What is SEBA? Assam Board of Secondary Education Guide (2026)

SEBA, the Board of Secondary Education, Assam, was the state body responsible for regulating secondary education and conducting the HSLC examination for Class 9 and 10 students across Assam. In 2024, the Assam State School Education Board Act brought SEBA and AHSEC under a single umbrella called ASSEB (Assam State School Education Board), with SEBA continuing its work as ASSEB Division-I.

Full Form and Meaning of SEBA

SEBA is the short form of the Board of Secondary Education, Assam, established under the Assam Secondary Education Act, 1961. Headquartered at Bamunimaidam, Guwahati, the board has historically supervised secondary schools, prescribed textbooks and syllabi, registered students, and conducted the HSLC (High School Leaving Certificate) examination for Class 10 in the state.

SEBA to ASSEB: What Changed for Students

Under the Assam State School Education Board Act, 2024, the erstwhile Board of Secondary Education (SEBA) and the Assam Higher Secondary Education Council (AHSEC) were reorganised into a single authority, the Assam State School Education Board (ASSEB). SEBA now functions as ASSEB Division-I, looking after Class 9 and 10, while AHSEC functions as ASSEB Division-II, looking after Class 11 and 12. Examinations, registration, and syllabus continue largely as before, only the administrative structure has changed.

Role and Functions of the Board (ASSEB Division-I)

• Conducting the HSLC examination for Class 10 students every year
• Prescribing the syllabus and textbooks for Class 9 and Class 10
• Registering schools and students and issuing admit cards and certificates
• Declaring HSLC results, compartmental results, and re-evaluation outcomes
• Promoting digital and e-learning initiatives for secondary school students

SEBA Syllabus for Class 9 and Class 10

The SEBA syllabus covers core subjects such as Assamese, English, Mathematics, General Science, and Social Science, along with elective and vocational subjects. Since the syllabus is revised from time to time, students should always cross-check chapters and marking schemes with the latest official curriculum before an exam. Leepie has organised the complete Class 9 and Class 10 syllabus, chapter-wise, so Assam students can plan their studies without confusion.
