Educational outcomes vs. teacher migration: Excellent Class X performance in Government schools and teachers moving to private schools — classify the relationship accurately.

Difficulty: Easy

Correct Answer: Both the statements I and II are effects of independent causes

Explanation:

Given data

  • I: Most students in Government schools performed excellently in Class X finals.
  • II: Many Government-school teachers left to join private schools.

Concept/Approach

  • These outcomes plausibly arise from different drivers (e.g., exam preparation initiatives vs. private sector pay/conditions) rather than causing each other.

Step-by-Step reasoning
1) (I) is an effect of academic inputs and student effort.2) (II) is an effect of labor-market incentives.3) No necessary causal link between them → effects of independent causes.

Verification/Alternative

  • Neither (I) → (II) nor (II) → (I) is supported by the statements' content or timing.

Common pitfalls

  • Inferring that teacher exits must follow poor results (here results were excellent).

Final Answer
Both the statements I and II are effects of independent causes.
