The Jammu and Kashmir Board of School Education (JKBOSE) has officially released a crucial notification regarding the Higher Secondary Part-I (Class 11th) and Part-II (Class 12th) Annual Regular Reappear Examinations for October–November 2025.
As per the circular issued by the Board’s Examination Wing, Bemina (Kashmir Division), the notification is meant for all Assistant Secretaries, Incharge Officers, and Heads of Higher Secondary Schools (Govt./Pvt.) across the division. The update clarifies that Admit Cards for these upcoming examinations will be issued only to those students who are reappearing or failed in the previous Annual Regular 2025 (March Session) exams but have now qualified in all five compulsory subjects as per the board’s prescribed norms.
This notification is an essential update for both students and school authorities to ensure compliance with eligibility rules for participation in the reappear examinations scheduled for October–November 2025.
Who Can Appear in the JKBOSE Reappear Exams 2025?
The latest notice strictly defines which candidates are eligible for the upcoming examination session. Only the following category of students are allowed to appear:
- Students who were declared Reappear/Failure in the Annual Regular 2025 (March Session) Examination.
- Candidates who were provisionally admitted to the next class but have since cleared all five compulsory subjects as per the rules notified earlier (vide Notification No: F(PS–JSE)KD/PCA/11th/12th/Nov–25 Dated 10.09.2025).
- No new or ineligible candidates will be permitted to appear under this session.
This measure ensures that only students who have met the academic qualification norms as per JKBOSE guidelines can sit for the exams.
Responsibilities of School Heads & Examination Superintendents
The notification emphasizes the role of school authorities and examination superintendents in ensuring the smooth and fair conduct of these exams.
All Heads of Institutions and Superintendents of examination centres must:
- Verify eligibility of students before issuing admit cards or allowing them to appear in the examination.
- Ensure that no student who failed to qualify in the Bi-Annual 2025 Examination is permitted to sit for the Regular Reappear Session.
- Follow the issued norms strictly; any violation or negligence will result in disciplinary action from competent authorities.
