Preparations are underway for major changes in school education. RBSE is now working on a plan to conduct the 10th board exam twice a year. This change will be implemented under the National Education Policy. If everything goes as per plan, then this new system can be implemented from the 2026-27 session. Its main objective is to reduce the board exam pressure on students and give them an additional opportunity to improve their marks.
At present Rajasthan Board’s 10th class examination is held only once a year. If a student fails in the examination or gets less marks, then he has only two options, either wait for a full year or give the supplementary examination. Due to this, mental pressure increases on many students and sometimes they even leave studies. To reduce this problem, the board is preparing to implement a new examination system.
Opportunity to take exam twice a year
Under the new scheme, students will be able to appear for board exams twice a year. This will allow students to take the exam as per their preparation. If a student does not get the expected marks in the first exam, he can try again in the second exam and improve his marks. This will also reduce the fear of board exams and increase the confidence of the students.
There will also be administrative challenges
It will not be easy to conduct board exams twice a year. For this, the board will have to make many new arrangements, preparation of more question papers, arrangement of additional examination centres, early verification of copies, training of teachers and staff. Keeping this in mind, Rajasthan Education Department has already started assessment of resources and discussion on teacher training.

The system may be on CBSE model
This proposal of the Rajasthan government is believed to be largely inspired by the model of the Central Board of Secondary Education. CBSE is also going to implement the plan of conducting the 10th board exam twice a year from 2026. In this system, students can get the option to choose the better score from both the exams, due to which the best marks will be recorded in their final marksheet.
If this plan is implemented then Rajasthan Board 10th exam can be conducted in two phases. The first exam will be held between December to January and the second exam will be held between March to April. However, the final decision will be taken by the high level committee of the board and the exam calendar will be prepared in such a way that it does not affect college admission or admission to the next class.
What will be the benefits for students
- Mental pressure of board exams will reduce
- If you get low marks, you will get a chance to improve.
- The problem of dropping out of studies may be reduced
- Students’ confidence will increase
