Hello,

As per the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) guidelines, a student should generally be 14 years old as of March 31 of the year in which they are appearing for the Class 10 examination. Given that your daughter was born on September 15, 2012, she will be 12 years old by March 31, 2025.

Age Criteria for CBSE Class 10 Examination

• Minimum Age : 14 years as of March 31 of the examination year.

Since your daughter will be 12 years old by March 31, 2025, she does not meet the minimum age criteria set by CBSE for appearing in the Class 10 examination in the next year. She would need to be at least 14 years old by March 31, 2025, to be eligible to appear for the Class 10 exam in the 2024-2025 academic year.

Options to Consider

1. Wait Another Year : She can wait until she meets the age criteria and appear for the Class 10 examination the following year.
2. Contact School and CBSE : You can discuss this with her school administration to see if there are any provisions or exceptions that can be made. Sometimes schools can request a waiver from CBSE for age criteria under special circumstances.

It is advisable to confirm the latest guidelines directly from the CBSE website or consult with her school to explore any possible options.

Hope it helps !
