Ms. No. 33, Education (Exams) Department, dated 19.03.2001.
2. In the reference 5th read above, the Commissioner of School Education, A.P. Amaravati has stated that a State Level Workshop was organized on 29.05.2017 at Vijayawada on the implementation of the Continuation and Comprehensive Evaluation pattern and other examination reforms and the related G.Os issued by the Government from time to time. In all about 170 participated in the workshop, including Hon’ble Teacher M.L.Cs, representatives of Teachers Unions, Professors of NCERT, representatives of other State S.C.E.R.Ts (i.e., Kerala, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu), Director, RMSA, SPD SSA, RJDSEs, DEOs, Principals of DIETs, Principals of CTEs & IASEs, Dy.E.Os, MEOs, HMs, Teachers, Managements of Private Schools, Citizens and NGOs. The Workshop highlighted many issues and challenges being faced in implementing CCE pattern of evaluation and recent G.Os issued for the betterment of Assessment and Evaluation. Three of the key recommendations of the Workshop were to conduct only 2 Summative Assessments (as being done in Telangana, Karnataka and Kerala) instead of three (3), removing weightage for internal marks of classes VIII and IX in class X; and external evaluation of Summative Assessments.
