Mangalore, September 1: With Dakshina Kannada district slumping to 21st place in SSLC examination this year, the authorities in the district have come up with 18 point formula to improve the SSLC results.

In fact, the district was in 8th position in the results in 2010. All the schools which have secured below 60 per cent results in SSLC were issued notices and feed back was collected from such schools. Details were collected from all the managing boards of all the private and unaided schools for poor performance, said DDPI Moses Jayashekar.

The action plan prepared for improving the results should be implemented effectively, he said. All the previous SSLC examination question papers will be provided to the schools at the block level. A workshop for the head teachers of those schools which had secured below 60 per cent results and the teachers in whose subject the students performed poorely, was organised at the district-level.

All those schools which had received less than 60 per cent will be adopted by all the officials at the district-level and taluk level implementation officers. In fact, the Government College of Teachers Education will provide refresher courses to those teachers in whose subject, there was poor performance.

The head teachers of the school will confirm whether teachers carry out the classes as per the time table and send a report to the block and district-level officers.

The prepared question papers along with the answer key will be selected at the block level.

A block level workshop on preparation of question papers and the answer keys will be held. The prepared question papers at the block level will be collected and printed through High SChool Teachers Association and distributed among all the schools for revision.

The students will be compulsorily made to go for copy writing in the form of letter writing, essay writing, drawing, writing poems and tables. A book will be given to each student to write the unit tests. This will help the teachers and the parents to know the learning problem in the child.

A question bank along with the answer key will be prepared at the school level and distributed among the students. Unit tests/mid term test/and preparatory examinations must be conducted at the school level and the details should be sent to the subject inspectprs, DDPI office in Mangalore.

Bengaluru, May 24: In an effort to protect passengers and staff from the risk of COVID-19 transmission, the Bangalore International Airport Limited (BIAL) has introduced a parking-to-boarding contactless journey at the airport.

With a greater emphasis on minimum touch and minimum exposure between passengers and airport personnel, BIAL aims to minimise all physical contact at the airport. The technology will continue to enable a seamless airport journey, with greater emphasis on health and safety.

"As the gateway to a new India, BLR Airport has a key role to play in helping passengers through this global health crisis by reassuring them that their safety is our top priority. We have introduced innovative contactless procedures to minimise exposure at the airport," said Hari Marar, MD and CEO, BIAL.

"These enhancements demonstrate our continued commitment to keep our passengers safe in this environment. We believe our new measures will boost confidence among passengers," continued Marar.

"BLR Airport is all geared up to welcome our passengers back and - working with various government departments - we're committed to offering them a safe experience by implementing the best-in-class standards, procedures and practices," Marar added.

Earlier, Civil Aviation Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said that domestic flight operations will resume from May 25 noting that all airlines and airports were ready but it is not viable to keep the middle seat vacant as it will lead to hike in the ticket price and prescribed social distancing norms would still not be met.
