SCHEME OF ASSESSMENTS

Classes VI to VII

Assessment is an integral part of the teaching and learning process. To ensure the effectiveness of student’s educational experience, it is important that varied assessment techniques be used at regular intervals.

SBM has defined the following objectives for assessment:

1. To provide quality feedback to students so as to ensure growth in learning of students.

2. To effectively guide students through the essential elements of learning: the acquisition of knowledge, the understanding of concepts, the mastering of skills.

3. To provide feedback to parents regarding students’ progress through grades.

To achieve the above objective the Academic Session has been divided as follows. The detailed distribution given below
