Nearly 3,000 schools affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) have been notified as evaluation centres, and will soon begin work on evaluating Class 10 and 12 board examinations which have been disrupted by the lockdown, Human Resource Development Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank said on Saturday.
In a memo issued on Saturday, the Union Home Ministry said that while all schools remained closed under the lockdown guidelines to prevent the spread of COVID-19, “special permission has been granted for the operation of 3,000 CBSE-affiliated schools selected as evaluation centres, for the limited purpose of work associated with the evaluation of answer sheets.” It said there was no restriction on the transport of answer sheets to the homes of evaluators unless they were located within a containment zone.
CBSE regional offices can also begin work in green and orange zones and function with limited restrictions in red zones, the Ministry memo said.
In total, 1.5 crore answer sheets in 173 subjects will be evaluated, said Mr. Nishank. Results will only be announced after the completion of the pending examinations in 29 subjects, which are to be held from July 1 to 15, he added.
