Nagaland Board of School Education (NBSE) has informed all the institutions registered under NBSE that the National Education Policy 2020 emphasises on reducing the content load and providing opportunities for experiential learning with creative mindset.
In this regard, NBSE has rationalised topics in the core subjects of Social Sciences, Mathematics and Science for classes IX and X in line with National Council of Education Research and Training (NCERT) rationalised syllabus.
The board informed that rationalised syllabus would be effective from the academic session 2022.
Contents of the syllabus/textbooks have been rationalised/dropped as follows: content which are easily accessible to students and can be self-learnt; content which is irrelevant in the present context; difficulty level and content overlapping with similar content included in other subjects. All heads of institutions have been requested to note the change and disseminate it to responsible subject teachers so that they could instruct and guide students properly.
The rationalised syllabus will be hosted in the board’s portal at www.nbsenl.edu.in and shared in the district WhatsApp groups.
Further, rationalised topics or contents will not be assessed in the final examinations, NBSE informed.
