NEW DELHI: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) on Friday issued the academic curriculum for classes 9, 10, 11, and 12 for the academic year 2022-23 and it decided to revert to one board exam pattern for classes 10 and 12.
Students and teachers are advised to visit the official website of the CBSE at cbseacademic.nic.in to download the curriculum.
From what is evident in the syllabus, the two term system has been discontinued, because the curriculum is not divided into two parts.
CBSE officials had earlier this month confirmed the board will go back to the once a year final exam system from the next academic year.
“The board decided to conduct two term exams for the session 2021-22 in order to avert any unprecedented situation caused by the pandemic. Even as the NEP 2020 favours two-term exams, it has been decided to switch to the previous practice for now and conduct one set of board exams at the end of the academic year. The stakeholders also suggested one exam policy ,” a senior CBSE official said.
The CBSE had earlier divided the syllabus into two during the Covid pandemic. CBSE term 1 exam 2022 was conducted in November-December,2021 and term 2 exams are scheduled for April-May, 2022.
In 2021, CBSE had to follow an alternative assessment scheme as exams were cancelled amid the second wave of Covid-19.
