As per new schedule released, now UP board class 12th practical exam will be held on January 29 and 30, 2026. Earlier, these dates were changed to avoid clash with Uttar Pradesh Teacher Eligibility Test 2026, which was previously scheduled to be held on these dates.
Now, UP TET has also been postponed, hence the board has added these dates back. The UP Board Class 10 and Class 12 theory exams will take place from February 18 to March 12, 2026. Like every year, this time too, it is expected that around 50 lakh students may appear for UP Board exams 2026.Â
