THE ACADEMIC SESSION
Each academic session in Class IX and X will comprise two terms and students will have two term-end exams called summative assessment.
“The CBSE will provide a question bank to schools, which will then prepare their question papers for the term-end exam and evaluate papers internally,” said CBSE Chairperson Vineet Joshi. A continuous evaluation will take place through formative assessment and comprise class work, homework, oral questions and quizzes, projects and assignments. “There will be four formative assessments in one academic session carrying 40 per cent weightage,” said Joshi.
A CONTINUOUS PROCESS
Continuous and comprehensive evaluation will not only take into account the academic performance of a child but also focus on scholastic and co scholastic activities. Scholastic areas would include work experience, art education, general knowledge and computer science. The bigger challenge would be grading students on thinking and emotional skills, attitude towards teachers, schoolmates and public property.
“When we say creative skills, we are talking about skills like debate, creative writing, recitation, drawing etc.” said Joshi.
THE GRADING SYSTEM
The marks given in exams will be replaced by grades. Although Class X students will have a Board exam this year, they will be graded and not marked. (See box above). However, a student can find out his/her percentile, but it will not find place in the report card.
EXAM-ON-DEMAND
The CBSE will conduct exam on-demand for Class X students who want to sit for a Class X final exam. “The test can be taken and the student will be given a CBSE certificate in case he/she wants to go to another school or join pre-university,” said HRD Minister Kapil Sibal. The student can choose from a number of dates on which the exam will be held. “The pattern will be the same as in SAT. Online and offline exams will be available and the question paper will be different for each student,” said Sibal.
MOVING OUT OF SYSTEM
In states where the CBSE schools run till class X, students who have to enter pre-university can ask the board for marks. For instance, in Maharasthra, many CBSE students prefer to opt for pre-university after Class X since it makes it easier for them to get admission to undergraduate courses. “If a student wants to switch to the state board system, the system will provide the original marks in terms of numbers,”

i think this is rediculous…………………………….yeh sub europian countries ko dekh kar kiya gaya hai…………………………………it can be nice but in a small country………..not in india
it is rediculous step in india………….it may be nice step but only in small countries……………but not in india
yeh just europian countries ki cheating hai
this is cheating of europian countries
i think…….dis is worse…….all dat….etc activities……..n spcially..that grade system ……oh god….. person scoring 80 above jus b grade……..hellllllll
IT IS D WORST DECISION TOOK BY CBSE BECAUSE TEACHERS WILL GIVE EXTRA MARKS TO THIER FAVIOURTES . BOARDS SHOULKD BE THEIR IF NOT OPTIONAL 4 THOSE WHO WANT TO GIVE
i feel this grading system is good … be practicle!
i agree…………it’s just cheating!!!!!!!! (pr nakal k liye bhi akal chaiye)
if u cheat…do it properly…provide gud teachers n gud environment……i study in 1 of d bst skuls over here……but level of many teachers is just……..huh!
i think it is not good because if i got 70 and above %, i got B1 or B grade….and this is not good grade between 70% or 80%………
This CCE System should be started at the very begining of the Academic year.Now it makes confussion and tesion to both teachers and students.
dis is d worst system of education….as in dis system teachears wil do parciality….wich wont b gud 4 students…
I think this is not a very good system because we toil hard and we will be awarded only mere grades. We will be utterly discouraged.
a prson gettin 80% wil too get a B grade….dats parcial n really sick…cce=trash can
ITS NOT GUD BECAUSE CHILDREN CAN GET QUESTION PAPER BEFOREHAND FROM OTHER SCHOOLS.
Burden for students and teachers.Students suffer a lot coz of projects and continuous tests.Teachers load us with tests and assignments so as to grade us,also a burden for them……….we’re getting toast.If this syllabus is looking forward to improve the students, well actually it is doing no good to us.
its not gud, badddddddddddddddddddddddddddd
well i think cce is a good one but not the best. it is good for those who are not good in academics n worst for those who excel in it. for the scholars being in group with a person getting 90 is unbearable. where as it looks after the all round development of a child but that need not be graded.
they adopted the system at the name of reducing the burden from students..bt if we go in2 deep..grading according 2 me is a nice system if v talk about reducing the burden..bt all dese FA’s n all r to b regreted..teachers hav 40% marks in dere hands…redicullous
dat’s tooooooooo baaaaadddd!!!!!!!
it sucks
yes definately it sucks!!!!!!!!!!!
boards were a better option ……….
now the career class is at risk.
i think it is the worst system of copying the west. how can a team of teachers evaluate co- scholastic areas???????? earlier students were only concerned about learning now they have to be the puppets of teachers else they would be given lower grades.. this system is encouraging boot licking of teachers. the worst system ever copied by mr. k sibbal……..a non sense and foolish minister
i am very happy with this new grading system
plz tell me that can i opt for any other state board as i had given school based 10 exams….plzz i’m really confused and depressed…plz guys help me out..

uuuhhhh it hurts really. Its too bad. My kid’s life is already spoiled by the school teachers and the assessment commitee of the school. Some one should pick the answersheet of my child and can feel it straightaway that how bluntly the marking had been done in the 9th and 10th school internal assessment. May be my kid dont go to the tution classes run by the teachers or what. Its surprising that the same kid gets 80% in science and 60% in Maths in the finals. but due to the earlier marking in the school, his overall performance seems to go down in the records that he could not opt for science subjects in class 11th nor he can go for the computer science. it seems like a bloody mafia running the school. duly helped by the new system. Amazingly the student who is forced to take the commerce due to less percentage or maths, questions to the administrators that if due to maths C1 grade (even science score is B1 8.0), he cannot take science , I mean he cannot study maths and science subjects,,,, how they are going to remove the mathmatical computations from the commerce. From first day of his commerce studies till his retirement, he will be doing the computation only and it requires mathematical knowledge to do so. Is it possible to remove the mathematical computations from the commerce.
U fools, just think about this logic that a kid understands but all of u fools dont.
No matter how many global systems of education you(CBSE) try to imbibe or copy the the foremost necessity is to be honest and true from heart while implementing. CBSE introduces so many assessment systems but has it ever done any field research work? Paper work is not difficult but correct implementation of that paper work and follow ups are the essentials which are missing. Can anyone from CBSE give an answer?
