Exam management system for CBSE X-XII goes online

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has switched over to the online mode for pre and post examination management system for Classes X to XII.

Ahead of the upcoming board examinations, it has launched a new web portal e-CBSE where schools can generate roll numbers of students for main examination and make corrections in the candidates’ particulars, upload students photos using the existing user IDs and passwords.

Schools can also upload internal subject assessment grades of Class XII students online with 3 internal subjects each.

“Change of subject, however, is not allowed at this stage,” a CBSE official told Deccan Herald. Schools will receive examination related material, including admit cards, pertaining to about 25 lakh Class X and class XII students through the e-CBSE portal from this year.

“Apart from this being a time saver, it is also an environment friendly move. Uploading of data will reduce the use of paper,” the official said.

About 17,000 schools affiliated to the CBSE have already joined the new system and remaining schools are in the process of becoming a part of it. A total of 17,165 schools are affiliated with the board, both in India and abroad.
