The choice of one or more of these skill modules is up to the schools and students. Students can enroll in the classes online as well, and these skill modules will also be made available in online self-learning mode. These modules will be evaluated at the school level, ideally using a project-based approach. The school is responsible for evaluating students in accordance with the standards set by the board. The corresponding hobby groups may provide these modules (if any). Any skill module may be chosen by the schools and students in either Class 6, Class 7, or Class 8.

“The Scheme of Studies for the students opting for skill subjects in classes IX-X has been amended as follows: If a student studies three compulsory subjects (i.e., Science, Mathematics, and Social Science) and also chooses to study a Skill subject (offered as sixth optional subject), then the aggregate of best five including two languages (Subject 1 & 2) and the best three (from subject 3, 4, 5 & 6, including Skill subject) can be considered,” CBSE stated in its circular.
