  • To compensate attrition and optimally utilize seats, JNVST, developed by CBSE, is also conducted for admission to Class IX and lateral admissions, based on merit in Class X, are made for Class XI.

 

Academics and Quality of Education

A particular Navodaya Vidyalaya usually provides two streams among Science, Arts and Commerce for Class XI and XII. JNVs are known for their academic excellence, which can be contributed to their merit-based entrance test and unique climate provided to otherwise disadvantaged children, and which is further proved by their performance at board examinations.

 

Three Language Formula

To facilitate migration every JNV teaches three languages in class VI to Class IX. These languages are grouped into A Level and B-I and B-II Level. The pattern followed in different categories of states is as shown in the table below. However, CBSE mandates for children to study two languages only. Therefore students of each category of states appear for A Level and B-I level languages at CBSE examinations.
