Assam Class 10 and 12 Evaluation Criteria Published

The Assam State Board has published the class 10 and 12 evaluation criteria framework today, 1 July 2021. The board will release the results compiled using the following criteria framework to qualify students for further education. The Assam state board cancelled the class 10 and 12 board exams due to the resurgence of COVID-19 within the state. The cancellation occurred soon after the CBSE board cancelled the CBSE class 12 board exam on 1 June 2021. Due to the cancellation of exams, the board formed two committees to suggest an alternative evaluation framework for results. Last week, the officials in charge of the criteria framework submitted their reports for evaluation.

Earlier in the day, Assam Education Minister Ranoj Pengu gave a statement regarding the evaluation criteria. As quoted, “The evaluation formula for SEBA AHSEC’s HSLC-HSSLC will be officially announced in the evening today via official notification…” Additionally, the board will publish the final board results for classes 10 and 12 by 31 July 2021.
