Amid the wait for Term- 1 Results for this year, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has told the Supreme Court that a detailed scorecard of the entire class cannot be provided to some class 10 pass-out students in an Odisha based school case.
The CBSE, in an affidavit filed in the apex court, said that a three-member enquiry committee had concluded in its August last year report that the school had prepared the result of class 10 students as per the tabulation policy.
A bench of Justices AM Khanwilkar and CT Ravikumar heard the matter after two weeks.
A group of students has alleged that an Odisha-based school denied detailed scorecard as it had to “conceal its malpractices” in awarding marks.
The plea, filed by 24 students who have passed out class 10 from the school in Odisha, has sought a direction to the CBSE to review and declare their result afresh based on the board’s evaluation policy of May 1, 2021, after collecting the correct record from the school.
The petition, filed through advocate Ravi Prakash, has urged the top court to direct an inquiry against the school “for illegally demanding money and putting undue pressure to take admission in class 11 in the same school to get good scores in class 12”.
