Rising coronavirus cases across the country have forced the govt to postpone the CBSE Class 12 board exams and cancel Class 10 exams. The Board Exams for Class 12, which were to be held from May 4 to June 14, have been postponed. The Class 10 board exam results would be prepared based on an objective criterion to be developed by the Board.
This announcement was made after a meeting between Prime Minister Sh Narendra Modi and other top officials. During the meeting, Prime Minister reiterated that the students’ well-being has to be the top priority for the Government. He also stated that the Centre would keep in mind the students’ best interests and ensure that their health is taken care of at the same time their academic interests are not harmed.
The Board exam for classes 10 and 12 are scheduled to begin from May 4, 2021. The country’s pandemic situation is seeing a resurgence of COVID 19 positive cases in many states, with a few states having been affected more than others. In this situation, schools have been shut down in 11 states. Unlike State Boards, CBSE has an all-India character, and therefore, it is essential to hold exams simultaneously throughout the country. Looking to the present situation of the pandemic and school closures, and also taking into account the safety and well-being of the students,it is decided as follows:
1. The Board Exams for Class 12 to be held from May 4 to June 14, 2021 are hereby postponed. These exams will be held hereafter. The situation will be reviewed on June 1, 2021 by the Board, and details will be shared subsequently. A notice of at least 15 days will be given before the start of the examinations.
2. The Board Exams for Class 10 to be held from May 4 to June 14, 2021 are hereby canceled. The results of the Class 10 Board will be prepared on the basis of an objective criterion to be developed by the Board. Any candidate who is not satisfied with the marks allocated to him/her will be allowed to sit in an exam as well as when the conditions are conducive to holding the exams.
