The practical skills acquired by the learners enable them to pursue science oriented careers.

Conclusion
It’s important that parents to encourage the students to work hard and also motivate them when they do well, keep on encouraging them that it’s possible to do very well in the sciences.

The government provides course books enough for each learner. Let’s encourage them to make good use of them. Please do not buy the revision materials for your child without consulting the school since some of these materials encourage memorizing which harms the learners since the students are expected to understand and apply the knowledge acquired.
