CISCE has clarified that this decision has been taken post consulting with experts. It said, “syllabus of various subjects is being reduced after consultation with subject experts, keeping in mind not to compromise the quality of education”. In a statement released by the board for all schools affiliated to ISC and ICSE board, Gerry Arathoon, Chief Executive and Secretary mentioned that “CISCE has initiated the process of reviewing the syllabus of various subjects at ICSE and ISC levels specifically for the Examination year, 2020.”

CISCE's intention was to identify those chapters or topics that could be eliminated without reducing the quality of the content.
