The Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations (CISCE) has released the official examination timetable for the ICSE and ISC board exams scheduled for 2027, providing students and educational institutions with essential planning information well in advance.
Class 12 students appearing for the ISC examination will begin their board assessments on February 9, 2027, while Class 10 students enrolled in the ICSE programme will commence their examinations from February 15, 2027. The staggered schedule allows the examining body to manage logistics and ensure adequate invigilation across its network of affiliated schools across India and internationally.
The early announcement of the examination timetable is intended to enable schools to plan their academic calendars, conduct mock examinations, and prepare students adequately for the board assessments. Students and parents can now factor the examination dates into their academic planning and revision schedules.
CISCE conducts examinations for schools across India and in several overseas locations. The board has historically maintained its examination schedule in early February, aligning with the academic calendar framework followed by most schools affiliated with the council.
