There is lot of confusion when choosing about a board, I myself felt it in my son's case...I would suggest only one thing is go for any board, what is important that you have to take care of the studies of the child... Icse board covers a wider prospect, cbse is more like stress on science and maths, IB and IGSC is international board, where practicals are more important but also if you planing to send the child abroad after class 10 then it is a good option. ...so it completely depends on which board you choose. ..all the best.
