PREFACE
Teachers make professional judgments on students’ performance in every teaching
and learning session undertaken, whether consciously or subconsciously. Using these
professional judgments and translating them into feedback on the quality of individuals’
work is the focus of Assessment for Learning. Successful Assessment is necessary for
result in improved learner progress on a continual basis. The principal characteristic of
Assessment for Learning is effective feedback provided by teachers to learners on their
progress. It is this simple and profound reality that means that assessment is perhaps the
central process in effective instruction. If our students learned what we taught, we would
never need to assess. We could simply catalog all the learning experiences we had
organized for them, certain in the knowledge that this is what they had learned.

Therefore a complete break up of syllabus is meticulously planned to enable the

students and the parents to have a complete idea of the assessment system and to prepare
for the same.

Wish you all the very best for your future!
