UP Board APAAR ID Update: Classes 9 to 12 Students Asked to Create APAAR ID, Why Is It Important?

The Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad (UPMSP), also known as the UP Board, has asked schools to help students of Classes 9 to 12 create their APAAR IDs. Schools have also been asked to record these IDs in students’ registration forms.

The move is aimed at making students’ academic records easier to store and access digitally. Marksheets, transfer certificates and other important education documents can be linked to the APAAR ID and kept safely in digital form.

The UP Board wants schools to ensure that students from Classes 9 to 12 get their APAAR IDs created and linked to their academic records. The board has instructed schools to enter the APAAR ID details in advance registration and examination application forms.

The board is also working towards recording the APAAR IDs of all students before the registration deadline. Its target is to have the IDs of 100 per cent of eligible students entered in the required records.

Why Is APAAR ID Important?

APAAR ID is designed to provide students with a digital identity for their academic records. It can help keep important documents such as marksheets and transfer certificates organised and available digitally.
