CBSE class 12 date sheet 2021 cbse.nic.in: Big declaration made today! Dates of this exam released now; know this important change

CBSE class 12 date sheet 2021 cbse.nic.in: Finally, students of class class 12 can relax a little as some progress has been made about conducting the yearly exams. The uncertainty surrounding the entire exercise of holding class 12 exams had a bad effect on students as they did not know what was going to happen and now they can afford to relax a little. in fact, many thought that CBSE exams 2021 would be cancelled, or even postponed. Yes, one CBSE class 12 date sheet has been released, ending all speculation, and this one pertains to the holding of practical exams only. The CBSE class 12 date sheet 2021 for practical examinations says that the same will be conducted from January 1, 2021 to February 8, 2021.

However, class 12 students must not consider this as the final date sheet. Most probably a revised one will be sent again. CBSE will therefore, be announcing the exact dates through another official notification to let everybody concerned know. While the tentative date sheet being sent by CBSE does not help much, at least it clears the fog surrounding the uncertainty surrounding the holding of CBSE exams.

The pace of announcement by CBSE has increased. Just yesterday board secretary Anurag Tripathi announced that class 10 and class 12 board exams will be conducted for sure, and just one day later, the board has actually released the date sheet. However, one important thing that CBSE has not announced is the date for the start of the examinations for main subjects.

While speaking during a webinar on "New Education Policy (NEP): Brighter future of school education" organised by ASSOCHAM, Tripathi had said. The board exams will happen for sure and a schedule will be announced very soon. The CBSE is making plans and will soon reveal how it will do test assessments." 

Tripathi also let it be known what a difficult situation it was for CBSE during the Coronavirus lockdown period. He said, "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.”

Speaking of Covid-19 pandemic, apart form the release of the practical exam date sheet, CBSE has also announced a standard operating procedutre that everyone must follow to ensure they stay safe and secure from this disease.
