CBSE to offer two science, social science levels in Class 9 from next year

Hindustan Times  

The Central Board of Secondary Education will introduce two-tier difficulty levels—standard and advanced—for science and social science for class 9 from the 2026-27 academic year and class 10 in 2027-28. “From 2026, students of class 9 will be studying two levels — standard and advanced for science and social science. The two levels are in line with the National Education Policy 2020, which recommended that “all subjects and corresponding assessments, beginning with mathematics, could be offered at two levels, with students doing some of their subjects at the standard level and others at a higher level.” The CBSE has been offering two levels of mathematics in class 10 since 2019-20. The board has requested the National Council of Educational Research and Training to publish new Class 9 and 10 textbooks for science and social science with an additional section incorporating material for the advanced level.
