Karnataka Secondary Education Examination Board (KSEEB) came into existence in the year 1966. It conducts examinations for class 10th of affiliated schools, such as St. Paul’s High School (Belgaum). The Board has Bangalore as its headquarters. Examination related issues pertaining to four educational divisions are addressed by divisional secretaries or ex-officio Joint Directors of the Board at Belguam, Kalaburgi and Mysore. KSEEB headquarters is at Malleshwaram, Bangalore which houses the Secretary’s office for Bangalore educational division also..

Every year nearly 8.5 lakh students appear for the SSLC (Secondary School Leaving Certificate) examination which will be conducted in March/April of every year. The Board re-conducts the same examination in the month of June for the benefit of the students who fail in main examinations. Nearly 2.20 lakh students take the supplementary examination.

Director, Exams is the head of the Board for all the issues related to SSLC examinations.

The Board has separate wings for administrative matters, accounts, tenders, evaluation and scrutiny of applications of candidates. There are nine scrutiny sections which verify the applications of SSLC from all the 34 educational districts. Computer section is common for all the wings of the Board.

Various steps have been initiated from the year 2017-18 to digitalize the whole examination process. Registration for the examination has become online and the same method is followed for downloading of admission tickets and the results. The Board has done away with the usage of OMRs for the purpose of communication of marks from evaluation centres and is instead, using online portal for the purpose. This has not only saved the time but also avoided possible wrong scanning in case of faulty shadings. Results are conveyed to the students through SMSs. Students can download the marks sheet using digiLocker app.

Karnataka State Quality Assessment and Accreditation Council is another major wing of KSEEB. Main task of KSQAAC is to assess the quality of education imparted at primary, higher primary and secondary levels through State achievement surveys.
