●
The Central Board of Secondary Education introduced Continuous and
Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) in Primary classes (class I to V) in 2004.
(Circular No. 5/18/25/04)
●
For this the Board recommended a five Point rating scale, it also
recommended the elimination of the pass /fail system at the primary classes
(Circular No. 31/04/21/05)
●
The focus was on identifying the talents of the learner and empowering with
positive inputs.
●
The Board has also followed it up by extending this scheme up to Classes VI to
VIII and developed a CCE card on School Based Assessment for the same.
(Circular No. 2/06)
History of CCE in India

●
The Class IX & X students are also being assessed through the
CCE by the school itself.
●
In general, for the purpose of the CCE, an academic year has
been divided into two terms.
●
The first term will be from April – Sept and the second term
from October – March.

●
The Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) has to be
strengthened in all affiliated schools.
●
The new 9 point Grading system has been introduced at Secondary
School level (for Classes IX & X) effective from 2009-10 Academic
Session.
Implementation of CCE

●
It will reduce stress and anxiety which often builds up during and
after the examination
●
It will reduce the dropout rate as there will be less fear and
anxiety related to performance.
●
The emphasis on conceptual clarification through experiential
learning in the classroom
How would the Scheme help?

●
It is expected to prepare the students for life by making students
physically fit, mentally alert and emotionally balanced.
●
The students will have more time on their hands to develop their
interests, hobbies and personalities.
●
It will enable the students, parents and teachers to make an
informed choice about subjects in Class XI.
●
Schools have been asked to appoint Full time Counselors as a
process.
Expectation being delivered by CCE:

In the assessment process, one should be careful NEVER
to:
●
Label learners as slow, poor, intelligent etc.
●
Make comparisons between them.
●
Make negative statements.
Priority while testing……

4 Assessment Paradigms

●
It will motivate learning in a friendly environment rather than
in a fearful situation.
●
It will equip students with Life Skills especially Creative and
Critical thinking skills, social skills and coping skills which will
keep them in a good stead when they enter into a highly
competitive environment later on.
Expectation being delivered by CCE:

The ultimate expectations through CCE:

●
Shared lesson planning:
●
Not only the same subject teachers, but also collaboration of resources
ought to happen with teachers taking up different subject areas.
What goes behind the implementation of CCE?

●
Reduced teacher pupil ratio:
●
It is absolutely essential to have a small class, with the teacher-
student ratio not exceeding 1:30 for effective implementation of the
scheme.
CCE Initiates:

●
Sustained reading time:
●
It is often observed that classroom issues remain only the prerogative of
the class teacher. Reading needs to be a sustained school routine where
pedagogical issues are addressed.
CCE Inspires towards:

●
Flexible timetable:
●
The implementation of the scheme also implies flexible timetables.
Imagine the plight of the child’s mind buffering between different
subjects one after the other, switching on and off within the span of 30
minutes.
CCE Explores !!

The basic assumption of Formative Assessment is that
every child can improve. When children are engaged in
activities they feel like participating in the assessment
process, projects, homework. They themselves grow,
feeling in control of their success, and believing that
continued success is within their reach if they keep trying.
