CBSE
Overview:
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) was established in 1929 as the "Board of High School and Intermediate Education" and was later renamed as the Central Board of Secondary Education in 1952. As a national-level education board in India, CBSE aims to provide a holistic, complete, vibrant, analytical, and robust school education that helps students achieve excellence in every phase of their lives. CBSE conducts various research and development programs to improve educational standards in the country. Recently, CBSE has introduced a new grading system based on continuous and comprehensive evaluation (CCE).
CBSE affiliation is recognized internationally and is considered prestigious worldwide. The curriculum followed by schools affiliated to CBSE is formulated by the National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT). In 1962, there were around 309 schools affiliated to CBSE, but as of 2019, CBSE had approximately 21,271 schools in India and 228 schools in 25 different countries.
