Scrapping of Board Exams????

I was delighted to hear the new plans for the education system in our country. Finally some change for the better. Our current system isn't making our childhood happy and free. We live under the constant pressure of getting high marks and coming first. The ones who have good memory excel and the ones who maybe slow suffer. The system tests student's memory and not whether they have really grasped the concepts. If you ask the students one application question, I'm sure that 95 % of them will funble and fail.

Hoping for change in the way we learn the basic necessities of life...hoping we give our children the joys of being a child!
