Nagaland Board Class 10 English syllabus and blueprint 2026

Official NBSE English blueprint

NBSE’s official Class X document sets an 80-mark paper. Its named areas are literature, reading, writing, and grammar.

The literature list includes Mehouviu and Morusa, Imitating the English Gentleman, Macbeth, Invictus, Death the Leveller, The Windhover, The Listeners, Jina and Etiben, and Riders to the Sea. Reading covers three unseen passages. Writing covers notice/advertisement/email/formal invitation, paragraph writing, visual-input questions, and article/speech/formal-letter/report writing. Grammar covers voice, adjective clause, narration, determiners/verbs/phrases, finite and non-finite forms, and clauses.

The PDF is the authoritative source for question counts, marks, and internal choices; use it together with any current NBSE notification.

Original practice prompts

Use these with the official syllabus above—these are study prompts, not a claimed board question paper.

  • Choose one listed section and explain its main ideas aloud without looking at notes.
  • Write five questions you would ask from that section, then answer them from memory.
  • Mark one topic you find difficult and make a one-page revision sheet for it.
  • After revising, attempt a past or sample paper only if its board, subject, language, and year match yours.

How to use this

  1. Read the syllabus or open the official paper from the source link.
  2. Use the related materials below to revise the same subject.
  3. Check an answer key or marking scheme only when it is published by the board.
