		What is ICSE? The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations, Delhi is the premier educational Board in the country. It holds an annual examination known as the Indian Certificate for Secondary Education (ICSE) examination for the Xth Grade students. The ICSE syllabus has a distinct advantage over others. The ICSE curriculum prepares the child for higher studies and competitive exams. ICSE's flexibility allows the student to opt for subjects of his/her interest.

The marks are complemented by compulsory project work that requires the students to explore the subject and write his or her own understanding of it.
