Class 12 Board Exams Will Be Held, Time Table Soon: Andhra Pradesh Government To Supreme Court

AP Inter exams 2021: There is no “reliable alternative” to access Inter or Class 12 students, the Board of Intermediate Education Andhra Pradesh (BIEAP) said in its affidavit.

Andhra Pradesh Intermediate second year or Class 12 final exams will be held in physical mode, the state government has informed the Supreme Court of India. The exams are likely to take place in the last week of July, 2021 and the timetable will be announced 15 days in advance, it said. There is no “reliable alternative” to assess Inter or Class 12 students, the Board of Intermediate Education Andhra Pradesh (BIEAP) said in its affidavit. In Andhra Pradesh, SSC or Class 10 students are awarded grades instead of marks, and there is no visibility on the internal exams conducted by schools. Therefore, results using internal assessment may not be accurate, the board said. “Experts have been consulted and they are of the view that it will be feasible to hold the examinations,” it added. The state government in its affidavit said that the Corona cases are declining in the state and mentioned precautions it will be taking up while conducting the exams.
