Board of Secondary Education Assam (SEBA) has decided to postpone the compartment examination 2020 due to COVID-19 pandemic. As many as 20,000 students were all set to take the compartment exam after being unable to clear the March 2020 exam. However, now, the students will be going to miss one academic year due to COVID-19 pandemic.
Assam Board Scrap Compartment Exams
To this situation, SEBA chairman RC Jain told media that they have been unable to find a solution for conducting the compartment examination for the students. Due to the ongoing pandemic, it is difficult for the board officials to hold the compartment exams, hence, the it has been instructed to take readmission in class 10th and 12th. Furthermore, the insiders are upset over the fact that the Board and Govt cannot come up with a good plan to conduct the exam and save student’s academic year.
SEBA is mulling the idea on whether the compartment exam can be conducted along with the Class 10th state board exams next year. This can lessen the burden of the students who were eligible to appear in the exam soon after the declaration of the Class 10 state board exam results. The board do not want to risk the lives of the examinees by scheduling the compartment exams, nor it wants to disrupt the government’s plans to reopen the schools after a gap after more than six months.
Moreover, the SEBA chairman also confirmed that there is no provision of compartment exams for students, who failed the Class 12 state board exam conducted by the Assam Higher Secondary Education Council, either.
CBSE Geared to conduct 10th & 12th Compartment Exam Despite COVID-19 Threat
On the other hand, CBSE is all set to conduct the class 10th and 12th compartment examination 2020 from September 22, 2020, onwards. Keeping the safety of the students as their high priority, CBSE has increased the number of test centres to ensure distancing among students due to COVID-19 threat. The examination will be conducted by maintaining COVID protocols and social distancing in the examination halls. The number of test centres in Guwahati has been increased from 30 to 60 to prevent overcrowding at the exam centre.
