SC flags ‘frustration’ of students in CBSE’s digital marking system

Published by Parlour News

Expressing concern over students’ “frustration” in CBSE’s digital marking system, the Supreme Court on Wednesday sought the assistance of Solicitor General Tushar Mehta in hearing a PIL which sought directions to the Centre and the CBSE to frame regulations to conduct exams through on-screen marking (OSM) system. Supreme Court has sought the assistance of Solicitor General Tushar Mehta in addressing students’ complains with CBSE’s on-screen marking system (OSM) (Representational/PTI) The CBSE’s OSM evaluation system is a digital grading method where teachers assess scanned copies of physical answer sheets on a computer instead of checking physical paper scripts. “Look at the amount of frustration of young children,” a bench headed by Chief Justice of India Surya Kant said and sought the assistance of the solicitor general in dealing with the case.

CBSE: Students must pass third-language school assessment to get Class 10 certificate from 2027-28 | Education News

Published by Parlour News

3 min readNew DelhiJul 14, 2026 01:01 PM IST The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has clarified that while the third language (R3) will not be part of the Class 10 Board examination for students entering the class in 2027-28, clearing the school-based assessment in the subject will be compulsory for receiving the pass certificate. In a circular dated July 10, the Board said students “must clear the school-based R3 assessment” in Class 10. Those who fail the internal assessment will have to undergo a reassessment by their schools before the Board announces the final results. CBSE reiterated that students who fail the school-based R3 assessment in Class 9 will not be detained. They will be promoted to Class 10 in the 2027-28 academic year but must clear the pending Class 9 R3 assessment while studying in Class 10. The clarification comes days after CBSE’s June 29 circular operationalising the three-language formula under the National Education Policy (NEP). Under the revised scheme, students from Class 6 onwards are required to study three languages, of …

CBSE clarifies third-language assessment for Classes 9, 10: ‘No Board examination for…’

Published by Parlour News

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) recently released the R3 Language Assessment Framework. According to the board, the third language, referred to as R3, will be assessed only through internal school-based exams of Class 9 and 10, eliminating the need for the R3 CBSE board exam. The revised policy will apply to Class 9 students in the current academic session — 2026-27 — and to Class 10 in 2027-28. What happens if students don’t clear R3 in Class 9? Students who don’t clear the R3 internal exam in Class 9 will still be promoted to Class 10, but must clear it while in Class 10 to receive the Secondary School Examination pass certificate. In a circular dated July 10, the board clarified that students who fail to qualify for the Class 10 third-language internal assessment will be offered another opportunity. Their third-language reassessment will be conducted before the final board results are announced. Even though no board examination will be held, students must pass the internal assessment to pass Class 10. CBSE’s circular states, …

CBSE revaluation: Two Faridabad students claim they lost marks in subjects they never sought for review

CBSE revaluation: Two Faridabad students claim they lost marks in subjects they never sought for review

Published by Parlour News

Two Class XII students who approached the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) hoping to recover lost marks through re-evaluation have instead found themselves grappling with an unexpected setback, according to a report by the Times of India. While their scores improved in the subjects they had sought review for, marks in unrelated subjects were simultaneously reduced, pushing their overall result status from ‘pass’ to ‘repeat in theory’ (RT). Both cases were reported from the same school in Faridabad and come amid ongoing complaints about CBSE’s new Online Scanned Marking (OSM) system, which has drawn scrutiny for evaluation discrepancies and unexplained mark revisions this year. What happened with two students As per the TOI report, one student had applied for re-evaluation only in chemistry and home science after Class XII results were declared on 13 May. The outcome initially seemed positive: chemistry marks rose from 42 (RT) to 52 (pass), and home science improved from 70 to 79. However, the revised marksheet showed the student’s mathematics score, a subject for which no re-evaluation had been …

NITI member backs CUET for university intake, says ‘MCQs test intelligence, not mugging up’ | Education News

2 min readNew DelhiJul 5, 2026 02:02 PM IST NITI Aayog member Gobardhan Das on Sunday backed the multiple-choice questions for entrance exams even for universities such as JNU, emphasising that the format is a fair test of their intelligence. The comments from Das, a renonwed academic, came amid criticism of Common University Entrance Test (CUET) since its rollout in 2022, with several teachers’ groups contending that the MCQ-based test has reduced the emphasis on analytical and descriptive skills. “Multiple-choice questions format for entrance exams is not ill-suited for universities such as Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) as universities need to test your intelligence, not (what you have mugged up)… if you cannot connect 2-3 things, you really cannot answer the questions.” “MCQ is always preferred (in university entrance examination), as in less time you can assess many aspects (of candidates),” he said, adding that the CUET is an innovative idea. Last month, a parliamentary committee flagged concerns over the CUET, saying its multiple-choice format may not suit humanities and social sciences, while calling for a …
