CBSE result 2020: All students who failed Class 9 and 11 exams will be given an opportunity to reappear for failed papers keeping in mind COVID-19 related stress, according to a statement released by the Central Board of Secondary Education or CBSE. The Board has also said that the schools providing this opportunity to students can conduct the examination online or offline or innovative tests, and may decide promotion on the basis of this test.

"CBSE, in view of the requests of the parents and student, as a one time measure in extraordinary situation, has decided that all the failed students of 9th and 11th will be provided an opportunity to appear in a school based test again," the statement said. 

"Opportunity will be extended to students irrespective of whether their examinations have been completed and the exam results have been released or their exams have not been completed. This facility is to be extended irrespective of number of subjects and attempts," it added.

This test, according the statement, can be taken in all subjects in which students have failed.

"Before holding the test, the schools will give sufficient time to the students to prepare. Therefore all schools affiliated to CBSE will provide an opportunity to all the failed students of classes 9 and 11 for all subjects where students have failed," it said while reiterating that this opportunity is a one-time measure in view of the unprecedented conditions prevailing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Earlier, CBSE had decided to promote Class 9 and 11 students on the basis of internal assessments of schools including projects, periodic tests, term exams, etc. conducted so far.

"It has come to our notice that though several schools affiliated to CBSE have completed their examination, evaluation and promotion process for students who were studying in grades 9 and 11 in the 2019-20 academic session, there are several schools that have not been able to do so," CBSE said in a statement on April 1.

This includes among others, Kendriaya Vidyalayas, Navodaya Vidyalayas, State/UT government schools, private schools, schools located in India and abroad, etc.

Meanwhile, during his address to teachers through a webinar today, HRD Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal 'Nishank' said that evaluation for CBSE answer sheets of Class 10 and Class 12 students will be completed in 50 days.

CBSE Instructs Schools to Complete Registrations for Class 9 & 11 till August 15

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has released a notification regarding the change in schedule for admission to classes 9 and 11 in all its affiliated schools. Board has asked all its schools to manage the admissions in class 9 and class 11 for current academic session, till August 15. However, beyond 15th, all cases of admission to these two classes will be managed by the board itself. In that case, schools will have to send all the details of such cases to the concerned Regional Office.

CBSE has notified that the schedule has been revised only for seven categories, which are:

• Shifting of family
• Shifting to hostel
• Shifting from Hostel
• Readmission in other schools after failing in these two classes
• Better education
• Long distance
• Medical ground

Check below the revised schedule for admission to CBSE Classes 9 and 11:

The board had earlier announced the changes in norms for admission to class 9 and class 11 in 2020. In order to regulate the admissions to these two classes, board has decided to take over the whole admission process.

Under the new set of laws, if a candidate wishes to take admission in a CBSE school in class 9 and 11, he/she will have to substantiate reasons behind the change. The board has formulated Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for admissions to these classes. However, principals and teachers are criticising this decision of board to interfere into the school’s admission policies. Many of them termed the new CBSE norm as unnecessary intervention.

Parents are also not in support of these new clauses for admission as they found them to be more complicated and unrealistic. For example, if a student wants to take admission in any of classes 9 and 11 in a CBSE- affiliated school citing better education facilities then his/her parents will be required to submit the application along with the last five years’ result stats of both the schools- one in which their ward is currently studying and the one in which they seek admission. Qualification and teaching experience of the staff members of both the schools will also have to be submitted at the same time.

Board officials marked that the new admission rules will be effective to streamline the process and make sure that only “genuine students” get admissions.

The changed rules, however, will be implemented from the academic year 2020-2021, whereas those seeking change in school can do so in the current year as per the present rules. 

CBSE will Regulate Admissions in class 9th & 11th from 2020

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has decided to regulate the whole process of admission to classes 9 and 11 in all its affiliated schools across the country from next year.

Board has formulated the Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) to standardise admissions in these classes which are currently conducted by schools on the basis of their own rules.

CBSE has informed all its schools to follow the guidelines mentioned in the SOPs, while conducting admissions to classes 9 and 11. A strict action will be taken against those found violating the board’s instructions.

General rules for accepting admissions to CBSE class 9 and 12

Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) have been formulated for admissions in these classes

For admission to these two classes, CBSE has defined 11 categories some of which are as below:

• Transfer of parents
• Shifting of family
• Shifting of hostel
• Re-admission in other school after failing in class 9 or class 12
• For better education
• Due to distance concerns
• Due to medical condition
• To change the education board

Board has also put some enhanced conditions under these categories. For example, if a student wants to take admission in any of classes 9 and 11 in another school affiliated to CBSE for better education facilities then his/her parents will be required to submit the application along with the last five years’ result stats of both the schools, one in which their ward is currently studying and the one in which they seek admission. Qualification and teaching experience of the staff members of both the schools will also have to be submitted at the same time.

Reaction of educators and teachers on CBSE’s admission clauses

Most of the teachers and principals have come with a complete criticism for board’s idea of regulating school admissions. They have a view that no education board should intervene in the admission policy.

In addition to this, they criticised the concept of evaluating the quality of teachers of a school through its results. A principle of a CBSE school said, “Results cannot represent or measure the learning outcomes of students or schools.”

Why did CBSE decide to regulate the admissions to classes 9 and 11?

According to Sanyam Bhardwaj, CBSE’s controller examinations, this whole idea of regulating the school admission by SOPs was taken to streamline the process so that only genuine candidates get admission. This will ultimately improve the standards of education and help achieve better results in board examinations.
