As per CBSE, the examination time must be celebrated as ‘Pariksha Parv’ and must be dealt with utmost peace of mind to give the best shot. The country’s largest school education board also shared that India distastefully stares at the world’s highest number of suicides committed by students due to ‘unbearable pressure of exams.’ As per data collected by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), 26,476 students committed suicide between the years 2014-2016, out of which, 7462 cases (28.1%) were of student suicides due to failure in various examinations.
CBSE highlighted that exam anxiety or stress could be associated with lack of preparation, lack of needed information, style of study, parents/peer pressure, amongst many other reasons leading to extreme steps taken by students like committing suicide or self-harm.
NCPCR has released a list of prominent counsellors, psychologists, psychiatrists and behavioural counsellors who’ll be taking these live streaming sessions in which students and parents can ask questions concerning their and the emotional wellbeing of their wards, respectively.
These streaming sessions will be live on NCPCR’s official Facebook page and Twitter handle.
Stress less and prepare well for Success, All the Best!
