Board exams for 10th, 12th under NEP to continue as scheduled: NCERT Director
The new National Education Policy (NEP) ensures that board examinations for Class 10 and Class 12 students will proceed as planned, without any changes, clarified Dinesh Saklani, Director of the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT), on Tuesday.
Saklani said that these examinations will remain unchanged, putting to rest any confusion regarding their future. “There’s no need for any confusion about the board exams, as it is explicitly stated in the policy,” he said, as per Odisha TV.
For students in Class 5 and Class 8, exams are designed to prepare them for the transition to secondary education. Saklani further noted that those who do not perform well in these exams will be given a second chance, reflecting a flexible approach to help students improve and gear up for more challenging academic phases.
Additionally, Saklani elaborated on the 5 3 3 4 education structure outlined in the NEP, which includes two phases in secondary education—Grades 9 and 10 in the first phase, and Grade 12 in the second phase.
Meanwhile, in Odisha, a three-day National Workshop on the implementation of NEP 2020 was held, where the Union Education Minister highlighted the unveiling of the National Curriculum Framework (NCF) aimed at revolutionizing the country’s education system.
