What is Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE)?

Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation (CCE) refers to a system of school-based evaluation of students that covers all aspects of students' development. It is a developmental process of assessment which emphasizes on two fold objectives. These objectives are continuity in evaluation and assessment of broad based learning and behaviourial outcomes on the other.

In this scheme the term `continuous' is meant to emphasise that evaluation of identified aspects of students' `growth and development' is a continuous process rather than an event, built into the total teaching-learning process and spread over the entire span of academic
session. It means regularity of assessment, frequency of unittesting, diagnosis of learning gaps, use of corrective measures, retesting and for their self evaluation.

The second term `comprehensive' means that the scheme attempts to cover both the scholastic and the coscholastic aspects of students' growth and development
