1. INTRODUCTION
1.1 CBSE ORGANISATION AND OBJECTIVES
The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), a registered society and an autonomous organization
under Ministry of Human Resource Development, Government of India, is one of the three Boards at
National Level. The main objectives of the Board are to serve the educational Institutions effectively and
to be responsive to the educational needs of the students.
1.2 DETAILS OF NUMBER OF CBSE REGIONS AND AFFILIATED SCHOOLS
The Board has approx. 14,000 schools affiliated wi t h i t with nearl y 150 schools located overseas.
There are ni ne regi onal of f i ces of the Board namel y, Delhi, Panchkula, Allahabad, Patna,
Guwahati, Ajmer, Chennai, Bhubaneswar, Thiruvananthapuram.
The prime focus of the Board is on (a) prescription of suitable curriculum for its various schemes of
examination in both academic and vocational streams (b) regularly updating the pedagogical skills
of the teachers and administrators by conducting in-service training programs and workshops, ( c)
setting norms for affiliation of institutions to raise the academic standards in the country and (d)
prescribing as well as updating the course of instructions to raise the academic standards of the institutions
affiliated with it.
1.3 CCE IN CBSE
The Boards policies are based on National Policies of Education and it has primarily adopted and adapted
the National Curriculum Framework (NCF) - 2005. The NCF-2005 operates on five guiding principles that
envisage a learner centered curriculum, founded on the learners ability to construct his or her own
knowledge (constructivism) thus giving primacy to the learner. It advocates teaching to facilitate
knowledge construction, diagnostic evaluation to remediation, refining and improving learning processes.
As learners readiness to take an examination has become paramount, thus, the examination reforms were
a logical consequence. Assessment for learning was to be a major shift in the extant paradigms of
examination oriented learning. A major step of reform in this direction was making the Board examination
in class X optional especially when the certificate is not very important for further continuance of studies.
To realize the above objectives, the Board has strengthened several of its academic initiatives treading
beyond its direct mandate as an examination body such as laid out periodic guidelines and training
programmes to encourage innovation in teaching-learning methodologies; advocated joyous learning
without burden in primary and upper primary and implemented the process of CCE in primary classes
encouraging for extension in upper primary classes. The Board has thus extended the process of CCE to
the secondary classes by including a component of internal assessment in the external examination of class
X for the last decade and more.
Notwithstanding all these efforts to streamline pedagogic practices, the one- time board examination
still reigned supreme and remained the focus of pedagogy instead of being learner centric. Hence, the
MHRD/CABE endorsed the NCF recommendation of making Board exam optional in class X as appropriate
for implementation. This, inter alia, also included making the evaluation more comprehensive and
continuous to assess both scholastic and co-scholastic abilities of the students i.e. Continuous and
Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE).
This further required empowerment of schools to decide the selection of appropriate evaluation tools for
facilitating individualized instruction and enhancing the quality of learning in respect of each child placed
in the mentorship of the teacher.
The philosophy of CCE takes cognizance of two important factors, namely the various components of
human growth and potential that govern the process of learning and continuous assessment of all these to
facilitate perpetual refinement of construction of knowledge and enhancement of Life Skills. In operational
terms, it would mean designing effective evaluation tools that would serve for Formative and Summative
stages of learning.
The Board has taken various thoughtful initiatives to prepare a comprehensive road map to operationalize
and implement the examination reforms of the government in a time bound and effective manner with
public interest at focus.
One such initiative is implementation of the scheme Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation
(CCE) in its strengthened from October 2009 in Class IX onwards. The Board in the year 2010 conducted
Master Trainer programmes at 95 venues across the country covering more than 7,000 affiliated schools
and more than 20,000 teachers from September 2009 to January 2010. The objective was to cover
maximum number of schools and at least three teachers (including Principals of the school) of each school
so as to help them to assimilate the contents and nuances of CCE and they in turn could train and sensitize
other teachers in their schools. The Board also prepared and published Teachers Manuals on CCE and
Formative Assessments and training modules on CCE.
Subsequently in 2012 Board empanelled agencies for imparting In-service Training Programme on various
components of CCE. Based on the feedback received from the stakeholders the list of empanelled agencies
is being revisited now. The Centre for Assessment Evaluation and Research(CAER) housed at Shiksha
Sadan, Rouse Avenue, New Delhi will be responsible for quality audit and monitoring of the agencies.
The Centre for Assessment, Evaluation and Research (CAER) has been established in partnership with the
Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). Its vision is to establish a centre of excellence in research,
educational assessment and evaluation leading to an improvement in the access, equity and quality of
learning in India.
The CAER is uniquely placed with its core competencies being in the area of educational assessment,
evaluation and research. The CAER has a strong understanding of the principles of assessment and
evaluation required for ensuring quality of educational agencies and programmes of learning and research.
With its in-depth understanding of multi-fold aspects of professional development needs and strategies and
global insights of means to achieve the desired learning outcomes, the CAER intends to focus on developing
the appropriate inputs and processes that can ensure and assure the desired quality outcomes by the
agencies that have been empanelled and will be empanelled to provide trainings in India.
