The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has allowed students with basic mathematics in Class 10 to pursue the subject in Class 11 onwards. The decision will be implemented from the 2025-2026 academic session. The notification (dated May 27) asked the school heads to ensure that the student has the ability and aptitude to handle Class 11 mathematics.
Notably, in CBSE, two levels of Mathematics for the Secondary School Examination were introduced from the academic session ending March 2020 onwards.
The Mathematics (Standard) is for those students who wish to opt for Mathematics (041) at Class 12 level, and the Mathematics (Basic) is for students who are not keen to pursue Mathematics at higher levels. In the previous sessions, CBSE had given an exemption to offer Mathematics (041) in classes 10th and 12th to the students who offered Mathematics (Basic) in Class 10; however, the decision was affected because of the pandemic and other issues.
As per the change, the relaxation students who offered Mathematics Basic (241) are now also allowed to offer Mathematics (041) in Class 11. “Before permitting Mathematics (041) in class XI to such students, the head of the Institution/School should satisfy that the students have the aptitude and ability to pursue Mathematics (041) in class 11th,” read the notification.
It is important for parents to note that once the subject is filled in LOC, no changes will be entertained. However, the Board informed that this relaxation will not be applicable once the new scheme of studies is implemented. The new scheme of studies will be based on the recommendations of the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF-SE).
Meanwhile, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will start registrations for the CBSE supplementary exams for private students today. The registration facility is for both classes 10th and 12th. Students who are interested and want to apply for the CBSE supplementary results can visit the official website.
Moreover, CBSE Class 12 students are permitted to register for the improvement exams in one subject; on the other hand, Class 1o students can improve their scores in up to two subjects.
