Three Subjects. One Strong Foundation.
SIO assesses the three core subjects that build every student's academic future — Mathematics, Science and English. The syllabus is designed in line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, focusing on conceptual clarity, real understanding and application rather than rote memorisation, so preparation strengthens everyday school learning instead of adding pressure.
Question papers are prepared class-wise for Class 1 to Class 10 and are open to students of all boards and curricula — CBSE, ICSE, state boards, IB, IGCSE and others. Use the class selector below to see the exact topics for your class.
