The board prepares the syllabus for schools affiliated with it. Their main academic focus is on medical care,engineering and telemarketing. Kerala is the first state in India to achieve 100% literacy rate.

The whole schooling structure is divided into kindergarten(Lkg and UKG), LP(lower primary,classes/standard 1–4), UP(upper primary,classes/standard 5–7),(H.S)High School(classes/standard 8–10) and Higher Secondary (+1 equals 11th class/standard and +2 equals 12th class/standard). Usually the whole system of KG,LP,UP and HS are collectively referred as High School. Students completing this complete course(12 years including KGs, which is optional* and otherwise 10 years of education) will be awarded with School Leaving Certificate abbreviated as SSLC. Based on the results in SSLC students are enrolled into Higher Secondary Education(HSE)which was previously known as pre-degree and was conducted in colleges. Now HSE is integrated to the school system and most educational institution now offer classes from LKG to +2. Higher secondary offers a wide range of subjects according to the candidate's preference.After completing +2 students were awarded with HSE certificate which is indeed a passport to degree and similar courses.

History

The importance and antiquity of education in Kerala is underscored by the state's ranking as among the most literate in the country. The local dynastic precursors of modern-day Kerala made significant contributions to the progress on education in Kerala. There were many sabha mathams that imparted Vedic knowledge. Apart from kalaris, which taught martial arts, there were village schools run by Ezhuthachans or Asans. The history of western education in Kerala can be traced to Christian missionaries who set up a number of schools and colleges. These institutions played significant roles in shaping the course of education in Kerala.

Kerala's achievements in social development and quality of life are, no doubt, inspiring and encouraging. The state has achieved a human development index comparable to the developed countries of the World. Prof. Amartya Sen has attributed these achievements largely to the priority which the state has accorded to high literacy among all Indian states and education for a long time. The society attaches so much importance to education that the school in Kerala is really the nucleus of the social microcosm. Better education kindles the aspirations of the people and the main concern is on how to improve the quality of education. www.education.kerala.gov.in is the official website of the General Education Department of Government of Kerala. The department administers school education from pre-primary level to the secondary level and also teacher training.

A discussion about Kerala education scenario brings forth the question, about the growth and development of the education profile of Kerala. Modern Education in Kerala started several decades back with the declaration of the Maharaja of Travancore in 1844 that ‘those trained in English School would be given preference in Public Services’. Raja’s Free School was established by Government in 1834 to provide English Education. In the erstwhile Cochin State 33 Vernacular schools were established in 1818. The English education taken care by Rev. Dawson, he opened English school at Mattancherry in 1818. Later more number of English Schools opened at Thrissur, Thrippunithura and Ernakulam. In 1868, the first batch was presented for the Matriculation examination.

The local dynastic precursors of modern-day Kerala sponsored sabha mathams that imparted Vedic knowledge. Apart from kalaris , which taught martial arts, there were village schools run by Ezhuthachans or Asans.

Kerala school of astronomy and mathematics . The Kerala school of astronomy and mathematics was a school of mathematics and astronomy founded by Madhava of Sangamagrama in Kerala , South India, which included among its members: Parameshvara, Neelakanta Somayaji, Jyeshtadeva, Achyuta Pisharati, Melpathur Narayana Bhattathiri and Achyuta Panikkar. The school flourished between the 14th and 16th centuries and the original discoveries of the school seems to have ended with Narayana Bhattathiri (1559-1632). In attempting to solve astronomical problems, the Kerala school independently created a number of important mathematics concepts. Their most important results-series expansion for trigonometric functions-were described in Sanskrit verse in a book by Neelakanta called Tantrasangraha, and again in a commentary on this work, called Tantrasangraha-vakhya, of unknown authorship. The theorems were stated without proof, but proofs for the series for sine, cosine, and inverse tangent were provided a century later in the work Yuktibhasa (c.1500-c.1610), written in Malayalam, by Jyesthadeva, and also in a commentary on Tantrasangraha. Their work, completed two centuries before the invention of calculus in Europe, provided what is now considered the first example of a power series (apart from geometric series). However, they did not formulate a systematic theory of differentiation and integration, nor is there any direct evidence of their results being transmitted outside Kerala

The history of western-style education in Kerala can be traced to the establishment of numerous schools and colleges by Christian missionaries.

Present Situation

Schools and colleges are now largely run by the government, private trusts, or individuals. Each school is affiliated with either the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE), the Central Board for Secondary Education (CBSE), or the Kerala State Education Board. English is the language of instruction in most private schools, while government run schools offer English or Malayalam as the medium of instruction. After 10 years of secondary schooling, students typically enroll at Higher Secondary School in one of the three streams-liberal arts, commerce or science. Upon completing the required coursework, students can enroll in general or professional degree programmes. Kerala topped the Education Development Index (EDI) among 21 major states in India in year 2006-2007. EDI is calculated using indicators such as access, infrastructure, teachers and outcome.
