CBSE Class 10 and 12 Exams likely to be held in Feb-March 2021
According a top official of CBSE, the CBSE Class 10 and 12 exams will be held in February-March like every year. CBSE’s Controller of Examinations Sanyam Bhardwaj during an interview made a statement that as of now the board has no plans to delay the board exam 2021.
He also added, “While preparing the datasheet in 2019, students got more than enough gap between the two exams. Even if some exams were scheduled back to back, it was made sure that subsequent exam was easy”. “CBSE successfully completed the compartment exams amid the pandemic and based on the learning from that we will manage board exams in 2021 in offline mode”, He said to Times of India.
Giving much relief to the students, he said that this year there is a possibility that students will get more gap days between their exams than the previous year due to the COVID-19 situation and academic loss.
“While preparing the datasheet in 2019, students got more than enough gap between the two exams. Even if some exams were scheduled back to back, it was made sure that subsequent exam was easy”, he added.
Bhardwaj hoped that state governments will soon reopen schools and students will get time to prepare for the exams. “Usually, schools get around 1.5 months. This year, they may get more than two months to conduct practical exams and complete all formalities while keeping COVID-19 guidelines in mind”.
