The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) has unveiled the Parenting Calendar for the academic session 2026–27 through a live event on its official YouTube channel. CBSE launched this programme in the academic session 2025–26 with the aim of strengthening the partnership between parents and schools and promoting holistic student well-being.

The CBSE Parenting Calendar 2026-27 features improved engagement strategies between schools and parents, teacher-led activities, and targeted psycho-social initiatives to support students’ emotional, social, and academic development, while addressing the challenges parents face in a rapidly changing environment.

“By fostering a strong and collaborative partnership between parents and educators, the Parenting Calendar aims to cultivate a supportive ecosystem that nurtures students’ academic progress, emotional resilience, and social well-being,” the Board stated in an official notice.

In line with the vision of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, the calendar includes dedicated sections on inclusion, which fosters awareness, sensitivity, and equitable practices for diverse learners, and coping with changes, which helps parents and students adjust to curriculum changes and evolving academic expectations.

Furthermore, the calendar features a section on Parenting Workshops that has been significantly strengthened by incorporating a developmental perspective on parenting, enabling schools to design age-appropriate and contextually relevant engagement programmes, CBSE added.

The Calendar is intended to encourage meaningful parent–child interactions, reinforce the home-school partnership, and serve as a practical resource for parents to actively support their child’s developmental journey, the Board stated. Overall, the initiative aspires to build a nurturing, inclusive, and supportive ecosystem that fosters the holistic development, well-being, and resilience of every learner.

The live launch event was attended by school principals, teachers, counsellors, wellness educators, and parents, who participated to understand the objectives and implementation of the Parenting Calendar. It is now available on the CBSE website, cbse.gov.in.

CBSE has urged all affiliated schools and stakeholders to actively adopt and implement the Parenting Calendar, thereby helping to create a nurturing, inclusive, and supportive educational ecosystem for students.
