im also giving my 12th boards this year, and i see posts on my dash all the time. please share advise on how to remember what i studied for physics and chem please

btw, all the best <3

Hello! While I graduated 12th grade a while ago, I'm happy to see you in my ask box.

Here goes the tips I used and some I tried to imbibe for smooth sailing in boards:

1. Focus on previous papers: I'm of the belief that if you do something enough times, you are bound to remember it in time of need. I revised a lot of my senior's papers (I ignored the questions/topics from the deleted syllabus to save time) and my prelim papers, all sets. It ended up helping me because the examiners lose shock value if we prepare all the questions their mind has been wanting to print.

2. NCERT: Have someone explain it to you if you are not able to decipher it. NCERT is not as comfortable to read and retain as ICSE books like Selina, Viraf Dalal etc. So it is imperative that you understand the meaning or motive behind NCERT's topics. Teachers should be of good help in this matter.

3. Supplementary sources: Youtube is fine to understand concepts, but I've seen a lot of my peers (and at a point, myself) make it their personality and their only study source. Please try not to if you have a healthier alternative available (like tuitions, extra classes, coaching). Do not run behind extra books like HCV, DC, ABC, Elementary for your boards. It doesn't really help for subjective examinations.

4. Formula sheets: Especially for Optics, Physical Chemistry and Genetics (rarely). Make them, whether as a rough copy, or a rote learning session, or a paper with tricks. But revision of that sheet is a must.

5. Parkinson's Law: "Parkinson's Law is the old adage that work expands to fill the time allotted for its completion." Basically, a task will take up as much as time as you plan it in. Revising Modern Physics will take near 30 minutes if you think it will take 30 minutes. But if you think it will take a full day, then it shall. So plan wisely and have confidence in yourself to make that work.

6. And lastly but by no means the least: Practice writing the paper. It may seem silly to think that sitting down with a sheet similar to the actual answer booklet, attempting a paper with the seriousness of the actual exam, may be tedious. However, it is more useful than it is tedious. It resolves any anxiety regarding appearing in the exam.

If you need to talk about this or anything else, feel free to ask me in my ask box or via pm or in my posts. All the best!

A Shade Darker Than Red: Chapter 7

Chapter 6.5, part 2

Two years went by and we had hardly any time left. A month, at best. And whose fault was it?

Some fancy college in Bhuvaneshwar.

“You’ll be able to apply for Oxford and Cambridge if you study here, mamoni,” Maa had told me six months ago. I couldn’t resist the offer.

With constant above average in both ICSE examinations and a track record full of fancy words (“prefect”, “head girl”, “captain”—that when cut down to its very marrow, meant being a slave to order), I realised this was probably the best chance I could get.

“Just imagine your life after this, after maybe even a PhD,” Maa murmured. It was almost like it was her dream I lived in, and not my (very real, unfortunately) life.

In a broader sense, though, I had it better than the others. Over the last couple of years, I had seen my closest friends succumb to tiny, white pills they named “drugs”—more like the pincers they use to cut your heartstrings out. I remembered empty parking lots, screams echoing off of the walls: except I could blame no one, not even Papa, this time. They were my screams, and they were my friends. Except sometimes. I confused the two.

Sometimes they were my friends’ screams, and sometimes they were mine. Sometimes the white cloth was draped over their heads, and sometimes over mine.

“Okay,” I told Maa. It was quite a dream, indeed. Mornings and nights spent doing what I loved. It felt a bit like getting back at those tiny pills, giving a silent nod to my friends.

How cheesy, they’d have said.

Now, as I sat on the balcony, swinging my legs, Barandaye Roddur randomly blared from the dysfunctional speakers in my head. I hummed its tune, going quite off-key at some points.

“Renu?”

I continued tapping my fingers on the chair’s armrest.

“Renu? Can I come in?”

I snapped out of my reverie. “Sorry, yeah, come on in!” I said, holding the door open. I’d recognise that voice anywhere.

“Paro, why do you have a penchant for randomly barging in at fucking five a.m?” I asked her, mildly annoyed. Well, I was supposed to be annoyed. Instead, I found myself grinning from ear to ear.

Paro shrugged nonchalantly, slipping into my chair. Sweat dripped from her hair and her arms seemed to have a slight tremor to them. Had she been practising bharatanatyam at five in the morning?

“You don’t look too sad about it.”

“I don’t look too sad about it because I am merciful,” I said, holding back a chuckle. “You’re tired.”

Paro pouted. I wanted to lean down and kiss her lips, remove that pout. Holy shit, what the hell, Renu?

“D’you want some tea?” I asked, tearing my eyes away from her lips. Since when did she start wearing lip gloss?

Paro drummed her fingers along the armrest. “Sure.”

I walked into the kitchen, almost tripping over the ledge right outside the balcony. I set the kettle to boil. Maa was leaning against the kitchen counter, scrubbing the sink. I set the cup down on the counter and gently pried her hands away from the sink. “Let me do that for you, Maa.”

Maa stared at me, quirking her brow.

I huffed and rolled my eyes. “Just because I’m gonna go away next month,” I said. She continued to stare at me like I was a specimen she could dissect in her lab.

“Come on, Maa, I’m not that useless!”

Maa shrugged and dropped the cloth at my side. “Is it just because Parvati is here?” she asked, eyeing me suspiciously.

I furrowed my brows. “What?”

Maa shrugged again, trying her best to look nonchalant. “I mean, you two are quite the lovebirds. You sure you aren’t trying to impress her?”

I felt heat rising in my cheeks. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, Maa,” I said, getting to work. “Besides, even if I did want to impress her, I’d have done it long ago. How can you woo a girl in a month?”

Maa grinned. “You can,” she said simply. “I’ve done it before.”

The kettle whistled. I almost cursed out loud. “Okay,” I said, trying to look cool. “Okay. Okay.”

“Such a shame your father got in the way,” Maa continued as she twirled a strand of her own hair. I couldn’t help but smile. Life with two mothers would have surely been interesting.

“Hey, Renu!” Paro called from the balcony. “That kettle whistled twice, you know!”

“Right.” I flipped the switch off and poured the steaming hot water into Paro’s favourite cup.

Maa nudged my shoulder. “If you really want to impress her, you aren’t doing an impressive job yet.”

I rolled my eyes. “Thanks, Maa.”

“Don’t roll those eyes at me. I’m off. Enjoy your alone time with Parvati.” Maa walked off to her bedroom, a cup of black tea in her hand.

Stumbling awkwardly, I balanced two cups of tea on a tray and set it in front of Paro. “Both have two tablespoons of milk and a cube of sugar. Your choice,” I said. I already knew she was going to choose the cup with cherry blossoms and dragons engraved in its handle, but I preferred watching her face light up as she caught sight of her favourite cup.

Cups. They made up twenty percent of her day, and eighty percent of mine.

I sat down on the floor as she sipped her tea, trying not to stare at the way the sunlight illuminated her sharp eyes and the broken ridge of her nose.

“So,” I began, leaning against the wall. “What do you wanna talk about?”

Paro gave me a weird look. “Since when did we have committee meetings to decide what we want to talk about?”

“Since now?”

Paro sighed and tutted at me. She leaned forward in her chair, the cup making a clink! as she kept it on the tray. “I got you a book,” she said. “I’ll give it to you later.” Her fingers tapped on the armrest again. Was she nervous? Since when was she nervous with me?

“A book,” I repeated. “Why? My birthday’s a month away.”

Paro nodded, her eyes downcast. “I know.”

I smirked, taking a sip of my tea. “Oh, so a birthday gift in advance?” I teased her. “Nah, that won’t do. You’ll have to get a plane and come visit me.”

Silence.

Paro clenched her jaw. “It’s a compilation of Edgar Allan Poe’s works.”

“All of them?” I asked, my eyes widening.

She seemed to consider it. Her nose crinkles up when she thinks too much. “I think so,” she replied. “You’d know better.”

I beamed and leaned in to pinch her cheek. “You’re adorable.”

Paro’s eyes widened.

“What? Like I’ve never called you cute before?” I demanded, flailing my arms in annoyance. “Why does everyone think today’s the only day I’m behaving decently?”

She shrugged. “Maybe it’s because you’re really happy today.”

“Of course I am,” I said, grinning. “I’m always happy. But I’m happier with you.”

Was it because everything was red, or did Paro actually blush?

“What’s—what’s your favourite poem of Poe?” Paro asked. Strange. She never stuttered, either. She was always the daughter of the rich businessman she was meant to be: head held high, a cold expression on her face. To others, anyway. I’d probably punch her in the stomach if she tried that on me.

“Are you trying to change the subject?”

“Probably.”

I chuckled, leaning against the wall again. “Tamerlane,” I replied.

Paro raised a perfectly arched eyebrow to scrutinise me. “Do you have a favourite verse?”

“Oh, she was worthy of all love,” I began in a teasing voice, twirling my fingers dramatically. “Love, as in infancy as mine—’twas such an angel minds above might envy, her young heart the shrine on which my every hope and thought were incense—then a goodly gift, for they were childish—and upright—pure—as her young example taught.”

I paused, trying and failing to keep up my facade. “Why did I leave it, and, adrift, trust to the fire within, for light?”

I looked at Paro, smiling down at me. Had she been staring this whole time?

“Did you really memorise all that?” she laughed. It was a sound as beautiful as ever. In another life, I could have been Poe, and she might have been my muse. Now, I was just a girl who wrote poetry no one ever saw, writing on and on about a goddess, Parvati, who had stolen her heart, body and soul; who laughed, danced, breathed just like someone I knew.

I shrugged. “I’ve got nothing better to do with my time,” I joked.

“No,” Paro shook her head. “I think it’s the best thing you could do with your time.”

I looked up at her, and broken lines of Poe rushed through my mind: jumbled up lines from different verses, making sense, incredulously, once put together.

We grew in age, and love, together—I saw no Heaven, but in her eyes—and she would mark the opening skies—and laughing at her girlish wiles, I’d throw me on her throbbing breast—there was no need to speak the rest—I had no being, but in thee—have you known the passion, father?

“What are you thinking?” Paro asked.

The words were out of my mouth before I could check them. “That you were the muse Poe wrote of, and I was the poet begging forgiveness.”

Silence. Of course I had to go on and do that.

I stood up and took the tray. “Sorry, I’ll just—” Paro shushed me as she pulled me over, smoothening the creases in my shirt.

I cleared my throat and opened my mouth to speak, only to feel her finger on my lips. “When I tell you to shut up, shut up.”

“Yes, ma’am,” I mumbled.

“I love you, now go help Auntie with the table,” she said, jumping off the chair.

We’d said “I love you” to each other many times, ever since we had met in that park when we were five—so why did this feel any different?

“Love you too,” I murmured, walking into the kitchen, Paro close at my heels.

I almost tripped again.

i don't know what cbse is like because in icse we only have english and a second language but avoid taking hindi if the marking scheme is rigid. maybe where u live u speak hindi as the regional language or in your home so it might be different for you but if my school offered french i would take it without a single doubt because a) icse hindi marking scheme is BRUTAL i know only 3 people who got above 57/80 in prelims and b) french is kind of an easy language to grasp because the text is in english and many of the basic words are similar to english words especially the larger action verbs and c) (specific to me only but lets see if it helps) i am gujarati and marathi i do not come from a remotely hindi family my parents moved to my city for job opportunities at a very young age and i have grown up speaking english or gujrati in my house so much that i literally did not learn hindi speaking till 3rd grade. even now i have barely a few friends i talk to hindi in, most stuff i watch is in english and i never got good marks inhindi because i lack practice which is KEY.

another thing i would tell you to take french is because you will realistically not come across naturally french speaking people in india so the bar for that will be much lower and easier to break. i know which area of the country you live in and starting off in 8th with hindi your language scoring WILL be at a higher bar for sure than french where you'll start from the basics, and in the event that you make mistakes the examiner will grade you more leniently because you will not speak it as a natural language which in my experience is not something that hindi examiners will do. its also up to what future you want for yourself bc government jobs and stuff will be easier with hindi but for westernish or progressive jobs it's better to take french

EXACTLY LIKE THEY ARE SO LENIENT IN FRENCH AND LIKE HINDI BEING THE MOTHER TONGUE HERE THE BAR IS SO MUCH HIGHER and our sir was literally telling us today how cbse is so lenient with marks in french cause its our third language but also like. i literally cannot understand/read french that well cause during covid i did not study french at all AND AGHHHHH WHY IS THIS SO CONFUSING

#HINDI MEIN PPL DONT GET GOOD MARKS IN HIGHER CLASSES IVE HEARD but i get pretty good marks rn and #my friend's sister got 97 in boards in 10th BUT HER SISTER IS ALSO KIND OF A LANGUAGE GENIUS SO #BAHHH #u cant get full in hindi ever also #so like that will drag my whole average down if it take hindi #BUT ALSOOO ALL MY FRIENDS R TAKING HINDI #and my best friend who is one yr above me says its really not that hard #and i will have her help #and all my friends help #but in french i will only have my sister who is in college and has forgotten most of french #and google ofc #ugh

PERSONAL OPINION

I have wanted to say this since a very long time. This is about my feelings towards ICSE/ISC and CBSE Board. Also, I feel it is important to point out that whatever I say is solely based on my experiences.

Nobody asked for this, but my advice to all the 10th graders especially for all of you from India would be to not change your board after you pass 10th. Seriously, do not change your board, no matter what others say. Having said that, if you feel that the teaching style of the teachers in your current school do not align well with how you learn, or if you have any other serious issues, only then should you change your board.

Keep reading to find out why. I am going to share few experiences of mine so bear with me.

I think, the board as well as the school that you are in plays a major role in shaping your attitude towards learning in general. The board decides all of the examination pattern and evaluation schemes which is experienced usually during high school and maybe towards the end of middle school. The environment of the school that you are in has a huge influence on everything about you, be it your thoughts, etiquette, academics or extra- curriculars.

I attended a pre school. After that, I spent 12 years of my school life starting from Nursery in one of the best schools of my city. (IMO IT IS THE BEST SCHOOL). Now, a lot of you might be thinking that the fees were probably very high. Let me tell you, this school has the lowest fees in my town among all the English medium schools. Everything in this school is top notch. It is an ICSE/ISC affiliated school. I have had the best time there. Yeah, during exams I have had stressful times as well, but let's face it, almost every student faces it in school and university.

I am the 2020 Batch of ICSE, which is the COVID batch. 3 to 4 of our Board exams were cancelled midway due to COVID. I used to take lessons from private tutors (one for the Science and Mathematics group and the other for English) before Boards for more practice. One of these tutors was a CBSE Board teacher, who since the moment we met, always told me to change my Board to CBSE after 10th. (There are few schools, where teachers are commissioned for bringing students to those schools, which I got to know later). I was literally brainwashed into believing that if I take Science in ISC then I will not be able to crack any of the competitive entrance examinations for different colleges. When I was a child, I had set my mind into attending 11th and 12th in that school as well. But, so you see how bad the situation had had to be in my mind that I at the last minute decided to change my board all of of this tutor? I fucking hate all of those people who make students believe they cannot crack any exams, cannot do well in Olympiads or anything similar if they do Science from ISC. My school even provides all of the Science students NCERTs along with ISC books so that they can prepare for these exams.

Anyway, after 10th somehow ended during the pandemic I had to change my usual plans and get admission into a CBSE board school in my city. I did it. I took PCMB. Two weeks into attending classes I realised what a blunder I had made. I went to one of those BSF/ARMY/AIR FORCE Schools. Not exactly revealing which place since people, if they know me irl, might understand this is me. These schools are known for having the best discipline. Or, at least I was under that impression due to the answers that I had read on few social media sites. Needless to say, I found the NCERT books to not be beginner friendly at all (except English). I knew few concepts since I had previously learned about them till 10th. Even then, I found the NCERTs to be not-so-good. Especially when I compare it with books of ICSE/ISC Board.

I am a student who learns better with reading books compared to watching videos. But, in this situation I had to watch videos to understand even the most basic concepts. The teacher at this school were not good, at least not for me. I had attended classes in person too, but even then I couldn't understand what they were trying to explain, especially the Physics and Chemistry teachers. There was no proper Mathematics teacher in the School in 11th. So, you can imagine what our condition was like. Also, the CBSE Board is just so fucking disorganised. They bring major changes at the last moment without any prior indication. Lots of unnecessary projects and assignments. I had the worst mental health possible just because of this and that led me to worsen my academics.

My style of learning is very well complimented by my school (the previous school I was in) and ICSE/ISC Board. I should have known better and listened to my parents and school teachers before changing my Board. Right now, because of my own bloody fault, I am forever going to stay with my overly shitty academic record of 11th and 12th Grades.

So, if anyone is reading this post and is in a position where they do not belong to a CBSE Board School but they wish to take the competitive exams, please do not let people fool you into thinking that CBSE is the only Board where you can crack these exams, because they cannot be more wrong. Yes, few exams, especially NEET UG nowadays focusses on NCERT. So, buy NCERTs if your school doesn't provide and read them after your concepts are clear. Focus on concept clarity first. That can only happen at the place where you understand things the best.

Also, in my personal opinion and my style of learning, ICSE/ISC and IB Boards are where you should go if you really want to learn (mugging up and learning are two often confused with each other but entirely different things).

If any State Board student is reading this, I am not much aware of the situation there, but I'm sure it's really good. There are talented people there as well.

#icse #isc #cbse #neet #neet ug #jee #jee mains #jee advanced #iit jee #do not be offended since this is my opinion #desiblr

THE BIGGEST EXAM SENSATION IN THE COUNTRY

Board exams- a word that is often accompanied by an infusion of fear and apprehension in the mind and soul of an individual, an event in the life of every Indian student that brings with it a great amount of pressure from parental and school side, a platform to face competition for the first time and the premiere milestone in this arena of what we call life. I, having had a first hand experience of the days of the life of a tenthie, stepped into the year 2021 all set for the ICSE Class X Board Examination, ready to face whatever hurdles were thrown at me and to endure a constant insecurity about my preparation. Fresh out of my lockdown days, it took some time getting back to the regular school routine and making myself comfortable with the idea of the two semester system that the council had introduced for the board takers, owing to the extraordinary situation. The year as always began with a long lecture from our teachers about how important the following year would be, testing every bit of our patience, intellect, dedication, perseverance and all the other things required, leaving us in a bit of what felt like dilemma, that we were finally in the class everyone dreaded. All the kids, obviously to get a head start, already joined into tuition classes for all subjects but at the end of the day, it really comes down to how much you can retain and understand. The year passed by with the ever looming dread of the boards over our heads all the time, threatening and warning us. Two preboards in school made me pretty annoyed at how many times you could do the same things again and again. It turns out now when I’ve passed my class X with a whopping score of 98.4 that it was a hoax planned by our teachers. My board year was nothing like what I’d been told by people. I enjoyed it like any other and did not cut down on any of my activities or hobbies. Of course half the credit goes to my parents for not being the villains in my life and believing that I’d do well. I’m just gonna say that as long as you manage to keep a cool head and a calm aura right up to the day of the exam, trust me nothing can take those marks away from you. You need to trust the knowledge that you have, all that you’ve learnt and just give it your best shot. Coz people if you’re not the school topper or things didn’t go as planned, it’s not the end of the world please. You can plan again, try once more and you can choose your board year the way you want it to be. There are no implications on you so just work the best you can in a way that’s more convenient to you.. it does teach you a lot, somehow shapes you into a better person- someone who can handle stress when they have to. So for the people who think boards are a nightmare, guys just relax and play along because life goes on and at the end of the day, so do you.

Thanks Mom and Dad for just being there when I didn’t feel like myself at all and for not being like all the other parents, for not letting me become boring just for a board exam. By Sheryl, fresh passout from class X

I really hope this is not annoying, but I need this to get off my chest sooooo recently class Xth board results (ICSE) were declared and 38 students from our school got 95% and above.

The thing is, the results for semester examination have been declared this week in our school and my performance has dropped further than what I used to score or what I had even expected. (I'm in class X currently and will give my boards next year).

I know if I start studying from now I will perform well next year. But I'm kinda panicking actually. Don't know how to start improving.

Thanks for listening.

P. S. I've been scrolling through your account and all the advice I saw till now is pretty amazing!! Thanks for that <333333

Anon I'm so serious like you just need 2-3 months of dedicated studies to do well in 10th boards esp if you're ICSE because your portions and the questions that will come are so clear-cut.

Also dont panic like I know the pressure of those marks will start to weigh on you but genuinely if that thought of performing well is constantly in the back of your head it will fuck you up so just take it slow. Start off with your favorite subject and pick whichever chapter looks interesting. You still have lots of time for everything

Take care and you can always dm me or send me an ask if you need more help ♡

Homeschooling in India: Concept, Curriculum & More

The coronavirus outbreak ushered in what may be the world's fastest-growing trend in homeschooling. Many parents have decided to continue guiding their children for education themselves, even after schools have reopened post-pandemic and vaccines have become widely available.

Homeschooling allows parents and guardians to direct their children's overall development outside of the confines of formal education. Parents decide what and how their children are taught, and they are not required to follow any school board's curriculum. In India, parents have the option of not enrolling their children in school or withdrawing their children from school if the school's approach does not fulfil their child's needs.

The homeschooling concept in India

The notion was developed in India for children with special needs who require additional parental assistance. Many parents experimented with the idea as concerns about a rigorous schooling system arose. Other factors include concerns about bullying, child abuse, ineffective teaching methods, and children's desire to pursue careers other than academics.

Homeschooling has been supported by edtech companies that carry the curricula of various educational boards like ICSE, IGCE, Cambridge, etc. While most parents use homeschooling online platforms to assist their children understand a variety of concepts, they avoid restricting their children to the curricula.

The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE) Act of 2009 mandates that all children complete eight years of formal education, although it does not mention any other options.

Proof of competence is required for homeschooled students to be eligible for higher education in India. This can be accomplished by taking the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) exams, which provide Open Basic Education to children aged 14 and up. Children can take A, B, and C level exams, similar to Classes 3, 5, and 7, or Secondary Education Course and Senior Secondary Course exams, which are equivalent to Classes 10 and 12. They can also take the Cambridge Assessment International Examination's International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) (CAIE). Children are eligible for college entrance after passing any of these tests.

With the growing popularity of homeschooling in India, open education and learning have become more formalized to ensure that students receiving this type of education do not fall behind. Major academic institutions, both domestic and international, have joined this learning alternative. The two influential organizations linked with homeschooling in India are listed below.

The concept of open schooling

The National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS) is an open learning board in India that allows students to continue their education at home. This board enables parents to homeschool their children and complete significant exams such as class 10th and 12th exams. Students must register with the board, and the certification acquired through the board's tests is equivalent to that of any other board in the country. It provides education at many levels and places a strong emphasis on vocational learning and formal education.

The International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE) is an internationally recognized qualification for homeschooled students. It is held in the 10th grade and has many phases to assess a child's learning from the beginning to the end. Candidates can sit for the exam as private candidates and acquire a globally recognized qualification.

The admission process of learning from home

The decision to learn from home is the first step because there are further stages to take after you've decided on an educational path. The procedure for applying to learn from home in India is detailed here.

Approach a school that permits pupils to apply as a private candidate. The school should be affiliated with one of the open learning boards and be one of the open learning from home platforms and provide students the opportunity to continue their education in their choice of time.

After that, the main focus is on determining whether to teach yourself or hire a private teacher.

The child can comfortably pursue their schooling while also focusing on developing their talents in other disciplines.

Benefits of Homeschooling in India

Homeschooling or learning from home provides the room and scope to develop and foster a child's potential when the traditional education sector becomes increasingly rigid and inflexible. Some of the advantages of homeschooling that you should be aware of are listed below:

It allows parents to tailor their children's academic learning, allowing them to develop their talents.

The child has a better comprehension and stronger conceptual underpinnings due to paying more attention to details.

The kid's requirements can be considered, and milestones can be established to allow the youngster to develop at their own rate without being rushed.

It provides the flexibility and freedom to pursue one's passion and thrive at it.

Because it has become more regimented, it does not cause a child to fall behind and is comparable to any other form of education.

Parents who homeschool their children believe that as India begins to value uniqueness, homeschooling will become more popular. These homeschools are now centered in urban areas such as Pune, Mumbai, Ahmedabad, Bengaluru, Delhi, and Chennai. Make sure it's accredited by an agency recognised by the government or your state. Not all programs are accredited in every state, so check! Many schools list their accreditation status on the home page of their websites and in marketing materials. Having said that, 21K School is India’s leading online school that offers transparent quality education, regardless of the situation and location. It is a recognised and accredited K-12 School offering Indian, American and British Curriculum online for students aged 3 to 18 years in India and abroad. The online model allows learning from anywhere and hence also allows parents to evaluate their child’s progress from anywhere and at any time. Visit today to enrol.

The Legacy of ICSE Education in Dehradun: A Brief History

Dehradun, nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas, is renowned for its serene beauty, pleasant climate, and most notably, its rich educational heritage.

Among the various educational boards present in Dehradun, the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (ICSE) holds a significant place. In this article, we delve into the historical journey of ICSE school in Dehradun, exploring its evolution, impact, and enduring legacy.

The Evolution of ICSE Education:

The roots of ICSE education in Dehradun can be traced back to the early 20th century when British colonial influence played a pivotal role in shaping the educational landscape of the region.

With a focus on providing a well-rounded and rigorous academic curriculum, the ICSE board was established to cater to the educational needs of Indian students while maintaining global standards.

As Dehradun emerged as a hub for quality education, several renowned ICSE schools were established, each contributing to the board's reputation for excellence.

The emphasis on a comprehensive curriculum that encourages critical thinking, creativity, and holistic development has been a hallmark of ICSE education in Dehradun.

Impact on Dehradun's Educational Landscape:
