Understanding prior learning
Where appropriate, teachers gently diagnose what a child already knows, so teaching starts from the right place — not too easy, not too hard.
Assessment & student development
Marks are useful, but they do not capture every aspect of a child's development. Assessment here exists to guide teaching and help every child improve.
Where appropriate, teachers gently diagnose what a child already knows, so teaching starts from the right place — not too easy, not too hard.
Short questions, quick tasks and observation during lessons show whether the class is following, so teaching can adjust immediately.
Regular, low-pressure written and oral assessments check retention and understanding without frightening young children.
Reading aloud, dictation, handwriting and spoken answers are assessed alongside written papers — especially in English and Hindi.
Charts, models and practical activities let children show understanding in ways a test paper cannot capture.
Participation, effort, habits and confidence are noticed and recorded over time, not judged from a single day.
Assessment results are used to find exactly where a child is stuck — a sound, an operation, a concept — so it can be fixed early.
Children who need more time receive revision and extra practice; children who are ready receive enrichment.
Progress is discussed honestly with parents — strengths, gaps and what can be done at school and at home.
