In far-reaching reforms that will impact lakhs of students, government today announced abolition of compulsory CBSE Board exams for class X from next academic year (2010-11) and introduction of grading system from current year.
However, students wanting to opt for the Board exams in class X can do so under the "exam on demand".
Over eight lakh students appearing for their class X exams in March 2010 have to take Board exams whose results will be declared through grading system replacing the marks system.
From 2011, the grading system will continue but the Board exams will be conducted only on demand by a student, an option which will be available to all.
The Class X examinations of CBSE will be abolished from 2010-11 while the grading system will be introduced from 2009-10 (current academic year), Human Resources Development Minister Kapil Sibal told reporters here
