Hello,

In the context of the CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education) in India, passing under the vocational scheme in class 12 means that the student has completed and passed their Class 12 exams with a focus on vocational subjects rather than traditional academic subjects.

Vocational education is designed to prepare students for specific trades, crafts, and careers at various levels. The curriculum typically includes a mix of theoretical knowledge and practical skills related to a specific vocation.

Hope this helps,

Thank you
