CBSE's draft scheme for Class X's 2 exams triggers confusion

CBSE's draft scheme for two exams for Class X has raised doubts and created confusion.

- ANU KURUVILLA @Kochi

As per the draft scheme, two exams will be conducted for Class X to enable students to improve their performance. However, according to stakeholders, the draft scheme doesn't consider various factors.

One major concern raised by parents is the schedule for the two exams. "As per the tentative date sheet, it can be seen that the exams extend to May and the results would only come in by the end of May or early June. However, in Kerala and most of the southern states, the admissions to Class XI under state boards start in May and finish by June. Hence, students from CBSE who want to join the state boards would find themselves in a difficult situation," said a teacher of a CBSE school in Kochi.
