The official notification confirms that the JAC board exams will be held in two phases, starting simultaneously for both the Matric (Class 10) and Intermediate (Class 12) students. Schools have also been instructed to ensure the timely completion of internal assessments and practical examinations in accordance with the council’s directives.

Exam Duration and Schedule Overview

The Jharkhand Academic Council emphasised the need for students to follow the datesheet closely to avoid confusion, particularly due to multiple language and stream-specific subjects. The JAC Board Exams 2026 will take place as follows:

• Class 10 (Matric): February 3 to February 17, 2026

• Class 12 (Intermediate): February 3 to February 23, 2026

• JAC 12th Admit Card: Available from January 17, 2026

Students can download their hall tickets through their respective school login portals. Schools must verify all student details to avoid errors that may lead to complications during results or certification.

Practical Exams and Internal Assessment Guidelines

Practical examinations for both Class X and XII will be conducted from February 24 to March 7, 2026. The​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ authority has declared through stringent rules that any student who is not present during the practical tests will be considered absent for the whole board examination by the council. As a result, these students will not be able to obtain their mark sheets, no matter what their theory paper grades ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌are. Schools must upload the practical and internal assessment marks b/w February 25 and March 9, 2026, with JAC clearly stating that:

• No offline submissions will be accepted

• Late submissions will not be entertained

• Responsibility for delays lies solely with the concerned principal

Council Advisory for Schools and Students

JAC’s advisory underscores the importance of the practical examinations and timely mark submission. In​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌ order to guarantee error-free results, the council has decided to take a zero-tolerance stance towards incomplete assessments and late uploads. Schools have been given the instruction to be open to the public and follow the timelines strictly.

As part of the study season, students are suggested to follow a daily study plan that would include revising the past materials as well as practising writing. There are just a few weeks left before the examinations start and therefore this time is very important for further preparation and fill in the gaps in each ​‍​‌‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍​‍‌subject.
