(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 will be also 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.

Evaluation in 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.
