Madhyamik Age Limit: The West Bengal Board of Secondary Education (WBBSE) has released a significant circular regarding the minimum age requirement for candidates intending to appear in the Madhyamik Pariksha (Secondary Examination), 2027. The circular has been issued as per the order of the Board’s President to inform the Heads of all recognised Secondary Schools. This announcement is crucial for future candidates and their guardians, as the student registration process will be based on this directive.
Detailed Age Criteria
According to the circular, a specific age limit has been set for students to be eligible for the Madhyamik Examination in 2027. The main conditions are:
- Eligibility Date: Only candidates whose date of birth is on or before October 31, 2012, will be considered eligible to appear for the Madhyamik Pariksha, 2027.
- Ineligibility Condition: School authorities are requested not to send the names of students whose date of birth is after October 31, 2012.
This rule is guided by established West Bengal Government orders.
Important Directives for Schools and Students
The WBBSE has instructed all school authorities to strictly follow these regulations.
- Prohibition on Name Submission: Schools are explicitly told not to send the names of students born after the specified cut-off date to the Board.
- Registration Certificates: The Board has clarified that no Registration Certificates will be prepared if any candidate’s date of birth is beyond October 31, 2012. This is a critical step, as no student can take the Madhyamik examination without a valid Registration Certificate.
Advice for Parents and Guardians
Parents and guardians are advised to verify their child’s birth documents to ensure they meet the eligibility criteria for the 2027 examination. It is essential to maintain regular communication with the school authorities and stay informed about the Board’s directives. This rule, signed by the Board Secretary, ensures that students begin their academic year and exam preparation at the appropriate age and time.
