GCE (O/L) results – what Department of Examinations has to say
Posted by Ajith on April 1, 2008
Department of Examinations plans to issue G. C. E. (O/L) results through its website http://www.doenets.lk by Thursday, as we learn from newspapers.
I feel this is the ideal time to start a discussion how far the Sri Lankan education system has fared, using the G.C.E. O/L results as a yard stick.
According to Department of Examinations, this was the percentages of candidates who have passed in selected individual subjects in 2006 G. C. E. (O/L) examination. Full list and more information is available at the Department of Examinations site http://www.doenets.lk/GCE/web/docs/statistics/pdf.pdf
BUDDHISM – 82.25%
SAIVISM – 86.03%
CHRISTIANITY – 91.32%
ISLAM – 86.19%
SINHALA LANGUAGE & LIT. – 79.19%
TAMIL LANGUAGE & LIT. – 83.40%
ENGLISH LANGUAGE – 36.82%
MATHEMATICS – 42.63%
SCIENCE & TECHNOLOGY 48.35%
SOCIAL STUDIES & HISTORY – 75.48%
ENGLISH LITERATURE – 71.20%
SINHALA LITERATURE – 62.79%
TAMIL LITERATURE 57.15%
ART – 54.45%
DANCING (S) – 83.07%
DANCING (B) – 78.71%
MUSIC (S) – 63.56%
MUSIC (C) – 66.50%
MUSIC (W) – 90.60%
DRAMA & THEATRE – 94.80%
HISTORY – 56.62%
GEOGRAPHY – 60.64%
DEVELOPMENT STUDIES – 87.80%
HEALTH & PHY.EDUCATION – 91.13%
BUSSINESS & ACCOUNTING – 81.44%
HOME ECONOMICS – 73.44%
Hope this information is adequate to pin point the culprits. English (37%) and Mathematics (43%) are the two subjects that reported the lowest pass scores.
