Share

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Monday announced that the board exams for classes 10 and 12 will be held most likely in March-April 2021. The exam date sheet will soon be released on the official website of CBSE – www.cbse.nic.in.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic situation, a lot of speculations were made regarding postponement of the exams; however, Board Secretary, Anurag Tripathi, during a webinar on “New Education Policy (NEP): Brighter Future of School Education” said, “The board exams will happen for sure and a schedule will be announced very soon. The CBSE is making plans and will soon reveal how it will do test assessments. During March-April we were flummoxed as to how to move forward, but our schools and teachers rose to the occasion and transformed, trained themselves in using new technology for teaching purposes, and within few months conducting online classes using different apps became normal.”

Even though, now it is clear that the exams will not be postponed, there is no clarity on the examination format.
