Laurels Celebrates NIOS Success Stories
More students in Bahrain are proving that success doesn't have to come from a mainstream classroom. Laurels Centre for Global Education has announced that its latest batch of Grade 12 students under India's National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) have cleared their board exams, many with standout results. The milestone reflects a quiet shift in how academic achievement is viewed across the Kingdom. NIOS, originally created to support those who needed a second chance at education, is gaining traction among students who want a more flexible and personalised learning model. 'I congratulate the students and assure them of the high quality of our tutorials,' said P. Unnikrishnan, Chairman of Laurels Center for Global Education. Hard work and commitment 'Continuing the winning streak is not easy. It is the result of hard work and commitment. Our students and teachers are doing a commendable job,' said Adv. Abdul Jaleel Abdulla, Director of Laurels Centre for Global Education. 'NIOS is a great platform for any students to pass 10th and 12th grades in open stream and continue their pursuit in becoming a graduate. It is approved for qualifying for NEET, JEE, CAT and all other entrance examinations and college admissions in India, Canada, US and Europe.' New path forward ' These results speak volumes about what can happen when students are given space to learn at their own pace,' said the Centre Head at Laurels. 'NIOS is no longer just an alternative, it's becoming a preferred route for many.' Students like Aujoy Kumar, who scored 79%, and others including Meraj Ali at 78%, Fathima Hiba at 76%, and Noshan Naeem Ahmad at 75%, are setting a new benchmark for academic comeback stories. Each result is a reflection of resilience, support, and the value of stepping outside the onesize-fits-all schooling system. Beyond results The centre recently hosted a celebration for students, marking not just the end of a school year but the beginning of new academic and professional aspirations. Many graduates are now preparing for college applications and further training. With new enrolments open, Laurels Centre is doubling down on its mission to provide student-led, inclusive education through the NIOS programme.
