BHAKTAPUR, JUN 11 - The Office of the Controller (OCE) of Examinations, Sanothimi, has published the results of School Leaving Certificate (SLC) exams for the academic year 2069 on Tuesday.

According to OCE, 41.57 percentage of the total 547,165 students have passed the examination, more commonly known as the 'Iron Gate' among the students.

A total of 547,165 students had appeared at the 79th edition of the SLC exams held on March 13-24 earlier this year. Of them, 430,097 are regular and 117,068 are exempted students.

The pass rate has plummeted by 6 percent compared to the last year. This year's SLC result is the second worst of this decade.

The decline in the pass rate could seriously impact the education sector, claim the education policy analysts.

Organising a press conference after the announcement of the results, Examinations Controller Khagraj Baral said among the total passed, there were 96,454 boys and 71,481 girls.

Of those who passed, 16,924 have secured distinction while 76,165 secured first division, 69,830 the second and 5,016 passed in the third division.

OCE said that the result of 818 students was withheld while 6,067 students failed to appear the SLC exam while those of 230 were cancelled.

For those who failed up to two subjects, the supplementary exam will be held from August 4 to 11.

The OCE had set up 1,786 exam centres across the country with an equal number of superintendents and 2,655 assistant superintendents. Similarly, 21,890 invigilators, 7,297 peons and 19,860 security personnel were mobilised for the exams. The answer sheets were marked at 60 centres under tight vigilance.

A board meeting of the OCE that took place this morning had decided to publish the results today.

OCE has already stated that it will not publish the results in newspapers citing budget constraints. However, the newspapers can publish them if they make it free of cost.

The results can also be viewed on www.ekantipur.com.
