The CBSE exams for class 10 and 12 will take place for sure and a schedule is likely to be announced soon, board secretary Anurag    Tripathi said on Friday.

The CBSE is making plans and will soon reveal how it will do test assessments," he said during a webinar on "New Education Policy (NEP): Brighter future of school education" organized by ASSOCHAM. He, however, did not comment upon whether the exams will be conducted in the same format and will be held in February-March as per schedule or will be postponed. The comments by Tripathi come amid demands from various quarters for cancellation or postponement of board exams in view of rising COVID-19 cases.

"During March-April we were flummoxed as to how to move forward, but our schools and teachers rose to the occasion and transformed, trained themselves in using new technology for teaching purposes and within few months conducting online classes using different apps became normal," Tripathi said. There have been demands for postponement of board exams to May in view of the continued closure of schools and teaching-learning activities being completely online.

"We need to move students away from knowledge-based education to competency and skill-based learning. To implement skill-based, competency-based education there is a need to transform and follow the entire pedagogy-based teaching-learning process be it classroom teaching, face-to-face teaching or online teaching, he said.
