This is not the story of only Jaspreet but many others who find studying English an ardous task. Jaspreet Singh said that students could not study English during the last few months of the exams due to absence of regular teacher. “We did not have regular English lectures after December, so we could not prepare for the exam,” he said. Jaspreet Singh is a students at the Govt High School at Majaat village. “I feel the situation did not change a bit. Last year, the Mathematics results were very weak. This year it happened with English. These two are the most important subjects and our school is lagging behind in these two. It is a matter of great worry for us,” said Hakam Singh, a member of the committee looking after the school. Hakan Singh blamed the teacher and said that teachers are not putting in enough efforts and children are suffering. Parwinder Singh, who also failed in English examination, said that their regular English teacher went on leave in December after which their social studies teacher started teaching them English in January and the exams were in March. “Our studies suffered as we were not able to finish the syllabus in the last days. We also tried to take private tuition but since no good teacher was available in our village, so we failed in the examination,” Parwinder said. “The results are bad. Since there was no regular English teacher in the last months, we could not do anything. The English teacher went on maternity leave and then we had to make some alternative arrangements. Last year we were weak in Mathematics, this year we improved a lot and out of 31 students, 25 (80.64 per cent) students passed the exam,” said Kashmir Kaur, additional headmistress of the school.
