CBSE Mandates ‘Composite Skill Labs’ in Schools

The Central Board of Secondary instruction (CBSE) has issued a directive ordering the creation of ‘Composite Skill Labs’ in all affiliated schools to enhance skill instruction in accordance with the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF-SE). Schools are directed to build up either a single 600-square-foot Composite Skill Lab for grades 6-12 or two separate 400-square-foot labs—one for grades 6-10 and the other for grades 11–12.

The notification specifies that a fully equipped Composite Skill Lab is mandatory for all schools seeking new affiliations with CBSE. Schools already affiliated must set up these labs within three years.

The NCF-SE emphasizes the need for schools to create opportunities for students to engage in hands-on tasks and projects linked to their selected skills. The establishment of well-equipped skill labs and vocational training centres is crucial to providing an environment conducive to practical learning and skill development.
