CBSE to Hold Class 10 Board Exams Twice a Year, Practical Exams Annually

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has approved a new plan to conduct Class 10 board exams twice a year. This change aims to reduce student stress and provide more opportunities for better scores. However, the practical or internal exams will be held only once a year.

Class 10 Board Exams Twice a Year
CBSE has decided that from now on, students will get two chances to appear for the Class 10 board exams. If a student is unhappy with their first attempt, they can take the second one. The best score will be considered as the final result.

Practical and Internal Exams Once a Year
While students will have two chances for the written exams, the practical or internal assessments will be conducted only once a year. This rule ensures that students focus on their hands-on learning without extra pressure.

Why is CBSE Making This Change?
CBSE is introducing these changes to:

Reduce Exam Pressure – Students will not have to rely on a single exam for their final score.
Improve Performance – If students do not perform well in the first attempt, they get another chance.
Follow the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 – The NEP recommends a flexible exam system.

How Will This Benefit Students?
More chances to improve scores.
Less stress and anxiety.
Better preparation for competitive exams.
More flexibility in learning.
