rose remarkably.
This year 91.34 percent examinees were successful in the 10
education boards, including madrasa board and technical board. The pass rate of
last year was 89.03 percent. The number of GPA-5 achievers in the 10 boards
combined rose to 1,42,276 from last year's 91,226.
Only 76 examinees had secured GPA-5 in 2001 when the grading
system was introduced.
Yesterday, the schools across the country had a festive
look. Students and parents, who had been anxious about the results for some
time, erupted in jubilation as soon as they received the results.
The results were available in schools, on education boards'
websites and on mobile phones via text messages since 2:00pm.
Startling results
Disclosing the overall results at a press conference at his
ministry, Education Minister Nurul Islam Nahid said, "The results point to
a sustained progress in our education system."
Earlier in the morning, he handed the results in to Prime
Minister Sheikh Hasina.
Nahid said the standard of education has improved over the
previous years as students in rural areas were doing better, which is visible
in the overall results. He said they were still behind the desired level.
He said, "We have trained more than five lakh teachers
of Higher level on creative questioning method. They developed skills on the
system and in making lessons easier."
He said the students had done well in subjects like English
and maths, which helped the overall results.
According to the stats provided by the boards, the average
pass rate in English in the 10 boards is over 98 percent while the pass rate in
mathematics in around 97 percent, which were around 93 percent last year.
Asked about the pass rate in English, Amirul Alam Khan,
chairman of Jessore Board, said the questioning pattern has been changed
because of the “communicative English” being taught in schools. This helps
students get the marks they deserve, he said.
As many as 14,26,929 students from 27,435 institutions,
including seven abroad, took the exams spread over one and a half months since
February 9. Of them, 13,03,331 passed.
Boys did slightly better than the girls in terms of pass
rate, which were 91.84 and 90.81 percent.
The number of institutions with cent percent pass rate rose
to 6,210 from last year's 5,092.
However, no students passed from 24 institutions and 21 of
them were madrasas.
Rajshahi board topped the charts and Sylhet board was at the
bottom.
Asked how his board did so well, Abdur Rouf Mia, acting
chairman of Rajshahi board, said apart from training teachers, they had warned
the teachers of punitive action if their pupils failed.
In Dhaka board, Rajuk Uttara Model High School and College
topped the list of 20 best institutions. Ideal School and College, Motijheel,
and Viqarunnisa Noon School ranked second and third.
Like previous years, schools in urban areas, especially in
metropolitan cities, dominated the top-20 list, GPA-5 category and 100 percent
pass record.
Students of science group continued to outnumber and do
better than those of other groups with 96 percent pass rate. The pass rate is
89.29 percent in humanities group and 94.06 in business studies group.
The success, however, leads to a concern for many students
as they now would have to face stiff competition to get enrolled in good
colleges.
