Evaluation Criterion

NURSERY AND PRE-PRIMARY

EVALUATION:-Research has shown that tests are not accurate when measuring children’s abilities as they do not understand the concept of testing. We cannot compare one child’s ‘score’ with another’s. No formal tests are conducted as children develop at different rates and comparison at this stage is meaningless.

A child’s progress is measured by the teacher’s ongoing observations over the whole year. This progress is compared to his/her previous development and not to other children.

The teacher records the child’s progress in three ways:-

1. Descriptive Journal/Log Book/Anecdotal Record.
2. Checklist
3. Collection of work.

CLASS I & II

The assessment is carried out on daily basis as per the following parameters:

1. Mathematical skills
2. Environmental Studies
3. Thinking Skills
4. Language Skills
1. Listening Skills –
1. Listening Stories, Poems and lessons withunderstanding
2. Cognitive development of the child will be observedand recorded.
2. Speaking Skills – The learner expresses self clearly and confidentlywhile

Evaluation of Academic Subjects in Classes VI to X
Type of assessment	Percentage of weighting in academic session	Month	Term wise weighting
	First Term
Formative Assessment-1	10%	April-May	FA1+FA2=20%
Formative Assessment-2	10%	July-August
Summative Assessment-1	30%	September	SA1=30%
	Second Term
Formative Assessment-3	10%	October-November	FA3+FA4=20%
Formative Assessment-4	10%	January-February
Formative Assessment-2	30%	March	SA2=30%

Total: Formative Assessments (FA) = FA1+FA2+ FA3+FA4 = 40%

Summative Assessments (SA) = SA1+SA2 = 60%

The nine point grading scale for measuring Scholastic achievements is given below:

Grade	Marks Range	Grade Point
A1	91-100	10.0
A2	81-90	9.0
B1	71-80	8.0
B2	61-70	7.0
C1	51-60	6.0
C2	41-50	5.0
D	33-40	4.0
E1	21-32	3.0
E2	00-20	2.0

Co-Scholastic attainments 2 (A,B,C & D) and 3 (A,B) will be done on 5 point
Scale (shown in the table below). It will be done once in a session.

Grade	Grade Points
A	4.1-5.0
B	3.1-4.0
C	2.1-3.0
D	1.1-2.0
E	0-10

Minimum qualifying grade in Co-Scholastic Domain is D
