New Delhi: Delhi govt's flagship programme Mission Mathematics and Special Enrichment Classes has now been extended to students from Classes VI to X for the 2025-26 academic session.Aimed at strengthening mathematical understanding and addressing foundational learning gaps, the initiative builds on its earlier success and growing impact since its launch in 2022.Originally introduced to tackle poor performance in mathematics in board examinations, the programme initially targeted students of Classes VIII to X. It focused on making learning more engaging through activity-based worksheets, "Question of the Day" exercises, and structured assessments to foster concept-based and joyful learning. In June 2024, these resources were made available to Classes VI to X, and from July 7, they will be shared digitally with all schools three times a week.In a recent circular, Directorate of Education credited the initiative with contributing to improved performance in annual assessments and CBSE board exams. To build on this progress, schools have been directed to analyse the mid-term performance of Class X students to identify and address specific learning gaps. A centralised tracking module is also being developed to monitor attendance and academic growth in Mathematics more effectively.As part of the expanded programme, Special Mathematics Enrichment classes will continue to provide focused academic support to selected students. These sessions will be held in small groups of 20 to 25 students either before or after school hours. Eligibility criteria are based on previous academic performance -- students in Classes VI, IX, and X must have scored at least 50 percent with grace marks or cleared their Mathematics subject through compartment exams, while those in Classes VII and VIII qualify if they scored 40 percent or below in the previous year. Subject teachers may also nominate additional students based on classroom performance.To ensure effective implementation, schools have been permitted to appoint resource persons for these sessions, with dedicated funding already allocated.
