Promotion Policy
There is no formal examination system for these Early Childhood Education Classes. A system of continuous evaluation is adopted and at the end year, as far as possible, all children are promoted to the next higher class.
Classes I, II, III, IV & V
Even for these classes, the objective of assessment is to monitor a child’s level of development without comparing with others. Through continous evaluation, a comprehensive profile of his/ her performance is assimilated and conveyed to the parents. The assessment is recorded in ‘Grades’ instead of ‘percentage’ to eliminate the negative factor inherent in the ranking system.
It will be appropriate to mention here parental participation in this system is of paramount importance. They should attend PTM regularly to share their views and should also assist the school in organizing extra-curricular activities for these classes.
Classes VI, VII & VIII
The pass percentage in each subject for these classes is 40%. The General Science subject comprising Physics, Chemistry and Biology is an integrated one and the aggregate of these should be 40%. The same applies to Social Science comprising History, Geography, Economics and Civics. The pass percentage in the third language (Sanskrit or any other) is also 40%. Computer Education is treated as an academic subject and the marks obtained in the subject are reflected in the cards along with other subjects.
Since Art Education, Work Experience and Physical Education are compulsory components of the curriculum for these classes, students must score a passing grade in Art, Music, Dance, Physical Education and any other work experience based activity introduced by the school from time to time.
