Kerala-Thiruvananthapuram
By Our Staff Reporter
It was one mark that separated Lakshmi Rajan of the Carmel Girls' High School from the list of third rank holders; also preventing her from becoming the lone entrant from the city schools in the `coveted' top three rank lists. Of the 231 students who figure in the first fifteen ranks list, only 37, are from schools in Thiruvananthapuram city. Even in this list, the distribution of rank holders from rank four down, is not even. There is just one candidate from city schools for ranks four, six seven and nine. There are two candidates from the city who have secured ranks 8 and two, rank 11. There are 3 candidates who have secured rank 13 and four each for ranks 10 and 12. It is for rank 14 that there are maximum claimants from schools in Thiruvananthapuram-10, while there are eight claimants from city schools for rank 15. Of the city schools that managed to make the `first fifteen' rank list, the Carmel GHS tops the list with 10 rank holders from its fold. The Holy Angels Convent and the Nirmala Bhavan School come second with six ranks each. The Cotton Hill Girls High School comes third with 5 rank holders while the Model Boys High School has a lone rank holder in the first fifteen list. No other Government school in the city was able to find one of its students in the top fifteen ranks. Of the 37 `first fifteeners' from the city 28, are from unaided schools, six from government schools and the rest from the aided schools. Twenty-three schools from the Thiruvananthapuram educational district were able to secure cent per cent pass in this year's SSLC examination. Of these 21 schools are in the unaided sector while the rest, two, are from the government sector. A total of 44,844 candidates had written the examinations from schools falling under the Thiruvananthapuram revenue district. Of these 12,662 students passed from government schools, 11203, from aided schools and 4884, from unaided schools. The pass percentage for girls is 35.67 while that for boys is 28.44; a total of 64.11. The average mark secured by girl students from the district is 289 and by boys is 253. The average mark secured by all the students writing from Thiruvananthapuram revenue district is 272. The pass percentage of Government schools in the district is 60.64, while the corresponding figure for aided schools is 58.97 and that for the unaided schools is 98.31. The average mark in the district for students of Government schools is 251, while it is 249 for those from aided schools and 446 for students from the unaided schools in the revenue district.
