Centre on Wednesday decided to cancel the Class 10 board exams and reschedule Class 12 boards
NEW DELHI: Keeping in view rising Covid cases and apprehensions expressed by students and school administrators, the Centre on Wednesday decided to cancel the Class 10 board exams and reschedule Class 12 boards with a decision to be taken on fresh dates on June 1.
The decisions were taken at a review meeting chaired by Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Initial discussions considered rescheduling both Class 10 and 12 exams but the Prime Minister is understood to have remarked that students had already suffered considerable uncertainty and should be spared further travails to the extent possible. The meeting decided that the Class 10 board exams be scrapped with students unhappy with their results permitted to take the tests whenever they are held next.
Ranchi: Although the state government in a late evening order on Thursday allowed schools to reopen from Class VIII onwards, most of the educational institutions said they will go ahead with their plan to conduct the year-end examinations online.
Principal of Guru Nanak Senior Secondary School Manohar Lal said, “There will be no change in the examination plan of our school and several others. The dates of tests have already been announced.”
Lal also said this time, his school will emphasise more on multiple choice questions (MCQ) than subjective types. During the examinations, students will be divided into smaller groups for closer monitoring by teachers.
