After the arrest of two teachers working at Mother Khazani Convent School in connection with the CBSE paper leak, the police on Sunday said that the role of the school staff would also be investigated.
According to procedure, the exam invigilators are supposed to be given the question paper around 9.45 a.m., before the examination formally starts at 10.30 a.m. The students are handed the question paper at 10.15 a.m.
In this case, however, the school authorities allegedly provided the question papers to teachers at 9 a.m. which, according to the police, gave the two accused ample time to click pictures and send the paper to Tauqeer, a tutor at a private coaching centre, who circulated them to the students, the official said.
The police are also probing whether question papers of other subjects were given to the teachers before the scheduled time.
