The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education announced that the 10th board examinations will now be conducted twice a year, replacing the previous single annual schedule and scrapping the supplementary examination option.
The Rajasthan Board of Secondary Education (RBSE) has introduced a significant change in the scheduling of the 10th grade board examinations. Starting this academic year, the exams will be held twice, once in the first half of the year and again in the second half, replacing the traditional single annual schedule.
In a move aimed at reducing student stress and providing more flexibility, the board has also abolished the supplementary examination system that previously allowed students to retake exams for a better result. The decision was announced during a press conference by the board’s chief, who highlighted that the new format would streamline the examination process and improve overall academic outcomes.
Students and parents across Rajasthan are expected to adapt to the new timetable, with schools preparing to conduct two separate examination sessions. The board has assured that all necessary resources and logistical support will be made available to ensure a smooth transition.
This change aligns with broader educational reforms in the state, which seek to modernize assessment practices and reduce the burden on learners. The board has urged schools to update their schedules accordingly and to inform students about the new examination dates as soon as possible.
