CCE (Continuous Comprehensive Evaluation)

Earlier assessments in schools would focus only on scholastic aspects, but with the introduction of CCE, equal emphasis is now being given to co-scholastic skills such as, attitude to learning, ability to practically apply what is learned in everyday situations, using techniques creatively or critically evaluated concepts and theories. While these are less tangible skills, they are essential to survive in the real world. The major emphasis of CCE is on the continuous growth of students ensuring their intellectual, emotional, physical, cultural and social development and therefore will not be merely limited to assessment of learner’s scholastic attainments.    
                                                                                           
Following seven skills students need for the future:

1. Critical thinking and problem-solving
2. Collaboration across networks and leading by influence
3. Agility and adaptability
4. Initiative and entrepreneurialism
5. Effective oral and written communication
6. Accessing and analyzing information
7. Curiosity and imagination

The objectives of CCE are:

1. To help develop cognitive, psychomotor and affective skills.
2. To lay emphasis on thought process and de-emphasise memorization
3. To make evaluation an integral part of teaching-learning process
4. To use evaluation for improvement of students’ achievement and teaching – learning strategies on the basis of regular diagnosis followed by remedial instruction
5. To use evaluation as a quality control device to maintain desired standard of performance
6. To determine social utility, desirability or effectiveness of a programme and take appropriate decisions about the learner, the process of learning and the learning environment
7. To make the process of teaching and learning a learner-centred activity
