CBSE Boards have been kickstarted across the country. Amid the Class 10 and Class 12 exams, it has recently been reported that two officials of Arooja Little Star School at Thoppumpady area in Kochi have been arrested after Class 10 students could not write their Board exams on Monday since the institution allegedly lacked CBSE affiliation.
They said 29 class X students came to know only last week that they could not write the exam as their school was not affiliated to the Central Board of Secondary
Education.
The school officials allegedly did not inform the students and parents about the non-recognition.
This morning, the parents reached the school, hoping that some arrangements would have been made for their wards to write the exam, but were left disappointed.
Ernakulam District Collector S Suhas urged parents to check the background of educational institutions, particularly schools which claimed to be affiliated with CBSE, before enrolling their children in them.
