SA-II papers to be available from early March: CBSE

Posted On: 17/01/2014 Updated On:

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced that question papers for the school-based summative exam two (SA-II) will be available for download from a secured web link from March first week onwards. Students of Std X who have opted for the regular board exam won't be affected by any of these developments. The SA-II is basically the final exam for Std IX and X under CBSE's comprehensive and continuous evaluation (CCE) scheme. Schools have also been advised to ensure that date sheet for board and school-based SA-II are different. CBSE is in the process of putting more and more of its processes online so that everything gets expedited and secured. The portal called CBSE Integrated Test Management System (CBSE-ITMS) has a bank of over one lakh questions and generates two unique question paper sets for every subject. Question papers can be downloaded from March 3 and the SA-II can be conducted from March 10. CBSE will provide schools with the marking scheme from March 17. This year, the question papers can be downloaded only in MS-Word file which would ensure that schools can change data if required.

The CBSE-ITMS ensures every school in the country has a unique question paper and the online delivery mode means remote chance of paper leak. With these question paper sets ready, schools will have three options. First, they can choose any one of the sets and administer the SA-II. Second, they can mix and match questions from those two sets and create a new paper. The final option is for schools to prepare their own question paper adhering to the weightage pattern given by CBSE. In case schools create their own question paper, a copy has to be emailed to CBSE within a week of the exam for quality control and verification. Schools have been given the independence to design their own date sheet for school-based SA-II and hence the online delivery of question paper becomes vital. A circular issued by CBSE says it will support schools to generate online question papers in major subjects only. These are English communicative, English language & literature, Hindi Course A & B, mathematics, science, social science and communicative Sanskrit.
