ASSESSMENT: (Classes IX and X)

Evaluation is an important aspect of planning and execution of the Socially Useful Productive Work and Community Service Programme in Schools. From the beginning of the programme each step needs evaluation. An illustrative guide to the areas of assessment and weightage to be given is contained in the following paragraphs.

1. Selection of Socially Useful Productive Work and Community Service .

Suggested lists of the Main Crafts/Services and Subsidiary Crafts/ Services have been given in the syllabus booklet. Candidates will be required to select one main craft and one subsidiary service OR one main service and one subsidiary craft per year of preparation for the examination, i.e. Class IX and X.

2. Internal Assessment

The Internal Assessments will consist of assessment in (a) Socially Useful Productive Work (b) Community Service. The work undertaken by the candidates during the two-year preparation period in each will be assessed and marked out of 50. From these assessments they will be placed in an order of merit list giving them marks out of a total of 100. The Council reserves the right to call for the records of the candidates' work.

3. Socially Useful Productive Work
