Assessment

Assessment

Academic assessment plays a crucial role in the teaching and learning process. Our assessment pattern is crafted based on research into international standards and the NCERT guidelines. We emphasize maximizing classroom learning and encouraging students to apply their knowledge in real-life situations.

The academic year is divided into two terms and each term has two assessment reports. Each assessment report is based on the continuous evaluation based on class activities, worksheets and assignments on a day-to-day basis.

The academic year is divided into two terms and each term has two assessment reports. There shall be no formal examinations for classes I & II. The students will be assessed based on day-to-day performance and regular classroom observations. The assessments would comprise worksheets, assignments, recitation, reading, group discussions, dictation, project works, quizzes, extempore, multiple choice questions (MCQs), interactions, short answer questions (SAQs), field projects, etc.

Students of classes III and above will follow a uniform assessment scheme with a two-semester system that will include half-yearly and annual examinations. Every semester comprises periodic assessments and half-yearly / Annual examinations. Assessments will be carried out separately for scholastic (academic) and non-scholastic (co-curricular) activities.

Periodic Test (PT)

Regular Periodic Assessment (PA) shall be conducted as scheduled in the Almanac. Each term shall have one round of PAs.

  • A Periodic Test is a Pen and Paper Assessment which is to be conducted by the subject teacher. The question paper contains a balanced mix of VSA/SA/LA to effectively test the students.
  • The gradually increasing portion of content would prepare students to acquire confidence for appearing in the half-yearly and Annual examinations.
