New Delhi: The Central Board of Secondary Education’s (CBSE) evaluation policy for this year’s Class X board examination did not have any grievance mechanism for students, an NGO told the Delhi High Court on Thursday.
The NGO, Justice For All, argued in the hearing before a bench of Justice DN Patel and Justice Jyoti Singh that CBSE should make an arrangement for uploading the soft copy of the marking scheme followed by schools, reported news agency PTI.
Appearing for the NGO, advocate Khagesh stressed that this year the schools were free to have their own marking policy.
According to the advocate, a student has no way to know how he/she was marked and thus like previous years, students should have access to the documents based on which evaluation is done.
“I have no marking scheme. I have no policy document or the evaluation sheet. Earlier there was a system and there was a process,” he submitted.
The advocate added that without any policy on record, a student would not even be able to move the high court for any grievance redressal. “I have no document to know that if I got 19 marks, was it human error or some arbitrary policy of school,” he stated.
