The Central Board of Secondary Education has released the sample question papers and marking schemes for the 2027 Class 10 and 12 board examinations. The papers are available on cbse.gov.in and cbseacademic.nic.in. The Board has confirmed there is no change in the assessment pattern or passing criteria for the 2026-27 academic session.

Separately, CBSE announced that submission of the List of Candidates for the 2027 Class 10 first board examination will open on September 24, 2026 and close on October 21, 2026. Schools must register all regular and bona fide students with correct personal details and photographs. The Board will not entertain requests for subject changes after submission.
Both Hindustan Times and Times of India report the CBSE sample paper release as a straight procedural notice, with no critical framing. The coverage is uniform and neutral, focusing on where to download the papers and the fact that the assessment pattern is unchanged from 2025-26. Hindustan Times adds a separate story on LOC submission dates for the 2027 exams, another administrative detail. With no competing narratives across sources, the key takeaway is stability: students can prepare using existing patterns. The next milestone to watch is the release of the board exam date sheet.
