Starting from the upcoming academic year, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will require students to link their details to an APAR (Automated Permanent Academic Record) number. This rule will apply to students from classes 9 to 12, and the APAR number must be included during the registration for the 10th and 12th board exams.
The CBSE Governing Council has decided to make the APAR number a mandatory part of the board exam registration process starting with the next exam session. The APAR number will serve as a unique 12-digit identification number for each student throughout their academic journey.
Once implemented, this system will allow easy access to a student’s entire academic history exam results, academic records, scholarships, and other related details linked to the APAR number. This will make tracking a student’s progress more organized and efficient throughout their life. The APAR number will remain the same for the entire duration of a student’s academic career, helping to reduce confusion and administrative issues. This change aims to create a more streamlined and transparent system for both students and educational institutions. It also promises to enhance security and reduce the possibility of errors or fraudulent activities in academic records.
