The results of the Secondary School Certificate (SSC) and equivalent examinations were published three weeks after the government's initial announcement that they would be made public. This late publication of results poses a pertinent question in the minds of around 19 lakh examinees and all others concerned.
We guess that the new government wanted to evaluate the scripts of the SSC and equivalent examinees, genuinely breaking the previous years’ tradition of awarding inflated marks to students and hiding the real picture of their performance. The students, teachers, guardians, and the education administration of the country, however, were led to believe...

Do government teachers’ activities encourage further privatisation of education? Education has yet to overcome its negative aspects, which it has been struggling with for a long time. December is the month of annual examinations for SSC candidates to assess their progress and achievement, while other students dream of advancing to the following higher classes and then enjoy the year...

The COVID situation and the theatre of introducing a so-called 'competency-based' curriculum pushed the teaching and learning situation to the lowest rung. In the true sense of the term, the teaching-learning scenario, receiving and giving education evaporated many years back from our classes, educational institutions, and society, with some exceptions occurring in some institutions like missionary and privately run...
With a view to improving the quality of secondary education in Bangladesh, the government has taken different initiatives. Providing training to the teachers is one of the significant mechanisms aiming to develop their creativity and innovation. BRAC is supplementing the government’s efforts in these areas. It’s a matter of great pleasure for all of us that secondary level education...
The national scene of education in terms of passes percentage in the secondary and higher secondary levels show a rising trend every year. But quality still remains a question. Maybe, the quality also is increasing but not up to the mark. This year the pass percentage of HSC has improved from last year’s 75.08 to 78.67. In 2010 this...

One of the most important changes is that students do not have or very little homework, which exacerbates...
