JKBOSE Out of Syllabus Grace Marks in Class 10 & 11 Exams

JKBOSE Out of Syllabus Grace Marks: In a significant move, the Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education (JKBOSE) has acknowledged the complaints of out-of-syllabus questions in the Class 10 and Class 11 annual examinations. Following an expert review, the JKBOSE Subject Expert Committee has recommended awarding grace marks to affected students.

Subject Expert Committee’s Findings

After widespread concerns from students about incorrectly included questions, JKBOSE formed a panel of subject experts to assess the issue. Following consultations with experts from Kashmir and Jammu divisions, it was confirmed that some questions in multiple subjects were either from deleted syllabus portions or incorrectly framed.

A top JKBOSE official revealed that:

  • Class 10 students faced issues in Social Studies and Urdu papers.
  • Class 11 students (both hard and soft zones) encountered out-of-syllabus questions in Mathematics.
  • Some Social Studies questions were wrongly placed in the Class 10 paper.
  • In Class 11 Mathematics, questions worth 16 marks were from the deleted syllabus.

Grace Marks Recommended for Affected Subjects

Based on the expert panel’s report, JKBOSE has decided to award grace marks in the following subjects:

Class Subjects Affected Remarks
Class 10 English, Urdu, Social Studies Some questions were out of syllabus or incorrectly included.
Class 11 Mathematics Questions worth 16 marks were from the deleted syllabus.

The grace marks will be “genuine and fair”, ensuring that students do not suffer due to these errors.

Action Against Paper Setters

JKBOSE has also decided to penalize the responsible paper setters for their mistakes. Normally, paper setters who commit such errors are permanently debarred from setting future papers. However, considering the seriousness of this issue, the board is considering monetary penalties as a deterrent for future mistakes.

Official Statement from JKBOSE

A senior JKBOSE official assured students, stating:

“We will not let students suffer. The Subject Expert Committee has recommended awarding grace marks, and JKBOSE will implement this fairly. We will also take strict action against those responsible for these errors to prevent such incidents in the future.”
