All our efforts are to do away with rote memory with readymade answers. When children prepare from study material the examinations pattern may not reflect the same and amounts to deviation of instructions.

The printing and supply of readymade material for various types of questions will seriously affect the children thinking skills, creativity and will be viewed seriously.

In the process of revision of syllabus the teachers have to discuss the unit wise concepts during the School hours and the children take-up self study after School hours in their homes.
