49 state-run schools in Goa to attain 100% results this year. Many of these schools are located in extremely interior regions with children of daily wagers, forest dwellers and tribals as their students, a majority of whom are first generation learners.
Many of these interior government schools managed the results though the school head held more than one charge. Damodar Gaonkar also doubled as head of Government High School, Gaondongrim, Canacona, where he ensured 100% results.
At Government High School, Morpirla, Quepem, the school attained 100% results for eighth year in a row, even though it is left to cater exclusively to children of tribals, who are mostly first-generation learners.
