The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has released the CBSE Class 10, 12 syllabus for the academic year 2024-25. The CBSE curriculum and internal assessment information are now available on the board’s official websites, cbse.gov.in and cbseacademic.nic.in.
The CBSE Board has recently published the syllabus and other assessment details in Hindi. The curriculum can now be accessed by students in both English and Hindi.
All CBSE schools were asked to study the National Credit Framework developed by the University Grants Commission (UGC) to make school education more flexible and multi-disciplinary to address the challenges of the twenty-first century. The credit system recommends expanding the number of required subjects and learning hours.
According to the school board, the recent focus of CBSE is on developing 21st-century skills in settings where each student feels independent, safe, and comfortable with learning. The board also stated that children must get adequate knowledge and abilities in other basic areas such as health and physical education, life skills, values education, art education, financial literacy, digital literacy, and work education.
