Maintain uniform policy on online school exams

This is to bring to the notice of the concerned authorities that different schools follow different policies regarding the submission of the hard copy of the answer paper. Most schools and higher secondaries require their students to upload their answer sheets within the stipulated time. However some higher secondary schools ask for the hard copy of the answer sheet to be handed over in the school everyday. This puts a lot of stress on the parents and students as there is no proper transport nor is the school bus plying. The hard copy of the answer papers could be handed over for all exams once the exam is over so that the student needs  to come to the school only once.

Some schools conduct the internal exams online whereas some prefer to hold the same exams offline, thereby having no uniformity in holding the internal tests/exams. Also many higher secondary schools hold online classes starting from 8.30 am to 1.30 pm. Here also there is no uniformity in the number of hours devoted to online classes. I request the education department to issue directives to all schools and higher secondaries to follow a uniform policy.
