CBSE Allows Current Class 7-9 Students to Continue Existing Foreign Language Subjects Until Class 10
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has clarified that students currently in Classes 7 to 9 can continue with their existing foreign language combinations until completing Class 10, amid the rollout of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020's three-language policy. The new language requirements will apply only to students entering Class 6 from this year onward, mandating at least two Indian languages. CBSE plans to issue a revised notification to address earlier confusion and ensure smooth implementation.
