During a live webinar on December 10, 2020, Union education minister Ramesh Pokhriyal ‘Nishank’ had stated that the CBSE board exam 2021 dates will be announced much before the commencement of exam. The syllabus has been reduced by 30- percent and is available on their website: cbse.nic.in.
CBSE practical exam will be held at the school level. In case, schools are not able to conduct practicals due to the pandemic, alternative solutions will be made. If similar conditions continue, an extension of board exam dates will be considered.
