CBSE allows schools to complete assessments in online mode

A week after the cancellation of the Class 12 board examinations, the Central Board of Secondary Education on Monday allowed schools to complete the pending practicals and internal assessments in the online mode. Several schools across India had said that they had been unable to conduct practical exams or internal assessment due to closure during the second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic. On Monday, the national board asked these schools to conduct the pending tests in “only online” mode and submit the marks to the board by June 28.

For the subjects requiring practicals, the external examiner will decide on the date for an online viva voce in consultation with the internal examiner. The board has asked schools to share the date of exams with students “well in advance” and share the link of the “online meeting” on the exam day.
