2. In the reference 5th read above, the
Commissioner of School Education, A.P. Amaravati has stated that a State Level
Workshop was organized on 29.05.2017 at Vijayawada on the implementation of the
Continuation and Comprehensive Evaluation pattern and other examination reforms
and the related G.Os issued by the Government from time to time. In all about
170 participated in the workshop, including Hon’ble Teacher M.L.Cs,
representatives of Teachers Unions, Professors of NCERT, representatives of
other State S.C.E.R.Ts (i.e., Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu), Director, RMSA,
SPD SSA, RJDSEs, DEOs, Principals of DIETs, Principals of CTEs & IASEs,
Dy.E.Os, MEOs, HMs, Teachers, Managements of Private Schools, Citizens and
NGOs. The Workshop highlighted many
issues and challenges being faced in implementing CCE pattern of evaluation and
recent G.Os issued for the betterment of Assessment and Evaluation. Three of
the key recommendations of the Workshop were to conduct only 2 Summative
Assessments (as being done in Telangana, Karnataka and Kerala) instead of three
(3), removing weightage for internal marks of classes VIII and IX in class X;
and external evaluation of Summative Assessments. To implement these three
recommendations of the Workshop, the Commissioner of School Education, A.P.
Amaravati has proposed certain amendments/additions to the related G.Os issued
during the 2013, 2015 and 2016 and requested to bring out these amendments into
effect from the current academic year i.e. 2017-18. Hence, she has requested to conduct 2
Summative Assessments instead of 3 Summative Assessments.
3. In the circumstances reported by the
Commissioner of School Education, A.P. Amaravati and keeping in view of the
recommendations of the workshop held on 29.05.2017, after careful examination
of the matter, Government have decided to conduct two Summative Assessments
instead of three Summative Assessments for classes VI to X and accordingly
hereby order that wherever the term three (3) Summative Assessments are
occurred in the G.Os 2nd and 4th read above, shall be read as two Summative
Assessments. And, Government also hereby issue amendment to para 4 B (2) (iv)
and (v) of the G.Os 2nd and 4th read
above.
