ICSE & ISC results: Outstanding performance by CMS, SFC & Christ Church students in Lucknow

Lucknow city schools namely City Montessori School, St. Francis's College and Christ Church College show an increase in the overall pass percentage in the Council exams for the academic year of 2019-2020. However, this bettered performance did not receive its due recognition as the council did not declare the toppers list this year. The schools have thus, taken it upon themselves to celebrate and laud the achievements and hard work of their students!

Banners and Newsletters go Digital

Though City Montessori School organises a 'Victory Meet' in the school campus every year for all its students scoring over 90%, the norms of social distancing did not permit the authorities to conduct one this year. This however did not stop the administration from congratulating their achievers and various video calls between teachers, students and Principles were conducted as soon as the results were declared. The school official website published a newsletter stating this year's performance have surpassed their own previous records. This year, 25 CMS students have secured marks between 99 and 99.75% in ISC and ICSE Board Examinations. A total of 2805 CMS students took the ISC Board Examination, out of which 52.26% secured between 90% to 99.75% marks and 528 students secured 95% and more marks.

While students have set up a benchmark for the following year students, they are certain that if the exams were not cancelled because of the COVID-19 pandemic, they would have improved their current results. While no exams were held for Geography, Hindi, Computers and Economics in ICSE (Class 10), the Biology paper was cancelled for ISC (class 12). All these subject, according to schools and students, help increase the percentage.
