PEECS: Entrance Coaching Scheme of Govt  
The Public Entrance Examination 
Coaching Scheme (PEECS) of the Government of Kerala will take off in 
June 2013. The Programme was announced in the Budget for 2013-14 by the 
Finance Minister. The innovative project of the Higher Education 
department, aimed at giving free coaching to Higher Secondary students 
of the state, both in the Government and Aided sector, for taking up the
 Entrance Examinations in Engineering and Medicine will commence in 
June, 2013.
In the first stage, the programme will
 be implemented for the second year students of Plus two. By July, after
 the admissions are completed for 2013-14, the scheme will be extended 
to the first year students also of Plus Two stream in Government/Aided 
Higher Secondary schools in the state. The scheme will have two 
components mainly. 
One component of PEECS will be the 
telecasting of classes, each of one hour duration, based on the topics 
in the syllabi for the Entrance Examinations of Kerala. 
Coaching will be imparted for 
Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology (Botany and Zoology). The 
one hour session will have a ‘subject’ discussion part and ‘question 
& answer’ discussion part. The number of classes for each subject 
for covering the entire syllabus is likely to be around 60. The classes 
will be telecast through the VICTERS channel of IT@ School. The telecast
 will be so scheduled during the school time so that the students get 
the facility to view the programme along with the teacher engaging the 
subject in the school. The classes that are telecast during the school 
time will be telecast again in the evening/night. 
The second component of the scheme is 
the online practice test. After the telecast of a class on a topic is 
completed, the students will get the facility to attend online practice 
tests on that topic as per the Entrance pattern. This facility will be 
provided through the PEECS website to be hosted with the technical 
support of IT@School. 
This test can be taken by the student 
from the school or from home or at any place having a computer with 
internet facility. After the test is completed, the student will get to 
know the score, the answers to the questions with explanatory notes. As 
the scheme progresses, more question sets will be added to the Question 
Bank being developed side by side so that the students will get the 
facility to take more practice tests. The students will have to register
 at the website to get all these facilities. This will be done through 
the institutions they are enrolled. 
The student will also get the facility
 to post a question to an expert in the subject and get answer to that. 
The progress of the students will also be monitored under the scheme. By
 the time the entire course is covered, the student will have the 
facility to answer a full question paper online as per the entrance 
pattern. A Question bank is also being planned as a component of the 
scheme. The entire facilities related to the scheme will be provided 
free of cost to the students. 
Faculty from Higher Secondary Schools 
and Colleges and retired faculty from Colleges have been identified for 
engaging the classes under PEECS. Although the scheme is being 
implemented for the KEAM Entrance Examinations now, it is expected to be
 extended to more areas in the coming years.
