UP Board exams to feature competency-based, creative questions
Major changes are coming to the UP Board's High School and Intermediate exam pattern, with question papers set to include more evaluative and creative components aimed at assessing student competencies. Discussions underway on the concluding day of the five-day workshop (HT Photo) As part of this shift, the UP Board will train all school teachers in designing question papers that move beyond rote learning, focusing instead on critical thinking, creativity, and holistic development. The changes were discussed and outlined during a five-day workshop jointly organised by the Uttar Pradesh Board and NCERT at the Govind Ballabh Pant Social Science Institute in Jhunsi, which concluded on Friday. The workshop focused on a standardised question paper template and the Holistic Progress Card (HPC), aligning with the objectives of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and the national 'Equivalence of Boards' initiative. To support this transition, the UP Board plans to provide comprehensive training to all school teachers in designing balanced and competency-driven question papers, in addition to relying on board-appointed experts. Although teachers currently design internal exam papers, many lack formal training in this area. The new initiative aims to make student assessments—both internal and board-level—more effective and aligned with national educational goals. During the workshop's closing session, participants developed blueprint formats and model question papers, focusing on the HPC and the new Question Paper Template (QPT). Professor Indrani Bhaduri, CEO of PARAKH (Performance, Assessment, Review and Analysis of Knowledge for Holistic Development), explained that the HPC has been developed to facilitate a 360-degree assessment of each student. This includes teacher assessments, student self-assessments, and peer evaluations. She emphasised the need for standardised question papers, noting that India has 66 different education boards, and harmonising assessment criteria is essential for equity and quality. UP Board secretary Bhagwati Singh highlighted that the HPC aims to evaluate students holistically—encompassing academic performance, co-curricular activities, and attributes of responsible citizenship. He added that these reforms are aligned with the goals of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 and will help create parity across various school boards in India. Skand Shukla, the nodal officer for HPC, stated that the workshop saw participation from expert teachers of UP Board schools and subject specialists from SCERT institutions such as ELTI, State Institute of Science, State Institute of Education, and State Institute of Hindi, as well as resource persons from NCERT-PARAKH. 'The goal is to design question papers that better tap into students' cognitive and creative abilities,' said Shukla. 'Since internal assessments prepare students for Board exams, large-scale training programmes will be launched to equip teachers with the skills needed to develop effective and balanced question papers.' He added that this was the first of several planned workshops. With nearly 29,000 secondary schools in Uttar Pradesh, a robust team of trained educators will be crucial for the successful rollout of the HPC. Both board and internal examinations will need to align with these new assessment formats.

5 prisoners from Aligarh jail clear UP Board exams in first attempt
Five inmates lodged in the Aligarh district jail, all convicted of heinous crimes, have cleared Uttar Pradesh Board examinations this year in their first attempt, officials said Sunday. According to jail officials, three of them passed the class 10th examination and two of them cleared the class 12th examination. The results of these prisoners have thus opened a fresh window of hope for other prisoners, Jail Superintendent Brijendra Yadav said. Yadav told reporters that all five inmates are aged between 25 and 28 years. One of them is charged with murder, while three others are charged under POSCO Act for having raped minors. The fifth has been booked in a case of acid attack. "All the prisoners are under trial," he said. This year's results could well turn out to be a watershed moment in the lives of these prisoners because they now see a glimmer of hope of leading a normal life after serving their terms. Yadav said, "They (inmates) are now hoping to continue their studies through distance education courses and we will be encouraging them in their attempts." This comes as the UP Board released the 12th board examination results on Friday. In an impressive result, 91 out of 94 prisoners from different jails across the state have passed the examination.

GDS recruitment scam in Odisha: CBI conducts raids in five districts
BHUBANESWAR: The CBI on Wednesday carried out searches at 12 locations in five districts of Odisha as part of its ongoing investigation into the Gramin Dak Sevak (GDS) recruitment scam. Sources said searches were conducted on the premises of individuals involved in the case, including middlemen and those engaged in producing forged matriculation certificates of the Uttar Pradesh Board and the NIOS. The searches spanned across five districts - Khurda (Bhubaneswar), Kalahandi, Balangir, Sambalpur and Keonjhar. 'The searches led to recovery of several incriminating documents and articles. CBI had already filed charge sheet on December 30, 2024 against 58 accused people - 55 candidates and three middlemen,' sources said. The central agency had registered a case on May 9, 2023 after the chief postmaster general, Odisha Circle, filed a complaint alleging that some candidates had submitted fake matriculation certificates to secure jobs during the GDS recruitment process in 2023. The department of Post had flagged irregularities in the recruitment process for GDS, for which online applications were invited on January 27, 2023. During verification, the Odisha Postal Circle found that 63 candidates from various postal divisions had submitted fake and forged 10th pass certificates.
