The Central Board of Secondary Education (abbreviated as CBSE) is a Board of Education for public and private schools, under the Union Government of India. It is designed keeping in mind a multidimensional child-centric approach.
It is both interactive and pragmatic. The curriculum nurtures children to be confident, self-sufficient, develop an independent thought process and a never ending urge for learning.
The thrusts here include enabling learners to respond to the impact of globalization and the demands of the emerging knowledge-based economy and society.
The CBSE curriculum seeks to provide opportunities for students to achieve excellence in learning vis a vis global standards.
