CBSE allows Class 10 maths basic students to opt for regular math in class 11
Nagpur: The Central Board for Secondary Education (CBSE) has decided to continue allowing students of Class 10 to pursue regular maths (subject code 041) in Class 11, even if they opted for the simpler version of the subject called maths (Basic) in the Class 10 board exam. The maths (Basic) subject was introduced from the 2020 board exams for students who did not wish to pursue maths at higher levels. This meant they could not opt for engineering courses which required maths at Class 11 and 12. However, ever since the board introduced this policy, students who opted for maths (Basic) in Class 10 were allowed to pursue regular maths in Class 11 through special relaxation in the scheme. CBSE has cited 'pandemic and other issues' as the reason that this relaxation kept getting extended every year. Now, the policy relaxation will continue until further notice, meaning students won't have to wait for year-end circulars from CBSE to confirm whether or not they will get the benefit. CBSE's controller of examination, Sanyam Bhardwaj, however, requested principals to ensure that students have the aptitude to pursue regular maths at Class 11. CBSE's latest communication stated that this policy relaxation will cease once the new scheme of studies is implemented "in pursuance to the recommendations of NCF-SE". From the 2025-26 academic session onwards, students who appeared for Maths (Basic), subject code 241, in Class 10 can now apply for maths (041) in Class 11.
