CBSE Board Exams

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has decided to cancel the pending exams for class 10 and 12. The students of class 12 will be evaluated on their performance in the last three school exams. In case they are not satisfied with the marks given by the board, they can appear for the board exam at a later date to improve their performance.

The court made this suggestion in response to a plea from a group of parents, who have asked for cancellation of the remaining board exams due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

The parents in their plea said that conducting exams at this stage might expose the children to the risk of the disease. It also asked the board to allot marks to students for the remaining papers on the basis of their internal assessment and performance in practicals and examinations they took in March.

Exams from March 19 to March 31 were deferred till April and then postponed by the HRD Ministry as a nationwide lockdown was announced on March 25.

Few papers of class 10 and 12 board exams were remaining when the schools and colleges were closed. These exams were then deferred and scheduled to be conducted between July 1 and July 15.

This incident happened at the St. MaryтАЩs Convent School, Fatehpura on 3rd March. This school was allotted as the examination centre to students of St. AnthonyтАЩs School. The commerce students were gathered to write their 1st examination of Business Studies. The examination was to begin at 10:30 a.m., and at the same time the bell too was rung, but the invigilator could not hear it. Approximately after 25 minutes, i-e- at 10:55 a.m. when he saw the students of the adjacent class writing their exam, he issued orders to distribute question paper to the students. Due to this, many questions were left un-attempted of almost all the students.

The school administration accepted its fault and declared that 10 minutes were provided extra to the students, but the students deny it. The report of the incident has been sent to CBSE for final decision requesting bonus marks for students.

The question is, will the students get proper justice? LetтАЩs all hope for the best.
