1988/’17
Hon. I. Charles Nirmalanathan,— To ask the Minister of Higher Education and Highways,—
(a) Is he aware that—
(i) students from various districts enter the schools in districts that have low cut-off marks, but they study in educational institutions with better facilities and finally enter the university following the
G.C.E (Advanced Level) examination through the quota system functional for each district where the school is based;
(ii) due to the issue mentioned in (i) above, students those living in the districts with lower cut-off marks and study in the same district are deprived of the opportunity to gain university entrance through the quota; and
(iii) after enrolling students on the basis of grading by district level for the university entrance, a change has taken place in that order ?
(b) If so, will he inform this House, whether measures will be taken to prevent students coming from other districts enter schools in districts with low cut-off marks and against the schools that admit students in such a manner, after considering the plight of the students who study in the same districts, with low cut-off marks, where they are registered?
(c) If not, why?
