CBSE is conducting board exams 2022 in two terms. While CBSE Term-1 exams 2021 have been concluded in Nov-Dec, the board is yet to release CBSE Term-2 exam dates. 

CBSE 10th deleted syllabus

CBSE Board Exams 2022: The Central Board of Secondary Education decided to conduct board exams 2022 in two terms from the current academic session, i.e. 2021-22. While the board has already concluded CBSE Term-1 board exams 2021 in the month of November and December, CBSE Term-2 exams dates for Class 10, 12 are yet to be released. Earlier, considering the ongoing pandemic situation, the education ministry announced its decision to reduce CBSE syllabus for CBSE 10th and CBSE 12th including Class 9 and Class 11 by 30% for the academic session 2020-21. Considering the ongoing pandemic situation and lockdown, and the loss of classroom teaching time it is creating, CBSE reduced the syllabus of classes 9 to 12 with the help of suggestions from NCERT. However, the reduced syllabus was only effective for the current 2020-21 session.

For the session 2021-22, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has restored the deleted portions of Class 9, 10, 11 and 12 syllabus. CBSE has released the curriculum for students of class 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th for the 2021-22 sessions. It is likely, the CBSE has made some reductions and changes in the syllabus of the current year as well. Students may visit the official website of CBSE, i.e. cbseacademic.nic.in as the board has uploaded the curriculum and syllabus for students between Class 9 and 12.  

The official notice regarding CBSE Syllabus reads, "The Board annually provides curriculum for classes IX to XII for a given academic year containing academic content, syllabus for examinations with learning outcomes, pedagogical practices, and assessment guidelines. 2. CBSE has advised schools to adopt learning outcomes prescribed by NCERT annexed with the curriculum of each subject for classes IX-X to implement Competency Based Questions. The learning outcomes are long-term outcomes of a school system that are expected to accomplish through the entire educational process. 3. The Board has also provided Teachers Energized Resources which delineate learning outcomes by restating them into more precise and measurable learning objectives teachers need to use in their routine teaching in classrooms. Teachers are required to write down their own learning objectives in line with learning outcomes of NCERT to meet the requirement of their unique class."
