But now teachers and students have got familiar with the new ways. What is pushing ‘Change’ even further is the new National Education Policy (NEP) of 2020. The intention of shifting from rote learning to competency-based development will prove beneficial to the coming generations; and in turn, to the country.

To score well in Semester-2, students need to start by acquiring the latest and most relevant study material. The focus should be on conceptual clarity rather than mugging up facts. Students should find out their preparation level by conducting regular self-assessments and practicing questions from this question bank. Breaking down the syllabus in a systematic way right from the beginning will help students learn better and secure a high score.

CISCE Circular 2021-22

Chief Executive & Secretary Gerry Arathoon M.A., B.Ed. August 6, 2021 Dear Principal, Subject : CISCE’s Modified Plan for Assessment at the ICSE (Class X) and ISC (Class XII) Levels for the Academic Year 2021-22. In view of the continuing pandemic situation in the country and the disruption in educational activities brought about due to extended lockdowns, and the various alternate modes of syllabus transaction that need to be adopted, due to closure of schools, the CISCE had carried out an extensive exercise of Syllabus review. As a part of this exercise, syllabi for various subjects at the ICSE and ISC levels specifically for Classes X and XII, for the Examination Year 2022 were examined by subject experts to identify portions which may be reduced, without compromising on the quality of content. This Reduced Syllabus for the ICSE (Class X) and ISC (Class XII) Year 2022 Examinations is available on the CISCE website under the PUBLICATIONS section. In addition to reduction of Syllabus at the ICSE (Class X) and ISC (Class XII) levels, the CISCE will follow a different method of conducting Examinations for the Academic Year 2021-22. The details of this modified Assessment Plan for ICSE (Class X) and ISC (Class XII) levels for the Academic Year 2021-22 are given below: Division of the Academic Session 2021-22 into Two Semesters • The Academic Session 2021-22 will be divided into TWO Semesters, with approximately 50% of the syllabus being covered in each Semester. • The Reduced Syllabus for ICSE (Class X) and ISC (Class XII) for the Examination Year 2022 has accordingly been bifurcated, and Units/subunits to be covered in each Semester specified clearly. • The Semester-wise Bifurcated Theory Syllabus for Classes X and XII is available on the CISCE website under PUBLICATIONS.

• The question papers for each Semester Examination will be of 80/100 marks for ICSE and 70/80 marks for ISC, as per the maximum marks currently allocated for the Theory component of the subjects. However, the weightage of marks (for each of the Semesters) to be finally used for computation of the Board results would be brought down to half. Details pertaining to the conduct of the Semester-wise Examinations will be shared with the Schools in Due Course. PRACTICAL/PROJECT WORK at the ISC Level and INTERNAL ASSESSMENT at the ICSE Level • In addition to the Examinations conducted at the end of each of the two Semesters during the academic year 2021-22, candidates will also be assessed on Practical/Project Work at the ISC level. The Mark weightage of the same remains unchanged (Refer to ISC Reduced Syllabus for the Year 2022 Examination) • If the situation permits, the ISC Practicals will be conducted as per Option 1 (Visiting Examiners set the Practical Question Papers based on detailed guidelines and instructions from the CISCE). In case the situation is not conducive due to the pandemic, and candidates are unable to come to their respective schools to take the Practical Examination, Option 2 (Online/Virtual mode) will be exercised. • Similarly, in addition to the Semester Examinations conducted by the CISCE during the academic year, candidates will also be assessed on Internal Assessment at the ICSE level.
