Amid the 2nd wave of CoViD-19 Global Pandemic and strict lockdown, Golden Gate successfully conducted the Final Exams 2077 starting from 16th Jestha, 2078 in Online (Virtual) Mode. Almost 98% of the students enthusiastically participated in the exams. Very few students from pre-School, especially the Nursery class couldn’t make it due to some technical reasons and they are also being evaluated using some other alternative tools.
Prior to the Examinations, level-wise parent’s meetings were held for the needful discussions. The participation and feedback of the parents were highly encouraging.
