JAC 10th, 12th exams scheduled from March 9 will be deferred. An official announcement is expected soon. Read to know more.

The Jharkhand Board is likely to defer the examinations dates for JAC Class 10 and JAC Class 12. The state education department on Tuesday said that it would reconsider the JAC 10th, 12th examination dates, which are scheduled from March 9 to 26, 2021. Senior officials said that decision in this regard is made and an official announcement will follow soon. They also highlighted that several factors were taken into account for this decision.

The JAC 10th Syllabus as well as JAC 12th Syllabus has already been reduced by 40%. The Jharkhand Education Department will be considering if the two months time provided to students to complete the prescribed syllabus for the academic year is sufficient or not.

Director of the secondary education Jata Shankar Choudhary said, β€œWe will also take into consideration the examination schedules announced by various boards in neighbouring states in this regard.” 

Arvind Singh, the chairperson of JAC stated that the lockdown imposed to restrict COVID-19 spread has affected students' studies, becoming one of the factors for the postponement of the board examinations. But, JAC doesn’t want to further delay the commencement of board examination as it will affect the announcement of JAC Result 2021. But, it is also being noted that conducting examination, evaluation and announcement of results will take more time under COVID 19 conditions compared to the normal conditions.

Meanwhile, schools were reopened and classroom education had begun for classes 10 and 12 during December-end.
