She congratulated the staff of the NIC, headmasters and the Education Department for working hard to prepare the software. This was a good programme and it should be continued without any interruption, she said. Details of the progress of the school, teachers, students and subject-wise performance, apart from marks of the students mandal-wise, division-wise and district-wise have been placed online.
