School Education in India varies from state to state. COBSE aims to make school education available to the students from weaker sections of the Society and dropouts. COBSE shall coordinate with different boards of the states and Ministry of Education, Govt. of India to promote and propagate school education, upholding the true spirit of ‘Right to Education’ of Govt. of India and ‘Education For All’ a global movement led by UNESCO.

Council of Boards of School Education will also provide its membership to central and state Govt. Schools education boards in order to ensure good quality education from Primary to Senior Secondary Level. Membership helps schools boards demonstrate credibility by being listed under the COBSE membership list , which is often searched by parents verifying school boards authenticity.

Quality of school education has been hampered due to the mushrooming of fake education boards therefore COBSE is committed to check genuineness of Education Boards. This will make certain that the students do not suffer owing to counterfeit deals. COBSE actively works to identify and prevent students from being misled by fraudulent institutions commonly referred to as the COBSE fake board list, by promoting only authorised and recognised boards
