Teachers and students are worried regarding the evaluation of students and their admission to colleges.

The Government School Teachers' Association, Delhi on Wednesday welcomed the decision of the Centre to cancel the Class 12 board examinations. However, teachers and students are worried regarding the evaluation of students and their admission to colleges. Teachers who are busy taking online classes and attended all the phone calls said it is good that a decision has been taken. Speaking to ANI, Ajay Vir Yadav, general secretary, Government School Teachers' Association, Delhi said, "We obey decision by the central government but students and teachers both were excited regarding the board examinations.""If pre-board examinations are made the evaluation base it will not be a proper justification for students because here, on one hand, students prepare themselves more based on pre-board results and on the other hand teachers check the answer sheets much more strictly in order to make students study harder and improve themselves for much better scores," added Mr Yadav.
