Read the curriculum guideWhat is CBSE Computational Thinking and AI (CT&AI)?
CT&AI is a CBSE subject for Classes 3–8 from session 2026-27, introduced by Circular Acad-15/2026. It teaches computational thinking (pattern recognition, decomposition, abstraction and algorithmic thinking) and, from Class 6, the basics of artificial intelligence.
How many hours does CT&AI get each year?
Classes 3–5 get 50 hours a year, taught inside Maths and The World Around Us. Classes 6–8 get 100 hours: 40 for computational thinking, 20 for AI and 40 for two projects.
Is there a board exam for CT&AI?
No. CT&AI has no board exam. Schools assess it through written CT tests and puzzles, group activities, practical exams and projects (Classes 6–8), reflections and a teacher observation journal.
Who teaches CT&AI in school?
In Classes 3–5, Maths and other subject teachers add CT puzzles to their lessons. In Classes 6–8, subject teachers teach the CT part and the computer teacher teaches the AI chapters and guides the projects.
Where can I download the CBSE CT&AI handbooks?
CBSE publishes a student handbook and a teacher handbook for each class from 3 to 8 as free PDFs on its official CT&AI page at cbseacademic.nic.in/ct-ai.html.
