DeepSchool Announces New Support Tools for CBSE’s 2025–26 Skill-Based Learning Framework for Classes 6–8
CBSE makes skill education mandatory for Classes 6–8. DeepSchool announces tools to help students adapt with clarity and confidence.
New Delhi, India — 1 Dec, 2025
DeepSchool, the adaptive learning platform focused on concept mastery and personalised practice, today announced a set of academic support tools designed to help students, teachers, and families navigate the Central Board of Secondary Education’s (CBSE) newly mandated Skill-Based Learning Framework for Classes 6–8, which becomes compulsory from the 2025–26 academic year.
Earlier this week, CBSE outlined sweeping changes to middle-school learning, requiring schools to implement 110 hours of structured skill-based activities, including hands-on projects, basic machine work, environmental management tasks, and community-service oriented assignments. Assessments will now include activity books, teacher observations, viva/presentations, and student portfolios, marking a significant shift away from rote learning and textbook-heavy instruction.
Speaking on the development, a DeepSchool spokesperson said:
“CBSE’s new framework is a strategic step toward shaping well-rounded learners who can think, build, analyse, and apply knowledge beyond examinations. As schools dedicate more classroom time to hands-on skill education, it becomes essential for students to strengthen their academic foundations through consistent, personalised practice. That is where DeepSchool steps in.”
New DeepSchool Support Tools Aligned with CBSE 2025–26 Skill Framework
DeepSchool has launched the following enhancements to complement the new CBSE structure:
1. Concept Reinforcement Through Adaptive Practice
With schools allocating more time to skill-based activities, DeepSchool offers short, high-impact academic sessions that reinforce Math, Science, and English fundamentals. These adaptive sessions help students retain conceptual clarity while adjusting to the new curriculum balance.
2. Competency-Based Question Banks
DeepSchool now includes case-based, data-driven, multi-step, and application-oriented question formats—mirroring the competency expectations in CBSE assessments. This helps students build analytical thinking alongside hands-on skills.
3. Personalised Micro-Learning Cycles
To help students manage academic load alongside project hours, DeepSchool offers 10–15-minute personalised cycles that identify individual gaps and strengthen weak areas without overwhelming the learner.
4. Real-Time Feedback and Performance Insights
Effective skill-based learning requires reflection. DeepSchool provides real-time feedback for every question, enabling students to understand their mistakes and build mastery progressively.
5. Parent View: Tracking Academic Understanding While Schools Focus on Skills
Parents can monitor concept-wise performance, accuracy trends, and progress across subjects—ensuring academic strength is maintained even as the school timetable shifts toward project work.
Addressing the Real Concern: Balanced Learning
With the introduction of mandatory skill education, many schools—especially those with constrained infrastructure—are expected to face challenges in providing consistent project-based experiences. DeepSchool’s adaptive practice system ensures that students’ academic fundamentals remain strong regardless of school variations.
“Skill-based learning shapes future-ready students, but academic consistency remains equally important,” the spokesperson added. “DeepSchool bridges this gap by providing families with a reliable, personalised academic partner that complements hands-on learning in schools.”
Availability
The new support tools are now available to all DeepSchool users across India. Schools interested in integrated solutions or partnerships may contact DeepSchool for institutional access and customised implementation support.
