Class X first batch of Global Indian International School Balewadi achieve notable results in CBSE 2020-21 board exams

Pune : Students of GIIS SMART Campus, Balewadi, part of the Singapore-based global network of premier International schools, achieved noteworthy academic feats in the recently announced CBSE Class X results. The board exams were cancelled this year due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and the increasing number of cases in the country.

Representing first batch of Grade X at GIIS Balewadi, Aayushi Sanadhya topped the school with 95.6% while Pranav Satti and Om Kolekar scored 91.2% and 89.6% respectively to secure the second and third positions. The school achieved a 100% pass percentage with 60% students scoring above 80% aggregate marks.

The evaluation criteria for granting the final marks this year was based on the assessment scheme. Due to the absence of Board Examinations, this was the preferred method to declare the results. The results were therefore drawn up considering students’ performance in internal evaluations, periodical tests, half-yearly examinations, and pre-board examinations.

Commenting on the performance of his students, Dr. NKP Ashok Raj, Principal of GIIS Balewadi (Pune) said, “In these extraordinary circumstances it is highly gratifying to see our students perform well in the board exams with many students scoring excellent marks in various subjects. It is imperative to mention that GIIS has a remarkable history of students performing exceptionally well in all appearances of life. GIIS has achieved such commendable outcomes by continuously supporting our teachers and the earnest efforts of our students. We are delighted with our students’ achievements and want to thank the parents for their ongoing support. I would also like to thank the students for showing resilience during these challenging circumstances.”

GIIS’ constant endeavour to deliver quality education to its students with a strong emphasis on enhancing their learning outcomes has been a crucial factor in the excellent performance showcased by its students. The school has SMART Campuses around the world, which uses savvy technology and latest infrastructure to impart education that is relevant for the 21st century. This includes dedicated music studios, sports facilities, digital classrooms, blended learning frameworks and data analytics for best student performances.
