CBSE Board Examinations play a vital role in the life of students following the curriculum of India’s Central Board of Secondary Education. CBSE schools that operate in Bahrain are obliged to comply with the law of the land.
With the CBSE Board exams just around the corner, CBSE schools are doing their best to ensure that their students are going to excel in their exams and make themselves proud.
The CBSE Board leaves no stone unturned to provide stress-free exams to the students as it is obvious that the performance of the students in the exams depends much on them being stress free. The CBSE Schools in Bahrain ally with the board to ensure that the students are free from any form of stress so that they will be able to excel in their exams. The CBSE Board allocates exam centres to the students of CBSE schools in Bahrain. The exam centres allotted to them are in other schools where they have not attended the classes.
Since the school has decided not to provide school buses to their own students to travel to and from the exam centres, the students are made responsible for arranging their own transport, which leads to a lot of stress. The students may feel bitter because their own school has deserted them at this crucial time by putting this responsibility on them.
Parents feel safer when their children travel in the school buses. But when they have to travel in unfamiliar vehicles to an unfamiliar school, they are most likely to lose their sense of safety and feel stressed.
At this crucial moment of going through one of the toughest challenges in their life, the school that always takes the responsibility of transporting the students to and from the school should shoulder the responsibility of taking the risks involved in transporting their own students to the exam centres and help them excel in their exams, without any stress.
It is expected that the authorities concerned will look into this matter and take necessary action to advise the school to provide the students with school buses.
