Explaining the whole assessment plan in detail, CBSE said that about 40 per cent of the marks will be based on Class 12 pre-board exams, 30 per cent on Class 11 final exam and 30 per cent marks will be based on best-of-three Class 10 marks.
This statement has been made to the bench of Justices AM Khanwilkar and Dinesh Maheshwari.
Practicals will be included in the 100 marks criteria. On the basis of marks submitted by schools, students will be assessed accordingly. A 12-member committee constituted by CBSE told the court.
Venugopal told the court that in case a student doesn’t meet the qualifying criteria- now spread across three years of study – they will be placed in the essential repeat or compartment category. Students who are not satisfied can appear again when the CBSE conducts Class 12 board exams.
The Supreme Court nodded on the central education board’s plan.
Highlighting the importance of correction of final results, during the hearing, the bench said there should be a dispute resolution panel for students who want correction of final results. Apart from this, timelines should be alloted when the results would be declared and the optional exams would be conducted.
Venugopal agreed to do the same and noted down the suggestions and consider them seriously.
The hearing was adjourned till next date that is Monday, June 21.
The Supreme Court gave CBSE and CISCE two weeks to come about with objective criteria to mark Class 12 students, who need these results for college and competitive exams.
