Coronavirus attack has split a large portion of India's education and turned upside down the life of students, teachers and parents.  Academic schedule for the classes especially challenging senior school students attempting board examination. A possible solution to reduce the burden of syllabus on students and teachers, Madhya Pradesh Board of Secondary Education (MPBSE) is working on a new blueprint in the new normal. As of now, MPBSE has announced the discontinuation of 21 vocational courses for the year.

Another major change that will affect commerce and arts students of classes 11th and 12th is the merging of economics subjects. As shared by educationists teaching MPBSE students, these changes would help teachers in simplifying teaching techniques and ensuring uniformity. "For students, the benefits might not be too apparent, but the reduction in syllabus would ease burden and ensure better teaching," Sunanda Yadav, an educationist, said. She explained that until now, economics taught to arts stream students is theoretical based and practical based for commerce stream students. "Merging of topics will reduce the burden on teachers giving them more time to work on teaching techniques and having a focused approach," Yadav said. Deven Sonwani, MPBSE divisional officer, said, "This merging and removal of vocational courses will ensure that examinations of class 10th and 12th will be conducted within 25 days instead of 35 to 40 days." Hence, 10 to 15 days will be added to the evaluation period ensuring that the session completes in time.

The principal of Excellence School Sudhakar Parashar explained that class 10th and 12th examination usually start from March 1 and lasts till the first week of April. "Further, evaluation begins from March and concludes in May third or fourth week," he said. Now, this year, as examinations are expected to complete in March, teachers would get more time to evaluate keeping up with the academic schedule.
