Examination reforms that focus on problem-solving, critical thinking and reasoning skills are critical to improving quality at the secondary level. Such reforms will change the teaching–learning processes and improve learning outcomes. In recent years, CBSE has introduced wide-ranging examination reforms in schools affiliated to it, such as Class X Board Examination has been made optional, Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) has been strengthened so that the students, are assessed on an ongoing basis for their holistic development, a system of grading in place of marks has been introduced. The objectives are to look at the existing systems and suggest reforms which would help better assessment of students.

In continuation to my previous suggestion I feel there we need to bring policy where students should be only promoted to next class if he acquires suitable knowledge for the next class. If all the fingers in hand are not same similarly all minds are not same so system of no failure up to class VIII and grading system in class IX and X . No failure is there up to classX and suddenly when we put pressure on them in class 11 & 12 they are nowhere. In this way we are playing with their future.

CCE system should be abolished. It has given a big set back to quality education. It has not served the purpose for which it was implemented. There should be only two exams halfyearly and annual for all the classes. This FA1,2,3,4 & SA1,2 for VI to VIII and E1, E2, E3 for classes 3 to 5 and then many internal skill test. If whole year this pattern cotinues then one can realise how much time students may be getting to read and teachers to teach. Please look into it seriously.

There should be one Examination Authority for conducting exams nationwide with the new technology & logistics available for Class 5 and above. Online exams can be conducted two times in a year to give a fair chance to every student. Syllabus should be common for a given class throughout the country. This will bring the national integration.

old system of board exam(class X) should be restarted and internal system should be abolished immediately. all schools are allowing students to write with full bag of books to show good result for school, which is corrupting the mind of young brains. cgpa 10 has become the joke of century. all this to reduce the mental tension of students which is nothing but a false propaganda. this system of internal exam is discouraging students for hard study. they know that school will provide good grade.

CCE system should be abolished immediately. those who think through CCE a child is evaluated in every aspect are living in fools paradise. they are corrupting the new generation. students are totally aware that schools will provide good grades without study or any evaluation. our old system of board exams for class X was time tested which had produced world conquering doctors and engineers. i am surprised why it was abolished and a corrupt system of internal exams(class X)has been introduced.

The CCE evaluation system of SSA is best, but nobody follows it . School teachers are just putting grades on students co-curricular activities at the end of the year in students performance report. Thats why , the hidden talents of students in various fields are unidentified. We have to make a different process to evaluate them. Every saturday should be observed as co-curricular day, where a group of schools ( LP+ UP ) will participate.

Our current examination system not fulfilling entire career every year students read the current year syllabus after that they are forget what the read how this system can help students to develop creativity and innovation. I suggested examination system needs small changes questions can be asked any lower standards to current standard. Then the students can be remembered still end of their life time.
