CBSE announces marking policy for cancelled Class 10 board exams 2021. Check details here

Students will be assessed out of a maximum of 100 marks for each subject.

As per the board’s policy, 20 marks are reserved for internal assessments and the remaining 80 marks are for year-end CBSE board exams.

While internal assessments have been done by most schools and uploaded on the CBSE portal as per existing policy, the assessment of the remaining 80 marks will also have to done by the respective schools this time, as 2021 board exams stand cancelled.

For final results, each school will have to constitute a Result Committee that will consist of the Principal and seven teachers – five from Mathematics, Social Science, Science, and two languages, along with two teachers from neighbouring schools.

For the remaining 80 marks, students will be assessed by the Result Committee based on their performance in various tests conducted by the school throughout the year.

Weightage to each exam will be given as follows: Pre-boards (40 marks), unit tests (10 marks), and half-yearly/ mid-terms (30 marks). If a school has conducted more than one exam in each category, the Result Committee may fix the weightage to be given to each test within the category, subject to overall maximum marks for that category.

The marks will have to be in consonance with the past performance of the school in Class 10th boards.
