NAGPUR: The Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) schools have taken a big leap in the results of the SSC examination which was announced on June 17 by the Maharashtra state board of secondary and higher secondary education (MSBSHSE). With a passing percentage of 99.31, students of NMC schools have shown their resilience.
Dilip Dive, education committee chairman, said, “We tried for 100% results, and almost achieved it. From the last six months, with the help of an NGO, we went to each and every school to help students with whatever difficulties they might be facing.”
Moreover, the Marathi medium schools of NMC have shown that they are not trailing behind by achieving a passing percentage of 100. Furthermore, NMC schools have been fractionalized into four mediums whose results were also quite astounding, with Hindi medium at 98.45 percent and Urdu and English at 99.77 and 99.31 percent respectively.

Expressing gratitude, Subhash Upase, assistant education officer, said, “The reason we were able to achieve success was due to the efforts of NMC teachers. They took online classes from the first day of school. Whereas during offline classes, teachers also took extra classes on holidays.”
