According to a CBSE notification issued on September 3, the change has been made due to administrative reasons.

Focus on School-to-Work Transition
The national summit focuses on the transition of students from school education to further education, skills and employment. The initiative is particularly relevant as schools increasingly look at ways of strengthening career awareness, vocational exposure and employability-oriented learning.
The summit is expected to provide a platform for schools and education stakeholders to discuss approaches that can help students develop skills and prepare for changing academic and workplace environments.

CBSE has advised schools and participants to take note of the revised schedule. Institutions that have not yet registered but wish to participate should complete the registration process by September 15, 2026.
