CCE and Grading System<\/h2>\n

Some of the salient features of CBSE reforms are being reiterated below for clarification, reinforcement and implementation.<\/strong><\/p>\n

(a)\u00a0 The recently announced scheme of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) for classes IX and X is to be followed in all schools <\/strong>affiliated to the Board.<\/p>\n

(b)\u00a0 Under the CCE, an academic year has been divided into two terms-Term I extending from April to September and Term II from October to March except for winter closing schools. The latter will have Term I from Jan to June and Term II from July to December.<\/p>\n

(c)\u00a0 The syllabus in each subject for Classes IX and X has been distributed term wise. This term wise syllabus is available on the CBSE website at the CCE Corner under the section Secondary School Curriculum 2012.<\/p>\n

(d)\u00a0 The assessment scheme to be followed in Secondary as well as Senior secondary schools in classes IX and X is exactly the same except that Class-X students studying in secondary schools will take Board conducted Summative Assessment-II (SA-II) <\/strong>in place of School conducted Summative Assessment-II (SA-II) <\/strong>in Senior Secondary Schools.<\/p>\n

(e)\u00a0 All the students irrespective of their studying in secondary or senior secondary school or continuing or leaving the CBSE Board after class-X, will be required to undergo various assessments in co-scholastic areas in classes IX and X at school level as indicated earlier.<\/p>\n

(f) For assessment in scholastic areas the schools will undertake both Formative and Summative Assessments in both the classes IX and X. For Formative Assessments, detailed guidelines have been issued separately. For Summative Assessments, the question papers in every subject for classes IX and X for SA-I will be based on Term I syllabus and for SA-II on Term II syllabus.<\/p>\n
