JKBOSE Reschedules Annual Exams for Classes 10th, 11th, and 12th: New Dates Announced
In a recent development, the Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education (JKBOSE) has announced the rescheduling of annual regular examinations for various classes in both soft zone and hard zone areas. This decision comes in response to directives from the Joint Chief Electoral Officer of J&K (Jammu) regarding the Lok Sabha Election 2024 schedule, ensuring that there are no clashes between exam dates and election dates in the UT of J&K.
Rescheduled Exams:
1. Class 11th Exams in Soft Zone Areas: The annual regular exams for Class 11th in soft zone areas have been rescheduled to avoid any conflicts with the Lok Sabha Election 2024 schedule. Students in these areas can now prepare for their exams with updated dates.
2. Classes 10th, 11th, and 12th Exams in Hard Zone Areas: Similarly, the examinations for classes 10th, 11th, and 12th in hard zone areas have also been rescheduled to accommodate the election schedule. This decision aims to ensure smooth conduct of both the exams and the electoral process.
Reason for Rescheduling:
The rescheduling of exams was prompted by directives from the Joint Chief Electoral Officer of J&K (Jammu), highlighting the need to avoid clashes between exam dates and election dates. This decision was taken in response to concerns raised by various stakeholders, including students, regarding the potential impact of conflicting schedules.
Impact of National Testing Agency's Examinations:
Additionally, the JKBOSE took into consideration the schedule of the Joint Entrance Examination (Main) 2024, session-2, conducted by the National Testing Agency (NTA) from April 4th to 15th. The overlapping dates necessitated adjustments to ensure minimal disruption to students' academic pursuits.
New Examination Schedule:
The rescheduled examinations will now be conducted in two sessions, morning and evening shifts, to accommodate the revised dates. This ensures that students have ample opportunity to appear for their exams without any inconvenience.
The rescheduling of annual exams by the JKBOSE demonstrates a proactive approach towards addressing the concerns of students and ensuring the smooth conduct of examinations amidst external factors such as election schedules and national-level entrance exams. With the updated examination schedule in place, students can focus on their preparations with confidence, knowing that their academic interests are being prioritized. For further details and updates on the revised examination dates, students are advised to stay updated with notifications from the JKBOSE official channels.
