Assessment Structure CBSE-‐i

Assessment in classes I-II
• In the first two years of primary school students will be informally assessed. • No Pass or Fail at the end of the academic year and promote all learners to the
next class. • No exams at the end of term or session, assessment Integrated in teaching-
learning process. • Continuous observation and documentation based on anecdotal records,
leading to specific diagnosis, feedback and remediation • The teachers to make plans, set targets and identify students with special
needs based on the results of student’s performance. • Progress of students will be regularly recorded and shared once each half
term in a year to ensure that learning is smooth and effective. • For this each student's development and achievements shall be recorded in
the Performance Profile. • In these classes the teacher will not give grades or marks and the Performance
Profile will be filled with emoticons only based on the descriptors given at the end of the Performance Profile.
• Students will be assessed on the basis of the teacher's continuous observations in the following scholastic and co-scholastic areas of learning.
• Scholastic Areas o English o Language II o Mathematics o Environmental education
• Co-scholastic Areas o Visual and Performing Arts o Physical education o ICT o SEWA o Life skills
• The Core-SEWA and Life Skills will also be filled with emoticons only based on the descriptors given at the end of the Performance Profile.

Co-scholastic Areas
1. Visual and Performing Arts 2. Physical education 3. ICT 4. SEWA 5. Life skills

Formative Assessment-4 10% January- February
Summative Assessment-2 30% March SA2=30%
Total: Formative Assessments (FA) = FA1+ FA2 + FA3 +FA4 = 40% Summative Assessments (SA)= SA1+ SA2 = 60%
Components of a Formative Assessment
• Each Formative assessment should include:
• Activities to include variety of activities such as quiz, debate, projects, theatre etc.
• Activities should include one group activity per assessment. • One Multidisciplinary/interdisciplinary group project should be assigned to
students in each term to be done in class under the direct supervision. • For Assessment purposes the average score of all activities will be taken
and the final FA will be calculated as the average of the two individual activity, a group activity and the written assessment
Guidelines for Summative paper:
• The term-end or the summative paper towards primary can be of maximum 50 marks. The marks scored can be doubled (multiplied by 2) to calculate the final grades with ease.
• The chapter/topics covered through the formative assessments should not be extensively examined in the summative exam. For example if there are total 7 units being covered in the entire session, out of which 3 are being done in term 1 and 4 towards term 2 then, assessment structure shall be:
Assessment Portion to be covered FA 1 Unit 1 FA 2 Unit 2 SA 1 Unit 3 (80%) Units 1 & 2 (20%) FA 3 Unit 4 FA 4 Unit 5 SA 2 Unit 6& 7 (80%) Units 4 & 5 (20%)
Average score
1. Two Individual Activity (Recitation, Experiments, Debate)
2. One Group Activity (Projects, Role Plays, Group Discussion, Surveys)
3. Written Assessment

The following points should be noted:
• There are two formative assessments each in the first and second term. • Each formative assessment is again divided into smaller classroom based
activities which are primarily remedial but also being counted towards assessment for bringing in standardisation across diverse school systems, as mentioned above in ‘Components of a Formative Assessment’.
• Detailed and objective feedback is to be provided for all formal paper pencil formative assessments tests.
• Feedback and follow-up of feedback is essential to identify the extent to which the learning gaps are covered, so that further remediation can be planned.
• The tasks which need much work outside the school and class hours may not be ideal for formative assessments.
• The Group activity MUST be conducted entirely under the supervision of the teacher, where s/he acts as the facilitator. It need not be given as homework.
• Group activities (Projects) should to be Interdisciplinary.
