ABSTRACT
This study investigates the differences in creative thinking abilities among Standard XI students from State
Board and
C.B.S.E. schools. A sample of students was selected from both educational systems and assessed using
standardized measures
of creative thinking, which included fluency, flexibility, originality, and elaboration. The findings
revealed significant
differences in certain dimensions of creativity between the two groups, highlighting the impact of
curriculum design,
teaching methods, and assessment practices on students’ creative potential. The study emphasizes the need
for fostering
creativity within school systems and suggests pedagogical strategies that can enhance creative thinking
across different
boards of education.
