Semester system

2019-04-19
THE Punjab government should replace the semester system in educational institutions in the province because it does not suit our society.

It is my observation that this system has failed to accurately test and evaluate students.

On the other hand, it gives teachers a lot of undue control over students and this is unfair. There are numerous reports in the media about such exploitation.

I therefore suggest that we revert to the annual system of education.

In order to make this system more effecdve,the papers ofone universitycan be sent for marking to another campus and the teachers whose results are consistently unsatisfactory should be proceeded against under the Punjab Employees Efficiency Discipline and Accountability Act.
