The Central Board of
Secondary Education (CBSE) took the step of postponing all examinations from
classes 1 to 8 as soon as the virus reached the country. In mid-March, the
Board took the decision of postponing all the papers that were left in the
Board Exam until further notice.
Below mentioned are some of the potential decisions taken by CBSE
regarding the academic developments of school students amid the coronavirus
outbreak:
One-time measures proposed by CBSE:
- ·
Students of classes 1 to 8 may be promoted to the
higher grade without conducting exams. This decision will be taken after
adequate consultation with NCERT.
- ·
Many schools have not yet conducted the annual examination
for classes 9 and 11. These schools include all the Kendriya
Vidyalayas, Naodaya Vidyalayas and some other government and provate schools.
These schools are advised to promote the students of class 9 and 11 to the
higher grade based on their performance in project work, periodic tests, term
exams, etc. conducted so far.
- ·
When it comes to rescheduling the board examinations for
classes 10 and 12, CBSE has not yet made the final decision of if and when
the examinations will be conducted. The Board will be giving a minimum 10 day
notice to all stakeholders before scheduling the examinations again.
- ·
As the Board was not able to conduct several board
examinations for classes 10 and 12, they have decided to only conduct board
examinations for main subjects that are required for promotion and admission
into higher educational institutes.
- ·
For CBSE schools located outside India, it will be
difficult to bring the answer booklets for class 10 and 12 students back to
India for checking due to the current situation. So, the Board has decided not
to hold any examinations for class 10 and 12 students studying in CBSE schools
outside India.
- ·
Due to the coronavirus outbreak, the board has not been able to
continue with the evaluation process of answer sheets as per
schedule. Though the board has not reached a decision yet regarding the issue,
they will notify all concerned parties 3 to 4 days before the evaluation
process will be set to commence again.
- ·
To avoid being misled by rumours, all stakeholders are
hereby informed to only trust the official announcements by the Board that are
made on the Board’s website.
- ·
All schools are requested to ensure that this information is
disseminated to all concerned students by their respective schools.
Amid the covid-19 pandemic, the Board has also requested all their
stakeholders and concerned parties to be patient for further instructions.
Though the situation might not seem in the favour of students currently
studying in CBSE schools, the Board is trying to ensure that their academic
future is secure.
