Following the cancellation of Class 12 exams, Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Friday constituted a 12-member committee to decide well-defined objective criteria for the evaluation of Class 12 students.
The committee, which comprises Joint Secretary Education, Vipin Kumar, Commissioners of the Kendriya and Navodaya Vidyalayas, and representatives from the CBSE, and UGC among others, will have to submit its report in 10 days.
"In view of the uncertain conditions due to COVID and the feedback obtained from various stakeholders, it was decided that Class XII Board Examination of CBSE would not be held this year. It was also decided that CBSE will take steps to compile the results of class XII students as per well-defined objective criteria in a time-bound manner," CBSE said.
Notification added that the Committee will be informed shortly about the schedule of the first meeting for discussion on the issue.
The government on Tuesday cancelled the CBSE class 12 board exams amid the continuing COVID-19 pandemic across the country with Prime Minister Narendra Modi asserting that the decision was taken in the interest of students and the anxiety among students, parents and teachers must be put to an end.
The decision was taken at a high-level meeting chaired by Modi in which it was decided that the CBSE will take steps to compile the results of Class 12 students according to well-defined objective criteria in a time-bound manner.
It was also decided in the meeting that in case some students desire to take the exams, such an option would be provided to them by the CBSE as and when the situation becomes conducive.
Following this, the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) scrapped the ISC (Class 12) exams for this year, saying that a scheme for evaluating the students will be announced soon.
Several states, including Odisha, Maharashtra, Uttar Pradesh Haryana, Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Goa and Uttarakhand have also cancelled the Class 12 board exams while few others said they will take a call soon.
