Bhushan said candidates applying for any of these processes will have to accept the decision of CBSE as “final and binding”.

Smaller schools also produce high scorers: Principal

Speaking on the publicity surrounding CBSE results, Bhushan said, “CBSE results are widely publicised where big and famous schools advertise their high scorers in a way products are commercialised or marketed, little realising that smaller schools and their children are equally capable of scoring high marks.”

He cited the example of Palak Agrawal, a student of GN Convent School, Garhwa, who scored 91 percent in the CBSE Senior Secondary Examination.

“However, in this rush of publicity, students from small places like Garhwa are often overshadowed by scorers from high-priced schools in big cities,” the principal lamented.

Painting subject ignored despite high scores

Bhushan also pointed out that students scoring exceptionally high marks in subjects like painting rarely receive recognition.

“CBSE also has painting as a subject and students have secured as high as 99 percent marks in it. No one talks about painting. It is English and science subjects that get all the attention,” he quipped.

Hard work key to success in smaller towns

When asked about students from smaller towns performing well in national-level examinations such as CBSE and ISCE, Bhushan said determination and continuous hard work play the biggest role.

“It is hard and continuous labour that brings success. Students from smaller places like Garhwa are far more determined to struggle and work hard. We had 57 students in the Senior Secondary Examination and all performed very well,” he said.
