CBSE has announced orientation programme for schools: The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has announced an orientation programme for schools participating in its Hub and Spoke School Model, aimed at strengthening collaborative learning practices and enhancing student well-being across affiliated institutions. The programme will be held on December 26, 2025, in Jaipur, Rajasthan.

The orientation follows CBSE’s earlier introduction of the Hub and Spoke School Model, a framework designed to encourage structured collaboration, optimal resource sharing, and mentoring among schools. The Board said the programme seeks to improve awareness, ensure effective implementation, and maximise the benefits of the model for students.

Venue, schedule and participants

According to CBSE, the orientation programme will run from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm at Bhartiya Vidya Bhavan's Vidyashram, Opposite OTS, KM Munshi Marg, Jaipur (302015). Participants have been advised to report by 9:30 am to complete pre-programme formalities.

The programme is open to Principals, Vice Principals, Counsellors and Wellness Teachers, with Hub and Spoke schools directed to nominate at least two representatives, preferably from the school leadership and counselling teams. The focus, CBSE noted, is on strengthening counselling frameworks and coordinated student support systems.

Objectives of the programme

CBSE outlined multiple objectives for the orientation, including familiarising schools with the Hub and Spoke Model’s framework and guidelines, promoting collaborative learning and resource sharing, and improving institutional coordination. The programme will also emphasise capacity building, best practice dissemination, and professional networking among school principals and coordinators.

Registration and important instructions

CBSE has clarified that there is no registration fee for the programme. Interested participants must register online, and confirmation emails will be issued to selected attendees. Travel and accommodation expenses will be borne by the participants.

While Hub and Spoke schools have been prioritised, other CBSE-affiliated schools have also been encouraged to register. Their participation will be confirmed on a first-come, first-served basis, subject to availability.
