WHY
CONTINUOUS COMPREHENSIVE

External Examinations

21st century and its need for innovative problem solvers

Evaluation of Scholastic learning only on marks.

Ability of child not evaluated.

Limited Techniques of Evaluation do not identify

Resulting in Pass/Fail.

Causing frustration
and humiliation .

Percentile A percentile rank is the percentage of scores that
fall below a given score. To find the percentile rank of a score x,
out of a set of n scores, where x is not included, use.
