In the letter, Karwal said that the exams are “true reflection of changing mind-sets of parents in the 21st century.” Adding that limitations of a parent’s mind should not limit a student, the chairperson wrote, “Your friend’s child may be good at mathematics and want to become an engineer, but your child may be good at theatre and may want to become a filmmaker. The number of possible careers is unlimited.”

The letter further enlists rules every parent should follow to help their child put their best in the upcoming board exams. Here is the list:

Exam centre: Check the location of exam centre at least a day prior. CBSE offers ‘exam center locator app’ for androids to ensure correct directions for the exam center.

Power dressing: Students need to wear their school uniform and ensure they carry school id card and CBSE board admit card

Timing: Ensure that your child reaches the exam centre by 9:45 am as entry gates will be closed by 10 am. Students will also have to go through frisking.

Banned items: Make doubly sure that your child is not carrying mobile, wallet, purse, etc to the examination center.

Follow rules: Alert your child to follow all instructions given by invigilators, especially those regarding the method of writing roll number in the answer book.

Warning: Make sure that your child does not indulge in any wrongdoings as then they have to face consequences like debarring them from appearing in other exams.
