In which situation is remedial teaching most useful in KGBV?

Correct answer: When a girl is lagging in a subject

The direct answer is option A: when a girl is lagging in a subject. Remedial teaching is extra, focused teaching for a learner who has not understood some concepts or is performing below the expected level. The teacher first finds the exact difficulty, explains the idea in simpler steps, gives guided practice, checks understanding and provides further practice if needed. This can reduce learning gaps and help the learner remain connected with school. Option A is correct because falling behind in a subject is precisely the situation remedial teaching addresses. Option B is less suitable because a learner with no learning gap normally needs regular or enrichment teaching, not remedial support. Option C, school closure, is an administrative situation, not a learning difficulty. Option D, absence of a hostel, is unrelated to the teaching method. Therefore A is correct. Memory cue: remedial means repair—repair weak learning with targeted help.
