The CBSE's School Curriculum gets its lead from the National Curriculum Framework (NCF 2005) and New Education Policy NEP 2020. The paramount guiding principles as proposed by NCF-2005 and NEP 2020 are

• connecting knowledge to life outside the school,
• ensuring that learning is shifts away from rote methods,
• enriching the curriculum to provide for the overall development of children rather than remain textbook centric,
• making examinations more flexible and integrated into classroom life and,
• nurturing an overriding identity informed by caring concerns within the democratic polity of the country.
