Schools affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) warned the students about fake news and notices floating on social media citing the declaration date of Term 1 examination. The schools floated a message to students awaiting results of CBSE Class X and Class XII Term 1 board examinations on Tuesday.
Also, the message reminded students that the board will not announce results as pass, fail or essential repeat at the end of term 1. The final result will be available at the end of term 2 exams.
In term 1 exam, students were asked only objective-type questions but the second term exam will have both objective and subjective type questions.
Before the term-1 exam ends, schools were instructed to complete practical exams, internal assessment and project work.
With covid-19 omicron widespread over the country, academic session is expected to get delayed even this year.
CBSE split the board examination for class X and class XII in two terms this year.
Term 1 was conducted in November and December 2021. Term 1 examinations started from November 16, 2021 for class XII. Class XII examination concluded on December 30.
Class X examination began on November 17 and concluded on December 7. Schools in Indore conducted the term examination and noted it beneficial for students.
It may be noted that the board had shifted its evaluation policy mid-way during the CBSE Term 1 Examinations 2022 conducted during December. In a notice released by the board, CBSE had informed schools that the same day evaluation would be stopped with effect from December 16, 2021.
The examination was conducted in an OMR sheet supplied by CBSE to the exam centres. The evaluation of the answer sheets will be done as per the instructions provided by the CBSE.
“Evaluation will take time as the policy was recently changed and covid-19 challenges continue to pose a problem for evaluators,” UK Jha, chairman of Indore Sahodaya Complex of CBSE schools, said.
He added that students should not hold up their time and energy awaiting Term 1 results right now. “Based on our initial judgement, students have not performed as per their original mark, so it is more important that students focus on studying for Term 2, as the examination will be conducted offline as per last announcements,” Jha said.
Format change
This year the format has changed and the result for Term 1 would only be a scorecard detailing how many marks the student has received.
There is no grading and the formats have to be revised accordingly. This requires technical intervention and is likely to take a few more days to compile.
