National Council for Educational Research and Training (NCERT) is introducing new syllabi and textbooks for Grade 6 in all subjects as recommended in National Curricular Framework for School Education (NCF-SE) 2023.

For Grade 6, a new time allocation and timetable as suggested for the middle stage in National Curricular Framework for School Education (NCF-SE) 2023 will be implemented to address the needs in every subject area
