 6-- ATTACHING CLASS VIII TO HIGHER
 SECONDARY SECTION AND SPREADING
 THE  COURSE TO FOUR YEARS
 

One of the main recommendations of the Commission for the Reform of Higher Secondary Education was that class VIII be attached to the Higher Secondary section of the Higher Secondary schools. This is the delta class wherein the aptitude and interest of child can well be determined and if this delta class is attached to the Higher Secondary section, the school authorities can give proper guidance to the students entering the Higher Secondary course as they can form a concrete opinion about the aptitude of the child for diversified courses.
