How to approach CBSE for your queries

CBSE has been receiving too many queries directly from students and parents to their head office. CBSE has regional offices which have been set up to handle regional matters and also solve the queries of schools and students coming in their region. In this regard CBSE has issued the following important circular for the benefit of students and parents.

You are aware that Central Board of Secondary Education is having 10 Regional Offices across the country to serve to the schools and students under their jurisdiction. Details of the Regional Offices and their jurisdiction is given on CBSE's website.

Regional Offices plays vital role in supporting schools and students to resolve their issues as per Examination Bye-Laws of the CBSE. As per policy and procedure mentioned in Examination Bye-Laws, all the requests received from stakeholders are processed by the Regional Office. These requests are either decided by the concerned Regional Officer or the Chairperson/Controller of Examinations at the Head Quarter, Delhi as per delegation of powers.

In the recent past, it has been observed that Principals/schools, students and parents are directly sending requests to the Senior Officers, CBSE, Head Quarters, Delhi. As these requests cannot be processed at Head Quarters and hence these requests are forwarded to Regional Office concerned for processing. This delays the action on the requests.

To avoid delay following guidelines are being issued: -

All Head of the schools should send their correspondence to the Regional Office concerned only

Parents/Students be made aware by the schools that if they wish to make any request, the same should be made to the school only.

Head of the school will make the recommendations as per Examination Bye Laws and send the request to the concerned Regional Office.

Subject for which request is to be made to the Regional Offices is given in Annexure - I. Yearwise information about issuing of duplicate documents and the Regional Office is given in Annexure-11. Fee for issuing duplicate documents is given in Annexure-Ill.

It is therefore, advised to make the request accordingly through proper channel for prompt and timely action at the end of the CBSE.
