(Notification) Examination Reforms and Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) in CBSE - 2010

The Central Board of Secondary Education

Scheme of Examination Reforms and Continuous and
Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)

A. Class IX - 2009 –10 Academic Session

Strengthening Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) in Class IX 
(Second Term October 2009 – March 2010)

1. The Central Board of Secondary Education introduced Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation in Primary classes in 2004 (Circular No. 5/18/25/04). The achievement records and its format was also circulated for Classes I to V with the objective of facilitating holistic learning in the school. The focus was on identifying the talents of the learner and empowering with positive inputs. The Board recommended a five Point rating scale, it also recommended the elimination of the pass /fail system at the primary classes (Circular No. 31/04/21/05). The Board has also followed it up by extending this scheme upto Classes VI to VIII and developed a CCE card on School Based Assessment for the same (Circular No. 2/06).

2. The scheme of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) will be now further strengthened in all affiliated schools from October 2009. The Class IX students will be assessed through the CCE by the school itself. The strengthened CCE scheme will be applicable for the second term (October 2009 – March 2010) of the current academic year in Class IX.

3. In general, for the purpose of the CCE, an academic year has been divided into two terms. The first term will be from April – September and the second term from October – March.

4. The CCE in classes IX & X is intended to provide holistic profile of the learner through evaluation of both Scholastic and Co-Scholastic areas spread over two terms each during two academic years.

4.1 Evaluation of Scholastic areas: Each term will have two Formative assessments and one Summative assessment for evaluation of Scholastic areas.

4.1.1 Formative Assessment: Formative assessment is a tool used by the teacher to continuously monitor student progress in a non-threatening and supportive environment. If used effectively it can improve student performance tremendously while raising the self esteem of the child and reducing the work load of the teacher. Some of the main features of Formative assessment are that it is diagnostic and remedial, provides effective feedback to students, allows for the active involvement of students in their own learning, enables teachers to adjust teaching to take account of the results of assessment and recognizes the profound influence that assessment has on the motivation and self-esteem of students, both of which are crucial influences in learning. It is highly recommended that the school should not restrict the Formative assessment to only a paper-pencil test. There are other means of testing such as through quizzes, conversations, interviews, oral testing, visual testing, projects, practicals and assignments. For this year there will be only two Formative assessments for Class IX for the (remaining) second term. It is advised that the Schools may conduct more than two such assessments and take the best two out of those. Assessments done periodically will be shown to the students/ parents so as to encourage continuous participatory improvement.

4.1.2 Summative Assessment: The Summative assessment is the terminal assessment of performance at the end of instruction. Under the end term Summative assessment, the students will be tested internally based on the following criteria:-

Circular No: 24
All the Heads of the institutions Aaffiliated to CBSE.

SUBJECT: VIOLENCE AND RAGGING IN SCHOOLS AFFILIATED TO CBSE

Dear Principal, It has been observed that ragging has reared its ugly head in schools and the recent violence reported in a prestigious institution is a matter of shock and grave concern. Ragging is any disorderly conduct whether by words, spoken or written or by an act with the effect of teasing, treating or handling with rudeness any other student. It also involves indulging in rowdy or indisciplined activities which is likely to cause annoyance or psychological harm or apprehension or fear in any student or doing any act or performing something which a student will not do in the ordinary course and may cause shame or embarrassment or adversely affect the physique or psyche of one student by another.

Ragging is manifested in several aspects such as psychological, social, cultural and academic dimensions .Exploiting the relationship which has an inherent power structure such as between a senior and junior student for any of the factors mentioned above will fall under ragging .An act or abuse by spoken words, emails, public insults should be considered within the psychological aspects of ragging. Any act which affects the physical, mental, emotional - health, self confidence or self esteem of a student can be categorized as an aspect of ragging. There have often been incidents of physical and sexual abuse in schools which are brushed under the carpet and not reported even to the parents as it may harm the reputation of the institute. This is a dangerous trend and needs to be stopped immediately.

Once these students are left unchecked, they will grow to plague so
