three major areas

The objective of Parakh is to improve the quality, standard and value system of school education. PARAKH will be an independent organization affiliated to the Ministry of Education which will conduct large scale assessment in three key areas – National Achievement Survey, School Based Assessment and thirdly Capacity Building. Sevak said that our first step is to develop some standard and standardized guidelines for evaluation.

 

Continuously new ways to assess students

This includes summative testing and frequent new methods of assessing students. Emphasizing on the diversity in school education in India due to geographical differences and multiple languages, Sevak said Parakh will bring uniformity in assessment across 62 boards across 36 states and union territories.
