The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) will implement a dual-level system for Science and Social Science subjects in class X, starting in the 2026-27 academic year. This system allows students to choose between 'standard' and 'basic' levels. This change aims to reduce academic pressure and accommodate different learning abilities, similar to the current system for Mathematics. It will affect the curriculum, assessments, and possibly textbook content. The introduction of this dual-level system marks a significant shift in how these subjects are taught and evaluated, providing more options for students based on their individual needs.
