Karnataka allows pre-university courses in schools from next academic year

Live Mint  

In a bid to boost the quality of education at the school level, the Karnataka government has allowed pre-university courses from next academic year. "Start the Pre-University Colleges from next year in those schools which have completed 10 years and the students are in 10th standard,” Bommai said after inaugurating 'Science Expo-2023' of the Karnataka Residential Education Institution Society at the Palace Grounds here. Karnataka Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai said that all residential schools will also have to conduct competitive examinations so that students are prepared for challenges once they complete their education and go out in search of jobs. According to Bommai, "quality education will not continue" if the students have to go to various other schools after completing 10th standard because the competitive examinations for them start after completing their Pre-University education.
