NEW DELHI: The Delhi government has decided that the government schools which have secured 100 per cent result in CBSE examination will be honoured by the education department. To find out such schools, the department will decide on three parameters.

The sources in the department said that the government is making the plan. If any of the three parameters are fulfilled by a school then the school will be selected. Teachers said that such a scheme has been introduced for the first time by the Delhi government and this will motivate teachers and schools to get better results.

"Work is going on right now. Under this, the talent of the schools will increase further," said an official. The schools which will have better pass percentage or have shown 100 percent result will come under this scheme.

The decision came as the pass percentage of students of Delhi government schools has increased by 2.37, touching 90.64, even as private schools in the city lagged behind at 88.35.

Meanwhile, Delhi girls again outshined boys with a pass percentage of 93.19, as against the boys' 84.93. Jawahar Navodaya Vidyalaya and Kendriya Vidyalaya continued to excel, with each recording 99.17 and 98.06 pass percentage respectively.

The schools of New Delhi Municipal Council (NDMC) also did not stay behind, recording 93.66 per cent result. This year, the number of government schools getting a 100 per cent result has also gone up from 112 to 168. Schools that have achieved 90 per cent and above have also spiked from 554 to 638 this year.
