The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will announce the examination schedule for classes 10 and 12 on February 2, Union Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ said on Thursday.
When released, CBSE class 10, 12 Board Exams 2021 date sheet would be available on the official website of the board – https://www.cbse.nic.in/.
Pokhriyal had announced that CBSE Class 10, 12 Board exams 2021 will be held between May 4 and June 10.
The CBSE Class 10, 12 Board Exams will be taken by lakhs of students across the country. The Centre has allowed schools in non-containment zones to open in phases, with reduced attendance and COVID-19 safety protocols.
Here are probable reasons for the delay in release of datesheet for CBSE Class 10, 12 board exams 2021:
1) Administrative and logistic reason: Due to COVID-19 outbreak, CBSE will face a huge challenge of maintaining ultra-hygienic requirements like floor sanitization, social distancing, masks, face shields, and sanitisers.
2) Announcement of the election dates: It is widely believed that the announcement of poll dates in 5 states - Assam, Kerala, Puducherry, Tamil Nadu, and West Bengal - could also be the major reason for the delay of the release of CBSE Class 10, 12 Board Exams 2021 date sheet.
