History of ICSE
The Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) was established in 1958 by the inter-state Board for Anglo-Indian Education. In 1973, the board was renamed the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examination(CISCE) and was recognized by the Indian government as a national board of education. Since then, the CISCE has been conducting the ICSE examination for students in class 10th (since 1970), the Indian School Certificate(ICS) examination for students in the 12th class(since 1977), and the Certificate of Vocational Education(since 1996). The National Level Sports and Games were introduced by CICSE in 24 Disciplines. Its headquarters is in New Delhi.
Full Form of ICSE
The full Form of ICSE is the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education. The ICSE (Indian Certificate of Secondary Education) is one of India’s most recognized boards for school education, established in 1958. It provides schooling from 1st to 10th standard and is managed by CISCE (Council of Indian School Certificate Examination), a non-governmental education board. This council is responsible for conducting examinations at the end of the 10th standard. There are around 2300 CISCE-affiliated schools in India.
With an aim to build analytical skills and infuse practical knowledge among students, the ICSE involves a more detailed study and a well-structured and more comprehensive syllabus relative to other boards. Moreover, the curriculum proposed is more inclined towards application-based knowledge of theoretical concepts and gives more weightage to real-life ideas for an in-depth understanding of the subjects.
