Class X boards only exam answered by present batch of Class XII

The Board has said that the Class XII evaluations carried out by schools in 2021-22 for unit tests, mid term exam, preliminary exam, etc, were mostly through the online mode.
Therefore, as these scores alone may not be reliable, Class X and XI components are being given weightage.
“These examinations were not in similar settings for all, and (there were) variations in access to digital infrastructure.
These examinations were not conducted by the board and will not meet the goal of standardised assessment, and may also reflect subjectivity inherent in school-based assessment,” the Board said.
Therefore, to address these issues, school-based assessment at Class XII need to be supplemented by standardised examinations conducted prior to the Covid-19 pandemic situation, the Board’s policy states.

“The additional information of the performance of the same student to obtain more accurate results will result in impartial, fair, accuracy and holistic assessment of students.
The Class X board was the only Board examination answered by the current batch of Class XII students for actual year-end assessment, when conditions were normal and the examinations were conducted in a regular standardised manner without any deviation from the scheme announced by the board at the start of the academic session,” the Board policy reads.
Therefore, the performance at the Class X Board examinations held for the current batch of Class XII students are being given weightage as a measure of the students’ ability, Goa Board has stated.
“Since the students did not know at the time of taking their Class X Board examination that those marks would count towards the all-important Class XII results, some of the shortcomings can be overcome by using the scores obtained in theory (external component) exams, the average of the best three subjects out of the main six to seven subjects, for the purpose of calculating the marks, to give weightage to the students by omitting the scores of the subjects in which they underperformed due to some reasons,” the Board said.
Also, the current batch of Class XII has appeared in Class XI examinations conducted in the year 2019-20 in an offline mode in their schools till the time the lockdown was declared in March 2020.
The examinations were conducted in a regular manner without any deviation from the scheme decided by the Board well in advance at the start of the academic session.
Therefore, the Class XI marks are being considered and given 30% weightage.
“Unlike Class X, the Class XI examination is based on the higher secondary syllabus and gives a good indication of students’ ability.
The examinations were conducted for full duration in examination halls.
As a result, it has high reliability in terms of fair assessment of students performance,” the Board said.
