How to avail of examination concessions for class 10 and 12?

Examination concessions are granted by the Regional Office of the CBSE which has jurisdiction over the school. To avail of examination concessions on the grounds of disability, the student must submit a request in writing along with the medical certificates and recommendation of the head of school in which they study while they are in class 9 (for the 10th board exam) or class 11 (for the 12th board exam) to the school. The school, when it receives such a request, must forward the request to the concerned Regional Office promptly and in time for the Regional Office to acknowledge and make arrangements. It would also be useful for the school, to avoid any liability in the future, to hold special awareness sessions for children with disabilities and their families to appraise them of the examination concessions and the manner in which to avail of them.
