CBSE Revises Class 10 Curriculum and Exam Structure for 2028 Board Exams

Analysed 30 Oct 2026·8 sources analysed·Connecticut, United States·Education
CBSE Revises Class 10 Curriculum and Exam Structure for 2028 Board ExamsPreviousNext

The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has revised the Class 10 curriculum for students entering in 2027-28, removing Environmental Education and excluding new subjects like Individuals in Society and Computational Thinking (CT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) modules for the 2026-27 Class 9 batch. The board confirmed five compulsory subjects for Class 10 exams, with an optional skill paper that can help students pass if they fail core subjects. Vocational education remains mandatory, with two pathways for assessment, including a nationally recognised certification option. These changes aim to clarify the academic structure and reduce student burden.
