Academics - ISC
Key Features of ISC Education
Comprehensive Curriculum
The ISC curriculum offers a wide range of subjects in humanities, sciences, commerce, and vocational fields. Students typically choose a combination of core and elective subjects based on their interests and career goals.
Emphasis on English
English is a compulsory subject and plays a central role in the ISC curriculum. The exam includes both English Language and Literature, ensuring a strong foundation in communication and comprehension skills.
Assessment Style
ISC exams are known for testing analytical and critical thinking rather than rote learning. The papers are designed to assess students’ understanding, application of concepts, and reasoning skills.
Balanced Evaluation
ISC uses a combination of internal assessments (projects, practicals) and final board exams. This gives students a holistic assessment based on their year-round performance as well as their exam results.
International Recognition
ISC qualifications are recognized by many universities in India and abroad, especially in countries like the UK, USA, Canada, and Australia. ISC graduates often find it easier to get admission to international institutions.
Skill Development
In addition to academics, ISC encourages co-curricular activities and the development of skills such as leadership, teamwork, and creativity.
