The scope and breadth of the CBSE curriculum, vertical progression within core subjects across primary, middle and high school, with a diverse range of 100+ subjects for students to choose from in Grades 11 and 12.
The CBSE curriculum draws its strength from the rigorous content and cross-curricular integration of Artificial Intelligence, Arts and sports emphasis on Teachers’ Professional Development via Hubs of Learning initiative from CBSE Collaboration and sharing of best practices across schools in the Middle East through the CBSE Gulf Sahodaya. The balance of knowledge and application tested in the board exams along with the extensive moderation of assessments in both practical and theory formats ensures that students rise up to the demands of high stakes competitive examinations straight from high-school years.
Thinkers and well-qualified teachers are constantly questioning and reviewing the status-quo of curriculum content offered by different boards. While at a national level, it requires an Aristotle with a lever to make sustainable changes, at the school level, the leaders and subject experts can do much with efficacy and urgency to ensure that the curriculum is designed for quality and meets every learner’s needs.
The CBSE, the National Curriculum of India, which acquired its name in 1952, impacts the lives of millions of students who study this curriculum, and over 3 million students who sit the annual board exams in grades 10 and 12, every year. The well-drawn CBSE curriculum framework offered by more than 20,000+ schools and across 24 countries, portrays its affordability and reliability in ensuring preparedness for tertiary education, both within India and internationally.
While CBSE centrally controls the administration of examinations in grades 10 and 12 of its affiliated schools, it empowers schools to enrich and innovate within the curriculum, to provide a holistic program encompassing life skills, values, and preparedness for the world of work.
