When it comes to your child's education, most parents are faced with the dilemma of choosing the board of education with the maximum advantages for their ward. India has a wide array of education boards to offer its students, such as state boards, central boards --CBSE (Central Board of Secondary Education), ISC (Indian School Certificate Examinations), and international boards -- such as (IB) International Baccalaureate, IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education).

Parents naturally want to choose the right board of education for their child, one that plays an integral part in the student's future. In India, CBSE is one of the better-recognized education boards along with ISC.

Both the boards cover similar subjects but the major difference mainly lies in the syllabus, pattern of learning and scope of knowledge.Jain Heritage School, Bangalore, one of the best CBSE schools in the city, follows the CBSE board. CBSE is considered as the primary board of education in India at the school level. The board also conducts the AIEEE Examination which is one of the most imperative entrance examinations for admission to different undergraduate engineering courses.

The CBSE has been chosen by Jain Heritage School, Bangalore as it is beneficial for the holistic development of a child through an integrated curricular approach.
