Petitioners not entitled to claim detailed Class 10 scorecard of all students of school: CBSE To SC

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has informed the Supreme Court that a detailed scorecard of the entire class cannot be provided to some Class 10 pass-out students who have alleged that an Odisha-based school denied it as it had to "conceal its malpractices" in awarding marks.

In an affidavit filed in the Supreme Court, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) said that a three-member enquiry committee had concluded in its August last year inquiry report that the school had prepared the result of class 10 students as per the tabulation policy.

The matter came up for hearing on Friday before a bench of Justices A M Khanwilkar and C T Ravikumar, which posted it for hearing after two weeks. The plea, filed by 24 students who have passed out class 10 from the school in Odisha, has sought a direction to the CBSE to review and declare their result afresh based on the board's evaluation policy of May 1, 2021, after collecting the correct record from the school.

The petition, filed through advocate Ravi Prakash, has urged the top court to direct an inquiry against the school "for illegally demanding money and putting undue pressure to take admission in class 11 in the same school to get good scores in Class 10".

In an affidavit, filed by the controller of examinations, the CBSE has said that the petitioners are not entitled to claim the attendance sheet of the entire Class 10 for each examination and each subject.

“I, therefore, submit that the petitioners are entitled to know their internal assessment marks, the highest average in the preceding three years and the marks assigned by the result committee to them, from their school but that does not mean that they can claim the attendance sheet, report of result committee and detailed scorecard of all the students of Class 10 of their school,” the controller of examinations has said in the affidavit.
