National Programme on School Standards and Evaluation (NPSSE)
The need for effective schools and
improving school performance is increasingly felt in the Indian education
system to provide quality education for all children. The quality initiatives
in school education sector, thus, necessitate focusing on school, its
performance and improvement. Therefore, a growing emphasis is being placed upon
developing a comprehensive and holistic school evaluation system as central to
school improvement. The National University of Educational Planning and
Administration (NUEPA), under the aegis of Ministry of Human Resource Development
(MHRD), is leading the National Programme on School Standards and Evaluation
(NPSSE). The NPSSE is an initiative that aims at evaluating each school as an
institution and creating a culture of self-progression with accountability. The
NPSSE visualizes ‘School Evaluation’ as the means and ‘School Improvement’ as
the goal. The programme envisions reaching all schools of the country by
creating a sustainable and institutionalized system of school evaluation.
Therefore, it seeks to develop a common understanding across stakeholders– of
the what, the why and the how of school evaluation.
“In view of the great need to
improve standards of education at the school stage, we recommend that a
nationwide programme of school improvement should be developed in which conditions
will be created for each school to strive continually to achieve the best
results of which it is capable” Education Commission, 1964-66
