From the academic year starting from 2018, students of the Council of Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) will follow new syllabi for exams.
The council has decided to change the syllabi for Classes 9, 10 and 12 to ensure that more students crack competitive exams. The changes have also focused on making syllabi lighter for Classes 9 and 10.
Changes will be made to subjects such as history, civics, geography, mathematics and physics in the Class 9 to 10 in the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) and Class 12 in the Indian School Certificate (ISC) exams. Changes will be on subjects including physics, chemistry, mathematics and biology. The question papers will also be framed on the lines of the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE).
