CBSE has issued instructions for schools to submit the List of Candidates (LOC) for the 2026 Class 10 and 12 board exams. For the first time, Class 10 will have two board exams starting mid-February 2026. Schools must include all Class 10 students in the LOC. The Academic Performance Assessment Report (APAAR) ID is now mandatory for filling the LOC, except for schools abroad. Schools must submit accurate student details to avoid exam issues. The deadline for LOC submission is September 30, 2025. These changes follow the National Education Policy 2020 and aim to reduce exam stress and improve student records.
