Ministry of Education and Sports (MoES) on Tuesday decided to take School Leaving Certificate (SLC) examination only from the syllabus prescribed for grade X, beginning from the academic session 2063 B.S. Laba Prasad Tripathi, spokesperson of the MoES said the decision to this effect was made Tuesday as per suggestions recommended by 'SLC Study Group for MoES' constituted under the convenorship of educationist Kedar Bhakta Mathema two years ago. The MoES, in accordance with Secondary Education Syllabus 2055 BS, had been taking SLC exam from the syllabus of both Grade IX and X until the last academic session. This had caused high percentage of failures in SLC exam every academic session.

I think this is really a good news for those students who are appearing SLC examination. I think this will increase the pass pecentage( and this will decrease the suicide rate because the failure in SLC is one of the main cause of suicide in Nepal). I would like to say that it is the positive step toward the future of students.
