Education aims at making children capable of becoming responsible, productive
and
useful members of the society. Knowledge, skills and attitudes are built through learning
experiences and opportunities created for learners in school. It is in the classroom that learners
can analyze and evaluate their experiences, learn to doubt, question, investigate and think
independently. The aim of education simultaneously reflects the current needs and aspirations of a
society, as well as its lasting values and human ideals.
A curriculum is what constitutes the total teaching-learning programme comprising overall aims,
syllabus, materials, methods and assessments. Evaluation not only measures the progress and
achievement of the learners but also the effectiveness of the teaching materials and methods used
for transaction. Hence, evaluation should be viewed as a component of curriculum with the twin
purpose of effective delivery and further improvement in the teaching-learning process.
The scope of evaluation in schools extends to almost all the areas of learner's personality
development. It should include both scholastic and co-scholastic areas i.e., it should be
comprehensive in nature. This is in line with the goals of education.
The school follows Uniform assessment format of CBSE and NCERT Syllabus. School-based evaluation of
a student is done that covers all aspects of his/her development which emphasis on two-fold
objectives. These objectives are continuously evaluated and assessed through Periodic Tests and
Session Ending Tests.
