The ICSE council has sought feedback from school heads on teaching, coverage of reduced syllabus and Classes X and XII assessments.

The council sent a circular to school heads on Thursday, saying the feedback is important as it has started preparations for the 2021 exams.

The heads have to answer two questionnaires related to students appearing for the ICSE and ISC exams in 2021 and submit them online by November 11.

In July, the ICSE council had asked schools to answer two questionnaires regarding the status of online teaching, coverage of the reduced syllabus and assessment and evaluation.

Thursday’s circular was addressed by Gerry Arathoon, the chief executive and secretary of the council.

The council has reduced the syllabuses of Classes X and XII twice since July because of “significant loss” of teaching hours from March.

“Since the board exams are close, the council is naturally concerned… coordinators will collect the data from teachers to answer the questionnaires about the board classes,” a city school principal said.
