The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has issued a strict circular dated 2 September 2025, mandating enhanced accuracy in demographic details of Class 10 and 12 students. Schools are now required to verify and certify every change—incomplete or undocumented correction requests will be outrightly rejected. This measure places full accountability on schools and parents to ensure that records are error-free well before board documents are issued.
Key Requirements for Correcting Demographic Details
Below is a brief overview of the enhanced verification process mandated by CBSE:
- Schools must maintain accurate records in admission forms, scholar registers, and transfer certificates.
- Certified documents from previous schools are mandatory for all correction requests—partial or unclear submissions will be rejected.
- CBSE emphasized that requests sent directly by students—via legal notices, courts, or mail—will no longer be entertained. All correction requests must be routed through schools.
Why do these CBSE Rules Matter?
These updated protocols aim to prevent delays in issuing marksheets, passing certificates, and admit cards—documents that hold legal and academic value throughout students’ careers.
- The Board flagged chronic issues such as unverified requests, missing documents, and unreadable records, which have delayed processing.
CBSE has now placed the onus on schools and parents to ensure the accuracy of student details at every stage, reducing post-result correction demands
