Government vs Private Schools

| Private affiliated schools | 29,215 | 17,085 | 58.48% |
Government schools had almost twice as many candidates and consequently produced more successful students in total. However, the difference was only 1,374 passes, despite government institutions having 27,960 more candidates.
Nearly six out of every 10 private-school students passed. The corresponding figure for government schools was slightly above three out of 10.

Overall Result Declined From Last Year
The board’s overall pass percentage declined from 43.08% in 2025 to 38.46% in 2026.

What the Comparison Shows
The official figures show that private affiliated schools dominated the result based on pass percentage. Their lead remained consistent among boys, girls, Science students and Humanities candidates.
However, the gazette does not identify the reasons behind the performance gap. Student intake, attendance, school location, academic resources and institutional selection policies may influence the results.
The figures should therefore be treated as an examination-performance comparison rather than a complete assessment of education quality.
