PSEB Class 10 English Exam Pattern 2026

The PSEB Class 10 English test is a multifaceted test that aims at evaluating the mastery of the functional language and the literary richness of a student. Following the paper solved, the pattern has been designed into five parts with a total of 80 marks, with a focus on balanced questions recall and creativity.

• Reading Skills (Section A): Concentrates on understanding and visual literacy (posters), where students are expected to derive information and meaning out of the invisible text.
• Literature & Poetry (Sections B and C): The sections are used to examine the "Main Course" and the Supplementary reader. The trend is shifted towards one-word objective questions to short 20-word answers and longer 50-word thematic exploration, so that the students are aware of the plot and philosophy behind it.
• Vocabulary/ Grammar (Sections D and E): This is the technical foundation of the paper. It includes such issues as homophones and idioms and such complicated changes as voice, narration, and non-finite verbs. Translation (English to Hindi/Punjabi and vice versa) is a special feature of the tests, which test bilingual skills.
• Composition (Section E continued): The last section requires applied writing, such as drafting messages, formal letters and paragraph writing by hints.

On the whole, the paper is easy to use by students but challenging to those who have a good grasp of their syllabus but have a clear and well-structured format that eliminates anxiety on examination day.

Internal Assessment: 20 Marks

Grand Total: 100 Marks
