Post-Result Counselling: What’s Offered
To support students navigating the emotional aftermath of results and exam pressure, CBSE is offering free counselling through multiple platforms:
- IVRS Support (24×7): Dial 1800-11-8004 for automated guidance on topics such as time management, stress, motivation, and study planning.
- Tele-Counselling (9:30 AM – 5:30 PM, IST): Speak with one of 65 trained professionals, including school principals, counsellors, and special educators — 51 based in India, and 14 abroad.
- Digital Resources: Access short videos and podcasts on mental well-being, coping strategies, and exam stress via the official CBSE website and YouTube channel (search CBSE HQ).
Students and parents can find all these resources in the ‘Counselling’ section of the CBSE official website.
Supporting Students Beyond Results
This counselling initiative comes at a crucial time, as students not only process their board results but also prepare for competitive exams like CUET, JEE, and NEET. CBSE’s proactive support ensures mental wellness and emotional resilience remain a top priority.
Whether you’re a student needing guidance or a parent seeking advice, this free service is designed to help you navigate the post-exam phase with confidence and calm.
