Tripura Board Exam 2021 Likely to Start From May 10, States State Edu Minister; Check Details


If the situation of the Covid-19 comes under control, the Tripura Board of Class 10 and 12 of the 2021 exams are expected to begin on 10 May, Minister of Education Ratan Lal Nath informed.

"Regular classes for Classes 10 and 12 started on 7 December and would continue until 30 March until the declaration of conduct of their pre-board examination. So far, we have decided to conduct the examinations of the Board from May 10 to June 9.

"If anything goes wrong, further decisions will be taken," Nath said after meeting with officials of the Education Department, the Tripura Board of Secondary Education (TBSE) and the governing body on Wednesday evening.

For the first time, there would be two sets of question papers for the board of examination, and the pass mark for each subject would be 33 instead of 30. School authorities need to send TBSE applicants to the board of directors between 17 and 25 January.

"We asked the schools to conduct the Class 10 and Class 12 pre-board examinations from 1 April to 20 April. The results of the examinations must be published by 30 April. The practical examinations must be completed between 15 and 30 March," he said.

Tabulated details of the marks secured by students in their pre-board, weekly and subject-related exams would be forwarded to the State Board by 8 May for inclusion in the final exam assessment. The final board examination marks would include 10 marks for the pre-board examination, 5 marks for the weekly tests and assignments.

In the case of 'bochhor bachao' or 'saving-a-year' schemes, if any student fails, they may either appear for compartmental examinations a year later, or may be taken back to Class 10 and Class 12.

The scheme was launched this year for students who had failed in two subjects but had an overall score of at least 150 marks.
