Subject: Nomination of Students for Participation in CBSE Podcasts and Social Media Initiatives
Dear Sir/Madam,
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has initiated the in-house development of educational podcasts
and digital content on various academic and counseling matters. These podcasts, already being made available on
public platforms such as YouTube, are designed to provide meaningful guidance, awareness, and support to
students, parents and schools.
To make these initiatives more relatable and student-centric, CBSE proposes to include student voices through
short video/audio interactions, testimonials, and conversations that may be used in CBSE’s official social media
podcast, content and communication.
The CBSE affiliated schools are therefore requested to nominate students (from Classes IX–XII) who are articulate,
confident, and interested in participating/ appearing in social media content/ podcasts of CBSE. The participation
is completely voluntary and based on written consent of the student and their parents/guardians through the
school concerned.
The interested school shall forward the names and brief profiles of nominated students to CBSE in the Google
form https://forms.gle/oJbJaYPaYBb7ifjN9 within 10 days from the date of issue of this circular.
It is reiterated that this opportunity is optional and intended to give students an enriching platform to express
themselves and contribute to CBSE’s outreach efforts.
Your cooperation in motivating and guiding interested students for this initiative is appreciated.
With best wishes,
(Himanshu Gupta)
Secretary
