Lahore, Aug 03: The Board of Intermediate & Secondary Education (BISE), Lahore, on Tuesday announced result of matriculation annual examination 2011 according to which overall pass percentage was 58.72.

A prize distribution ceremony in honour of high achievers was also held at Alhamra where Punjab Minister for Education Mujtaba Shujaur Rehman was the chief guest while BISE Chairman Prof Dr Akram Kashmiri, controller exams Prof Manzurul Hassan Niazi and other officials were also present. A total of 206,011 candidates had appeared in the Matric exams 2011 out of which 120,977 could pass the exam. According to the result gazette, the pass percentage in Science Group was 76.32 as 73,680 candidates out of total 96,536 of the group passed the exam. However, the pass percentage in Humanities Group remained 43.20 as 47,297 candidates out of total 109,475 of the group could pass the exam. It is pertinent to mention here that the result of matriculation annual examination 2011 was announced by all the BISEs of the province on Tuesday and in this connection, special functions were held at all divisional headquarters. However, the details of toppers were announced by the BISE Lahore like other boards on Monday, a day before the official announcement of the result.

Larabe Farrukh (Roll No 744499) of the Kips High School for Girls, Johar Town, grabbed the overall first position by securing 1,022 marks out of 1,050 while Saman Habib (Roll No 751497) of the LDA Model Girls High School, Allama Iqbal Town, got second position by securing 1,021 marks. The third position was shared by two candidates, Taimoor Jaffar Ali (Roll No 776018) of Crescent Model Higher Secondary School for Boys, Shadman, and Arfa Tahir (Roll No 744580) of Divisional Public Higher Secondary School for Girls, Model Town, who both secured 1,020 marks.

The result, once again, has exposed poor performance of the government schools as most of the position holders are students of private institutions. A mere comparison of high achievers also makes it clear that girl students outshined boys as overall top three positions have been grabbed by them.

The overall topper was awarded a Pentium-IV computer, gold medal and cash prize of Rs 20,000. The student with second position was awarded a silver medal and Rs 15,000 while the third position holder was awarded a bronze medal and Rs 10,000. Similarly the toppers of different groups were awarded these prizes except Pentium-IV computer.

Speaking on the occasion, the minister for education said education was top priority of the Punjab government and measures were being taken to uplift the sector. He talked about new online system of admission at some public colleges of the province.

He further said the position holders would be invited by the chief minister for a special ceremony and prizes would be awarded to them besides a guard of honour would also be organised for them during their stay at Murree in the coming days.

Schools Secretary Muhammad Aslam Kamboh, Higher Education Department Additional Secretary Zarak Mirza and a large number of students and their parents attended the ceremony.

The extreme hot weather together with poor functioning of ACs at Alhamra greatly irked participants of the ceremony. Meanwhile, different student organisation set up camps and offered free results to students.
