What Is the TN First Mid-Term Exam?
Before checking the portions, it helps to understand what this exam is and why the syllabus matters for students across Tamil Nadu.
The First Mid-Term Test is a periodic internal assessment conducted by government and government-aided schools in Tamil Nadu, typically in July, shortly after the academic year begins. Each district’s Chief Educational Officer (CEO) issues a syllabus notification specifying exactly how much of the textbook is to be covered, since the amount of portion taught can vary slightly by district and academic calendar. The Chennai District notification reviewed here applies to Classes 6 through 12 and lists subject-wise chapters for the July 2025 exam cycle.

For Classes 6 to 10, the Chennai District syllabus is presented as a single consolidated table covering the five core subjects. Portions increase in depth as students move up a class, with Class 10 covering the widest range of chapters in Maths and Science.

TN First Mid-Term Time Table 2026: Current Status
Many students search for the 2026 exam dates alongside the syllabus. This section explains what is known so far about the upcoming First Mid-Term Time Table.
As of the latest update, the Tamil Nadu School Education Department has confirmed that the First Mid-Term Examinations for the 2026-27 academic year will be conducted in July 2026, following the Academic Calendar 2026-27. However, district-wise exact dates – including for Chennai District – have not yet been officially released and are marked “to be announced” by education portals tracking the notification. Students are advised to check official district CEO notifications closer to the exam period for confirmed dates.
The syllabus and time table are usually released separately by each District Chief Educational Officer, so Chennai District’s 2026 portion list may carry the same subject structure as the July 2025 syllabus detailed above, though exact chapter ranges should be confirmed once the new notification is issued.
