New Delhi: To create a stress-free learning environment, Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan announced that the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will conduct Class 10 Board Examinations twice a year from 2026.
Speaking at an Education Conclave recently, the Minister said: “This move aims to mitigate exam-related stress among students and is a key step towards implementing the National Education Policy (NEP). By allowing students to appear for exams twice, similar to the JEE Main format, they will have the flexibility to choose the better score. The feedback I’ve received indicates students are happy with the decision to hold board exams twice a year.”
