CBSE Cracks Down on Dummy Schools: Students Not Attending Regular School Can’t Sit for Class 12 Exams

CBSE Cracks Down on Dummy Schools: Students Not Attending Regular School Can’t Sit for Class 12 Exams

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has taken a strict step against dummy schools—institutions that enroll students only on paper but don’t actually make them attend classes. Many students join coaching centers instead of going to school regularly. Now, CBSE says this will not be allowed anymore.


What Are Dummy Schools?

Dummy schools are schools where students register for board exams but don’t attend daily classes. Instead, they go to private coaching centers for studies, especially for competitive exams like NEET or JEE.


CBSE’s New Rule

From now on, Class 10 and 12 students must attend regular school classes. If a student is not regularly present in school or is found only registered in name, they will not be allowed to appear in the Class 12 board exams.


Why Is CBSE Doing This?

CBSE wants to make sure that students get a complete education—not just coaching for exams. School is not only for studies, but also for all-round development like sports, communication skills, discipline, and more. Dummy schooling harms this learning.


Schools Must Follow Rules

CBSE has told all affiliated schools:

  • Students must have at least 75% attendance.
  • Schools must not admit students who plan to skip regular classes.
  • Schools that break these rules may face strict action or lose affiliation.

Conclusion

The CBSE’s new rule is meant to improve the quality of education and ensure students attend regular classes. It sends a clear message: real learning happens in schools, not just in coaching centers.
