The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has released the curriculum for Classes 9 to 12 for the academic year 2024-25 that commences from April 1.
“CBSE provides the annual curriculum for classes IX to XII containing academic content, syllabus for examinations with learning outcomes, pedagogical practices, and assessment guidelines,” the academic board said in a circular on March 22.
For class 10 students, CBSE has prescribed five compulsory subjects and two optional subjects. Class 12's syllabus includes seven major learning areas: languages, humanities, mathematics, sciences, skill subjects, general studies and health, and physical education.
The board has advised schools to teach subjects under the prescribed curriculum, incorporating methodologies such as multilingualism, art-integrated education, experiential learning, and pedagogical plans, wherever feasible.
The CBSE curriculum for classes 9-12 can be accessed at the link-Secondary and Senior Secondary School Curriculum https://cbseacademic.nic.in/curriculum_2025.html.
In its notice, CBSE also said that the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) has informed that new syllabi and textbooks for Grades 3 and 6 are currently under development and will soon be released.
“Additionally, a bridge course for class 6, and concise guidelines for class 3 are being developed by NCERT for facilitating a seamless transition for students to new pedagogical practices and areas of study aligned with NCF-SE 2023.”
The new resources will be disseminated to all the schools online once they are received from NCERT, the board said, adding that it will also organise capacity-building programmes for school heads and teachers to orient them with the new teaching-learning perspectives as envisioned in the New Education Policy (NEP)-2020.
CBSE also clarified that apart from Classes 3 and 6, there will be no change in the curriculum and textbooks for the academic year 2024-25.
