CBSE · NURSERY TO CLASS XII · DELHI NCR
The subjects, the NCERT books and how primary children are assessed — no board exams, plenty of activity.
In CBSE primary classes children study two languages, mathematics, the world around them (environmental studies), art, and health and physical education. Assessment is continuous and activity-based — there are no board exams. NCERT has been introducing new textbooks under the National Curriculum Framework 2023, class by class.

Teachers watch and record progress through the year — oral work, projects, worksheets and portfolios — rather than one big exam. Report cards describe what a child can do, not just marks.
There are no board exams. Schools assess children continuously through class work, projects and short tests.
Rules change each year: check the official notice for your year. Mayo's own figures come from the school's records.
