CBSE class 10 board exams now mandatory with grades on discipline, attendance and values
There will be two mandatory language papers and an optional sixth subject.
Students will be allowed to pick a third language.
The students currently in Class 9 in CBSE affiliated schools will have to appear in the board exams next year. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced the Class 10 board examinations will be compulsory.
The board further specified that schemes I and II will stand as discontinued for students appearing for their class 10 board exams this year. According to a notification released by the CBSE, the nine-point grading will be similar to what is followed by the Class 12 boards.
The exams will be conducted for 80 marks per subject with an internal assessment total of 20 marks. In addition to this, schools will have to conduct three periodic written tests in each subject— in place of the four formative assessments. The average of the best two tests conducted through the year will be taken into account on final submission.
Students will also be evaluated on notebook submission and subject enrichment activities for internal assessment. The internals will additionally include marks on attendance, sincerity, behaviour, values and co-scholastic subjects like work education, art and health and physical education.
There will be two mandatory language papers and an optional sixth subject. Students will also be allowed to pick a third language.
The CBSE had previously decided to recommend that the three language formula— under which Hindi, English and a modern Indian language are taught— should be extended to class 9 and 10 as well from the current 6 to 8.
Practicals for the additional subjects will be conducted by the schools. A majority of the 18,000 institutions affiliated to the CBSE offer the mother tongue or Hindi, English and a foreign language such as German and Mandarin up to Class 8. All schools will have to implement the three-language formula and extend it up to Class 10.
