What it lines up with
One resource can sit differently against different curricula. Each row below says how strong the connection is and whose claim it is.
Mapped to the syllabusTutor’s assessment
Tutor mapped this against a named syllabus version. It is our reading, not theirs.
ScienceNamed without enough alongside it for us to look it up — a subject needs a programme before the catalogue can give it the board’s own title.
Could not be matched to the curriculum catalogue: Cbse, 10. That is a fault in our records rather than in the resource.
Mapped against 2026-27 by Tutor learning library, initial curation on 2026-08-31. Asserted without reading the syllabus document line by line. Matched at topic level — light, electricity, magnetism, chemical reactions. The CBSE syllabus document itself was not read line by line.
