Examination

Difficult roads often lead to Beautiful destinations

Examinations are considered as a source of grading the students’ capabilities. At N L Dalmia High School, besides examinations, we also lay emphasis on behaviour, attendance and class performance.  We ensure that the annual exams held at the end of the year alone don’t become the sole deciding factor for judging a child’s academic performance. Hence we follow the system of averages that takes into consideration a child’s performance throughout the year and gives as much weightage to weekly / unit tests and semester exams as to the annual exams.
