The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has issued a warning to students and affiliated institutions that if all courses are not accurately marked in the ‘List of Candidates’ form, the students would be unable to sit for the board exams in 2024.
CBSE alleged that in the past, schools and students were not “sincere and careful” in filling out the form.
“As LOC submission has started, so with this circular, all the schools are once again reminded the importance of correct submission of data in the LOC. Hence, Principals/Schools are directed to go through the LOC Notification No CBSE/LOC/2023-24/ dated 17/08/2023 meticulously before filling up of candidates’ information. Staff engaged for filling up of details should be made aware of all the guidelines which are laid down in the said circular to avoid mistakes. Parents may also be briefed about the importance of correct data and the consequences if wrong data is submitted. Subject correction after submission of LOC will not be entertained in any manner,” the Board said in the notice.
If students provide incorrect demographic information, they must change these characteristics after passing examinations and may encounter challenges with admissions, etc.
CBSE further stated that no window for correction will be made available afterwards, therefore schools must ensure that the data entered is valid. “Uploading correct data is the responsibility of the school concerned. Hence, make sure the data is correct before its submission to the Board,” CBSE added.
