Supreme Court on CBSE Policy: The Supreme Court earlier in the day struck down the Clause 28 of Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) policy. Notably, the clause stated that marks secured in the improvement exams would be considered as the final score of the assessment for Class 12 students for the previous academic year.

The SC bench said that the students are seeking a retention of their original marks as retention of the improvement marks may cause problems while seeking admission for higher education. The court also stated that the students should have an option to choose between the “better of the two marks” attained by them during the examinations.

The Counsel for CBSE countered the argument by saying it has made a partial revision to the policy which allowed students who got ‘Fail’ in improvement exam to retain their ‘Pass’ result which they got as per the Standard Formula.

Earlier, the Supreme Court had already asked the CBSE to reconsider its policy of treating marks secured in the improvement exams of Class 12 over the marks secured as per the standard formula in December, 2021.
