UP Board | Exam Schedule 2010 of High School

Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad Uttar Prasdesh has announced examination schedule 2010 for high school. To see the time table for examination click on the following button.

Students of class X taking board exams in March 2010 will not get to know their percentage. Their ‘marksheet’ will only bear grades from now on and not marks.

As per a presentation on Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) made at conference on schools at IIT Delhi on Monday, the CBSE will switch to the grading system for class X from this session itself. For the last time, board exams for class X will be held in March 2010. From next academic session, CCE will be implemented in all CBSE schools, doing away with the exams.

According to the CBSE, marks obtained by students will not be disclosed unless there is a special case. ‘‘Revealing the marks will defeat purpose of introducing grades. However, we may make an exception if a student is shifting abroad or on a recommendation of the principal,’’ said a senior CBSE official.

Class X students will be graded on a nine-point system starting from A1 to E2. Their admission in class XI will also be based on grades. Those who do not get a qualifying certificate from the board due to an E1 or E2 grade will be given five attempts to improve their performance.

According to the CBSE official, the ministry of human resource development (MHRD) may also direct other boards to accept grades or the CCE card (to be given from the next session) if a student switches from a CBSE school to another school in class XI. ‘‘There was a meeting between the officials of the MHRD and Council of Boards of School Education last week to discuss this issue,’’ the official said.

Though there will be no change in the exam pattern for the existing batch of class X, teaching method and evaluation for class IX have already seen a change. CCE started in class IX from October this year and instead of exams, the students would just have a ‘summative assessment’ at the end of the current session. The official added pattern of the question paper to be provided by the board for ‘summative assessment’ would be different this year.

‘‘Till now, the pattern of class IX paper used to be same as that of class X. But we will have around 15% multiple-choice questions in the class IX paper from 2010,’’ the official said. He also added that unlike before, there will not be two different papers for science theory and practical skills. ‘‘Only one paper will be held for science in class IX,’’ he said.

CCE is a hot topic at the three day conference at IIT Delhi as teachers from all over the country got a chance to clear their doubts. The conference will last till December 30 with education experts, principals and teachers presenting papers on issues related to schools.

AIEEE to Get Revamped

The All India Engineering Entrance Examinations (AIEEE) get students admission into the top National Institutes of Technology (NITs). Now a committee consisting of three NIT Directors has been created to look into the way the exam is conducted and at the possibility of making the AIEEE test an online one in addition to the regular pen and paper test being conducted by the CBSE at the moment.

The committee will submit its report in January 2010. Some of the points under consideration are — the structure of the present exam and the question of whether weightage could be given to the Class XII results. Most directors were of the view that the proliferation of coaching institutes was skewing the pattern of entrants into the NITs. Another factor to be looked at was the number of vacant seats. The committee would also consider whether the courses were market-friendly or not and could suggest alternate programmes.

A decision to constitute another committee to look into the curriculum was also mooted. This would comprise the directors of the NITs of Trichy, Surathkal and Warangal who would probably assess the present curriculum vis-à-vis the current needs of the industry and redesign it with an eye on the future needs of the country. On the cards is also an interaction with industry organisations to know their requirements so that students have the best possible job prospects.

HRD Minister Kapil Sibal also asked all the 20 NITs to give a vision statement which could also include whether they would like to set up campuses abroad.
