The Cadets are prepared for the Secondary School Certificate
(Matriculation) and Intermediate examinations conducted by the Board of
Intermediate and Secondary Education, Rawalpindi and General Certificate of
Education 'O' Levels from University of Cambridge.
The promotion from the School to the College classes is not
automatic. Admission to the 1st year class depends upon the boy's result in
the Matriculation/GCE'O' Level Examination and his conduct. The decision
whether a boy is fit for admission to the 1st year class or take up the
Pre-engineering or Pre-medical course in the 1styear class rests entirely
with the College.
For the internal assessment of the cadet, terminal tests in
May/June and in December, a Home Task Test after the summer vacation and the
Annual Promotion Examination in March are held during the academic year. In
the first three tests, the cadets are generally examined from the course
covered during the term while in the annual promotion examination, they are
tested from the whole course covered over the academic year. Cadets failing
in any two subjects in two terminal examinations or promotion
examination are detained in the same class. Those cadets who fail for the
second time are withdrawn from the College.
In the event of the failure of the scholarship holder to show
satisfactory progress i.e. 60% marks in the terminal test, home task test and
promotion examination, the scholarship is reduced or in more serious cases,
withdrawn.◙
