Exam and Results

Evaluation is one of the important components of the System of Education. Effective evaluation not only categorizes the students into meritorious, average and slow learners but also allows teachers to plan their strategies to improve the standards of average and slow learners as well. Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) System which has been followed for the past seven academic years is now replaced by a new “UNIFORM SYSTEM OF ASSESSMENT AND EXAM INATION” by the CBSE. The CBSE board has restored the Board Examination for Class from the academic year 2017-2018 onwards. Further, the CBSE has revised the assessment and examination for class X from 2017-2018 onwards. This new scheme will bring uniformity in the system of assessment and examination for classes IX and X in all CBSE affiliated schools. To increase the confidence in the students to start preparing for class X board Examination when they join the upper primary stage in class VI, the CBSE has decided to implement the uniform system of assessment examination pattern and issue of report cards for classes VI to VIII also on the similar pattern.

The scheme for classes VI-VIII has been designed on Term Assessment Basis. Accordingly the School will be following the new system as per the Guidelines issued by the CBSE Board from the academic year 2018-2019. The students of classes I to X will have to adapt themselves to the new pattern and come out successful in the tests and examinations conducted by the school. As the entire syllabus is covered for the Year-ending Board examination, the students of class X have to work harder continuously throughout the academic year so that they can come out successful in the Board examination.

The detailed components of the scheme are mentioned below for easy understanding and implementation.

1. Scholastic Area: The assessment structure and examination for classes VI to VIII have been prepared in view of the provisions of RTE-Act 2009 and comprises two terms i.e. Term-1 and 2 as explained below:
