The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Thursday said that the result of Class 10th and 12th Board Examinations, which were cancelled in wake of the ongoing COVID-19 crisis, will be declared by 20th and 31st of July respectively.
The Board today told the Supreme Court of India that Class 12 students will be marked based on Class 11 and Class 10 results. Total marks will be based on the school’s past performance in 12th exams, it said. About 40% of the marks will be based on 12th pre-board and 60% weightage will be given to the performance of the students in Class 11 and Class 10 final exams.
While 30 per cent marks will be based on Class 11 final exam, 30 per cent marks based on best-of-three Class 10 marks, the board said. Practicals will be for a total of 100 marks and the students will be evaluated on the basis of the marks submitted by the schools.
While hearing pleas seeking directions to cancel the class 12 exams of the CBSE and CISCE amid the pandemic situation, a bench of Justices AM Khanwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari was told by Attorney General K K Venugopal that CBSE students who are not satisfied with the evaluation formula will be given an opportunity to take up Class 12 examination when the pandemic situation becomes conducive.
In the first week of June, Prime Minister Narendra Modi announced that the Education Ministry had decided to cancel the examination in wake of the present COVID-19 situation in the country.
