So many CBSE 2025 students can breathe a sigh of relief for these results…
After lots of nervous waiting from students across the UAE, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced the results for the 2025 Class 12 board exams on Tuesday, May 13.
The results were revealed and a total of 88.39 per cent of students passed the board exams. 0.41 per cent more students passed since last year. However the girls have come out on top with 91 per cent of them passing the exams, outshining the boys by over 5.94 per cent points as 85.12 per cent of boys passed the exams.
The result of Class 10 board exams will also be announced soon so we'll have to wait a little bit longer for those. Each year there is no definite date for release of results so students must wait patiently until the awards are announced.
Students can check their results on the official CBSE websites.
To access CBSE Results 2025, examinees will need to log in using their roll number, admit card ID, school code, and date of birth. According to reports there are over 80 CBSE-affiliated schools in the UAE. Dubai private schools, specifically the for-profit private schools in the emirate, could see an increase in fees next year as the Knowledge and Human Development Authority (KHDA) has approved an Education Cost Index of 2.35 per cent for the next academic year 2025-2026, Gulf Business has reported.
Congratulations to all…

UAE: Why school principals say CBSE's biannual board exam is student-friendly
Indian school principals in the UAE have welcomed the Central Board of Secondary Education's (CBSE) decision to introduce biannual Class 10 board exams starting 2026, calling it a ' student-friendly reform ' aimed at easing exam-related stress. As per the revised guidelines, the first phase of the board exam will be held in February and will be mandatory for all students, while the second phase in May will be optional. In a significant relief for students, the best score from either attempt will be retained for the final result — offering them a better chance at academic success without the pressure of a single high-stakes exam. The decision represents a significant transformation in India's education system, aligning with the key goals of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which prioritises student-focused learning and aims to ease exam-related pressure. Lalitha Suresh, Principal/CEO, GEMS Our Own Indian School said, 'There will not be many changes from the present structure of examinations. In the new model, the first round of examinations will be finished sooner, and results will be declared earlier. Only those students who wish to improve their results will have to appear for the second round of examinations. These students will be impacted, as they will miss some days of the new academic year. Students who have not qualified in the main examination will be allowed provisional admission into Class 11, with their admission then confirmed based on their results in the second examination.' 'This is a positive move from CBSE, aimed at reducing examination stress among students. I am sure pupils will benefit from this new scheme,' he added. Principals also clarified that marks from this single internal assessment will apply to both attempts. While the first set of exams in February will be mandatory for all and the second exam in to be held in May is optional, it is worth noting, that students will be allowed to improve performance in a maximum of three subjects only. Challenges Shedding light on the implications of this decision on schools and teachers, Dr S. Reshma, Principal / School Director, Gulf Indian High School Dubai, said, 'Academic calendar adjustment will be necessary where schools must realign annual plans to prepare students for an earlier February exam. Summer exam attempt will add an additional planning cycle post-results. Teachers will experience increased workload as they will be required to prepare revision plans again, conduct internal assessments earlier, and support both exam cycles. Administrative coordination for exam logistics, invigilation, and result analysis will intensify. Deploying staff and scheduling during both exam phases has to be more careful in allocation.' School leaders also emphasised that extended academic support and remedial classes may be required post-February for May aspirants. Echoing similar challenges, Deepika Thapar Singh, Principal, Credence High School, said, 'The changes to the CBSE Class 10 board exams from 2026 bring several significant implications for schools and teachers, especially in terms of scheduling, workload, pedagogy, and internal assessments. More intense planning will be needed to balance academic coverage with deep learning. Teachers must prepare students for two board exam windows, including identifying and mentoring students for improvement attempts. Teachers will analyse first-attempt performance and help students select subjects to retake in May.'

US Senate permits arms sales to Qatar, UAE amidst controversy over jet gifted to Trump
Arms sales to Qatar and the United Arab Emirates have been given the go-ahead after a Democratic Party-led effort to halt them failed in a US Senate vote on Wednesday. The resolutions failed 39-56, allowing the deal to proceed. Democrats had introduced legislation in the Republican-controlled Senate to block weapons sales to the two Gulf states over allegations of corruption. Lawmakers alleged that the Pentagon's acceptance of a $400m Qatari jet and an Emirati firm's recent investment in a Trump-affiliated cryptocurrency had compromised the integrity of the sales. The resolutions sought to stymie a $1.9bn weapons sale to Qatar and a $1.3bn weapons sale to the UAE. New MEE newsletter: Jerusalem Dispatch Sign up to get the latest insights and analysis on Israel-Palestine, alongside Turkey Unpacked and other MEE newsletters The Qatar sale consisted of eight MQ-9 Reaper drones, a model previously employed by the US in Gaza and Yemen, along with Hellfire II missiles and 227-kg bombs. The second resolution opposed the sale of six Chinook helicopters to the UAE. Arms sales to the UAE have previously faced criticism over the UAE's support for the Rapid Support Forces, a Sudanese faction accused by some, including the US State Department, of committing acts of genocide. Corruption accusations Democrats say the weapons sales are tainted with corruption. Qatar recently gifted the Pentagon a $400m jet, which will be refurbished to serve as Air Force One before being retired to US President Donald Trump's presidential library. The jet had become the centre of political controversy after Democrats likened the gift to a bribe. How Turkey and Qatar are playing an outsized role in Trump's new Middle East Read More » Additionally, last month, an Emirati firm invested $2bn in a Trump-affiliated cryptocurrency. Democratic Senator Chris Murphy, who backed the resolution opposing the arms sales, alleged that these deals compromised the integrity of the sales. 'My case is that so long as the relationship is corrupted by the gifts to Trump, we can't move forward on these arms sales… there are legitimate underlying policy debates on the two sales, but my case here is you should look beyond the merits of the sale and really focus on the corruption,' Murphy stated earlier this week. The resolutions to block the arms sales failed, however, with five Democrats joining Republicans to support the sales. Senate Republicans dismissed the resolutions as political theatre, with Senate Foreign Relations Committee chair Jim Risch saying they 'make arms sales to some of our closest allies in the Middle East about partisan politics'. Republican Senator Rand Paul voted "present" on the resolutions.
