What is the minimum age to appear in 10th class ICSE/ISC Board affiliated schools? As my son's date of birth is 09/05/2007. Will he be allowed or able to appear in 10th class ICSE Board Exams?

As per the guidlines of central board of secondary education (CBSE) the minimum age to appear in the 10th board exam is 14 years , as of 31st december of the year of examination .

ICSE has not declared any minimum age for the admission to 10th class. However it follows the minimum age requirements of the concerned State/UT in which the school is located.
Many of the states mentioned 15 years as the minimum age for the ICSE /ICE.
As your son will be 13 year old in this academic year so he will not be eligible for admission in academic year 2019.

The age criteria to appear for the 10th board examination is not decided by the board and it is the sole responsibility of the Directorate of State Education Board to declare the minimum age criteria.

So, kindly visit the official website to get detail information about the same.
