Assessment and Progress

How Progress Is Tracked and Shared

Assessment should help children grow, not only rank them. Parents receive continuous, transparent feedback on developmental milestones.

Continuous Assessment System (CAS)

We follow the Continuous Assessment System with observations, project work, class participation, and portfolios in addition to exams.

Grade-wise Assessment Breakdown

Marks are distributed across internal assessment and terminal or board examinations, with projects and practical work included.

Examination Schedule

    Monthly | All subjects | 25 marks each
