Examination Board

The Examination Board

The success of educational innovation is in many ways dependent on the examination system that the school follows. GURUKUL is affiliated to the Council for Indian School Certificate (CISCE), one of the two recognised and approved All India Boards of Secondary Education. This choice will enable the school to create a balanced curricular plan for students of the senior classes to develop an application based, conceptual understanding of the subjects they study in school. A balanced curricular plan also encourages students to excel in their areas of study and develop a competitive advantage for admission in desirable institutions of higher learning and academic universities.

The CISCE conducts examinations at the end of Class X and Class XII. referred to as the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) and the Indian School Certificate (ISC), respectively. The ISC Examination has bee granted equivalence to the British School leaving certificates by UCAS, a national admissions and accreditation agency in the UK. This implies that student with grades 1, 2 and 3 may be eligible for direct admission to some UK universities without appearing for a separate A-level examination or bridge courses.

The ISC syllabus encourages students to consider a wide variety of career oriented paths. The Board encourages school to offer a variety of subjects.

The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations was established in 1958 by the University of Cambridge Local Examinations Syndicate.

The Delhi Education Act of 1973 recognises the Council as a body conducting public examinations. The ISC examination is recognized by the Inter Universities Board for entry into Bachelor's degree courses.
