Know the history of CBSE

According to the CBSE board website, the Uttar Pradesh Board of High School and Intermediate Education was the first board established in 1921. Rajputana, Central India and Gwalior came under its jurisdiction. But in 1929, the then Government of India suggested setting up a joint board for all the regions which was named Board of High School and Intermediate Education Rajputana. It included Ajmer, Merwara, Central India and Gwalior.

The board made rapid progress and expansion at the secondary education level, as a result of which the level and nature of education in its institutions improved. But due to the establishment of state universities and state boards in different parts of the country, only Ajmer, Bhopal and later Vindhya Pradesh remained under its jurisdiction.

This led to organizational amendments in the Board in 1952 which expanded its jurisdiction and changed its name to Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) Later, the Board was reorganized again in 1962. The main objectives of the Board were to provide more effective support to educational institutions, and to be responsive to the educational needs of students whose parents were Central Government employees and held frequently transferable posts.
