BISE Rawalpindi Introduces Digital System for Paper Marking

The Board of Intermediate and Secondary Education (BISE) Rawalpindi has unveiled a digital examination marking system to enhance the evaluation process. Board Chairman Prof. Dr. Iqbal Mahmood announced the implementation on Wednesday following mock exercises with educational officials and examination authorities, as reported by an official statement.

The innovative system consolidates paper preparation, answer sheet production, trimming, scanning, and online assessment via a unified digital dashboard. It also incorporates electronic record-keeping for candidates, QR code-based staff attendance monitoring, and rapid scanning of answer papers. QR codes facilitate verification of candidate and invigilator attendance, while the Board's Command and Control System provides real-time video monitoring of examination venues.

Training sessions for school staff on the new marking protocols are set to commence to prepare them for the upcoming examinations. The digital system is designed to boost the efficiency and oversight of the examination process.
