Class IX (2026 – 27)
Introduction:
The Mathematics curriculum for the Secondary stage has been redesigned in alignment with the
National Education Policy 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework for School Education
(NCF – SE) 2023, prioritizing deep conceptual understanding and logical reasoning. The revised m
m .co
.co
syllabus places strong emphasis on developing core mathematical competencies, including
e m
s
problem-solving, visualisation, mathematical modelling, mathematical communication,
em l a
s
computational thinking, and data analytics. The syllabus integrate Indian Knowledge System with
l a
contemporary mathematical knowledge, highlighting the rich contributions of Indian
g ag
a
mathematicians to foster a sense of pride and historical context. A deliberate shift from rote
learning to competency-based education ensures that students build deep conceptual
understanding and logical reasoning rather than mere procedural fluency. Greater emphasis has
been laid on the integration of real-life applications and experiential learning, encouraging students
to connect mathematical concepts with everyday situations and cross-disciplinary contexts.
Greater emphasis has been laid on competency based learning outcomes encouraging students
to connect mathematical concepts with everyday situations and inter-disciplinary contexts.

Continuous and holistic assessment through projects, activities, and investigations forms an
.co
integral part of the learning process, moving beyond summative examinations.
m
s e
At the secondary stage, the curriculum focuses on developing essential global mathematical
la
competencies, including mathematical representation through quantities and relations,
g
a
mathematical modelling and algorithm building, and effective mathematical communication. The
study of the number system, algebra, geometry, mensuration, statistics and probability is designed
to build a strong foundation for higher education while enhancing functional life skills. The
curriculum thus aims to build rich mathematical learning frameworks not only for higher academic
pursuits but also for the practical demands of life in a rapidly changing, data-driven world.
Objectives: The broad objectives of teaching Mathematics at the secondary stage are to help the
learners to:
m
m
develop logical thinking, critical reasoning, and a structured approach to problem-solving;
.co
.co
build the ability to recognise, analyse, and solve diverse problems with confidence and
s e m
s em adaptability;
g l a
la a
communicate mathematical ideas effectively using appropriate language, symbols, and
ag
representations;
appreciate the beauty, history, and real-life relevance of Mathematics as a discipline;
connect mathematical concepts to fields such as Science, Technology, Engineering, and
Economics;
engage in both collaborative and independent mathematical exploration and learning;
develop habits of precision, accuracy, and logical consistency in mathematical work;
build confidence to explore, experiment, and grow in mathematical understanding without
fear of failure.
