Important Instructions:

1. Implementation of Competency-Based Assessment Framework:
   Cluster Heads must ensure that the assessment pattern follows a competency-based framework rather than rote-based evaluation. This aligns with the objectives of NEP 2020, which promotes conceptual understanding and skill-based learning.
2. Designing Competency-Based Assessment Tools:
   Schools must develop assessment tools and question papers up to Class 8th following a competency-based format that evaluates understanding and practical application rather than memorization.
3. Holistic Progress Card (HPC):
   Teachers are required to effectively use the Holistic Progress Card (HPC) to reflect the formative progress of students up to the middle stage. This will provide a detailed overview of students’ cognitive, emotional, and skill-based growth.
4. PARAKH and NAS Pattern Integration:
   The assessment tools should be developed in line with PARAKH (Performance Assessment, Review, and Analysis of Knowledge for Holistic Development) and National Achievement Survey (NAS) frameworks. These patterns ensure uniformity in evaluation and help measure learning outcomes effectively.
5. Monitoring and Evaluation:
   Cluster Heads must conduct effective monitoring and evaluation of the exams. They will be responsible for ensuring fairness, adherence to guidelines, and smooth coordination between schools.
6. Data Management:
   All data related to student assessments and results will be compiled and managed by DIET Kulgam. Cluster Heads are required to submit all relevant records and performance data promptly after the examinations.
7. Communication and Compliance:
   The Chief Education Officer (CEO) Kulgam has been informed of this schedule to ensure all schools comply with the new structure and conduct the exams in an organized manner.
