Reportedly the sudden announcement by the government of tamil Nadu to conduct board exams for Class 10 state board students from june 1 has raised eyebrows of stakeholders, who call it ‘a hurried decision’.
Tamil Nadu’s school education minister announced that the state board exams for students studying Class 10 will be held from june 1 to june 12. These exams were originally scheduled between march 27 and april 13. However, after the government of tamil Nadu ordered all the educational institutions to shut down as a precautionary measure to prevent the spread of the novel coronavirus, the class 10 exams were postponed without specifying a date.
In this case, now the exam has been postponed to june 15th due to pressure from the opposition parties and also from educational institutions and parents. Educational minister Sengottayan has confirmed they have taken this decision with respect to the Corona pandemic situation.
