CBSE's 3-language rule to be implemented in Class 6 from 2026-27?
India Today
As per leading media reports, CBSE is set to introduce the NEP 2020 three-language formula from the 2026-27 session, beginning in Class 6. English will be treated as a foreign language, and students may eventually have to appear for a third language paper in Class 10.
The Central Board of Secondary Education is set to roll out the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 recommendations on the three-language formula from the 2026-27 academic session, as per leading media reports.
Under the proposed structure, students in Class 6 will study three languages. At least two of these must be Indian languages. English will be treated as a “foreign” language under this framework.
For schools already teaching English in Class 6, it will count as that one foreign language, and two Indian languages will need to be taught alongside it.
Reports suggest that if a school offers another foreign language, such as French or German, as the third language, it must still ensure that two Indian languages are part of the combination.
The move is in line with the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCFSE) 2023, which recommends that the third language be introduced in the middle stage, covering Classes 6 to 8.
The framework states that learning an unfamiliar third language requires more time and practice. It emphasises that adequate classroom hours should be allocated to help students build basic communication skills.
