The Indian Certificate of Secondary Education ensures a general education without any diversification of studies as all candidates are required to take Six subjects and Socially Useful Productive Work (SUPW).
Group I subjects are compulsory and students must Select One Second Language from Group One, TWO from Group II and ONE from Group III.
English is a compulsory subject.
All students in Grades X and XII, regardless of the subjects chosen, must fulfil the Socially Useful Productive Work (SUPW) grade to obtain a pass certificate. The nature of this programme may involve field trips and community service, which are organised by the school.
