The West Bengal Board of Secondary Education (WBBSE) is an autonomous body established by the government of West Bengal to look after the secondary education activities in the state. WBBSE is responsible for framing rules and regulations, guidelines, syllabus, evaluation criteria etc., for the Class 8 along with the other classes from 6th to 10th examinations in West Bengal.
As per the WBBSE guidelines, the evaluation of all Class 8 students throughout the year is conducted by the respective schools. Accordingly, every school conducts Formative (FA) and Summative Assessment (SA) and examinations for 8th students. Students studying in the 8th standard can check the exam pattern and syllabus. We have provided all the details related to West Bengal Board Class 8 in this article.
For 8th grade WBBSE affiliated school exam, each student has to take the following subjects:
Sl No | Subjects |
---|---|
1 | First Language – (Normally most of the students choose Bengali as the first language subject, although many other subjects are available) |
2 | Second Language -(Normally most of the students choose English as the second language subject, although many other subjects are available) |
3 | Third Language -(Normally most of the students choose either Hindi or Sanskrit as the third language subject, although many other subjects are available) |
4 | Mathematics |
5 | Science and Environment |
6 | Geography and Environment |

Please note that there is no pass / fail system upto 8th grade evaluation for West Bengal Board of Secondary Education. Care is taken by the teachers that the students get at least 25% or more marks and promoted to the next higher class.
But if a student falls short of 25% either in Summative Evaluation or in Formative Evaluation or in both, one month’s time is given. In such cases, both the student and the teacher work together hard to improve the performance of the student and then the evaluation is done again. This process is continued until the student improves adequately to score 25% plus and promoted to the next higher class.
Hence, every grade 8 student is promoted to grade 9 after passing through this evaluation system.
