“The CISCE has decided to postpone the ICSE and ISC year 2021-2022 semester 1 examinations due to reasons beyond our control,” the board’s Chief Executive and Secretary Gerry Arathoon said.

Similar to the Central Board Of Secondary Education (CBSE), The CISCE has divided the 2021-22 board exams into two semesters. The CISCE had earlier said first semester exams will be online and second semester exams will be in online or offline mode, depending on the COVID-19 situation in the country.

The question papers for each semester examination will be of 80/100 marks for ICSE and 70/80 marks for ISC. The board has reduced the syllabi due to Covid situation.
