        1)            There  is no mention of character and descipline in  the 
                      present policy.

        1) The  present  syllabus  is meant to  enhance  power  of 
                      writing  and grammar but does not contribute  to  career 
                      development.

        1)             The  main reason for low standard of education is  lack 
                      of competent and committed teachers.

        1)            Frequent changes in Policy disturb continuity of thought 
                      and action.
        
        2)            The  major requirements today is the improvement of  the 
                      actual class-room situation.
