CBSE Class 11 Informatics Practices - Sample Paper Blueprint & Marking Schemes

Review section-wise weightage, model papers, Python and SQL query-based problems, and step-wise mark allocations for the 2026-27 session.

📋 CBSE Class 11 Informatics Practices Exam Pattern & Marks Distribution (2026-27):

Total Marks: 100 (Theory: 70 + Practical: 30).
Time Allowed (Theory): 3 Hours.
Theory Coverage: Computer system basics, Python programming fundamentals and data handling, database concepts with SQL, and Society, Law and Ethics — with a data- and application-focused emphasis rather than the deeper algorithmic focus of Computer Science (083).
Practical Split (30 marks): Problem-solving using Python (11 marks), creating and querying a database using MySQL (7 marks), Practical File with a minimum of 14 Python programs and 14 MySQL queries (7 marks), and Viva Voce (5 marks).
Question Mix: MCQs, Very Short Answer, Short Answer, and Long Answer questions covering both theory concepts and Python/SQL code, most with internal choices.

Sample 1-Mark Question (MCQ): Which SQL clause is used to filter records after grouping has been performed with GROUP BY?

Sample 4-Mark Question (SQL Query): Consider a table STUDENT(Rno, Name, Class, Marks). Write SQL queries to: (a) display the names and marks of students scoring more than 80, in descending order of marks; (b) display the average marks of each class.

📌 Evaluation Criteria followed by Board Examiners in Informatics Practices:

Step Marking on Code: SQL queries and Python programs are marked clause-by-clause or line-by-line, so a minor syntax slip in an otherwise correct query still earns most of the marks.
Exact Syntax Matters: SQL keywords, correct table/column naming, and proper punctuation are checked closely — a logically correct but syntactically malformed query loses marks.
Practical File and Viva: Students must be able to explain the purpose and output of every Python program and SQL query in their practical file, since the viva often tests understanding through small modifications to existing work.
