Is AI Compulsory in CBSE? For Classes 3 to 8, yes: since the 2026-27 session, computational thinking and AI literacy are mandatory under CBSE Circular Acad-15/2026, with internal assessment only. Classes 9 to 12 still treat AI (Code 417) as optional, though it is set to become board-examined from 2029 for the first cohort. SSD Prayas, a Bhopal-based AI education company, helps schools make sense of these rules and put them into practice. We train teachers, deliver hands-on, project-based classes in your existing computer lab and certify students from Class 3 to 12. Talk to us to prepare your school.
