No answer booklet in Accountancy
CBSE has retracted a change in Accountancy from this academic session. Students will not get printed formats of ledger and journals in their answer booklet.
"Since last two years, the board had changed the answer booklet for accountancy wherein 32 pages were divided with 16 pages of printed formats," PGT Accountancy Pradeep Varmecha said.
Out of the 16 printed formats, 8 were printed with ledger format and another 8 with journal pages. "Though this was meant to be convenient for students and mostly evaluators," Varmecha said.
However, the printed formats were hard to manage for students and resulted in confusion for evaluators. Hence, Accountancy answer booklet has been restored to normal.

No special or delayed exams for all students, just sportspersons
After receiving multiple requests, CBSE has decided that for students who are participating in national or international sports events or international Olympiads and might not appear for their CBSE Class 10 and Class 12 exams (February-April), the board will conduct special exams later.
“This decision is taken to promote sports and other educational competitions among the youth,” school principal Siddharth Singh said. He added that this is only for specific students and not all the students.
“Also, the sports must be recognised by the Sports Authority of India (SAI) and the Board of Cricket Control in India (BCCI) and the Olympiad recognised by the Homi Bhabha Center for Science Education (HBCSE),” Singh added.
