Benchmarking the Examination Processes

The process of EXAMINATION in any Educational Institution is a ceaselessly ongoing set of Dos & Don’ts which govern and control the ethical flow of the actions taken and reports submitted to the different levels of authorities for the seamless development of the institution and perennial progress of the learners.

In view of the above the following points have been mooted for the Community of Teachers and Mentors so as to maintain “Uniformity of Purpose” for furthering the interest of good governance in Education:

i. All Question Papers must be typed and printed on A4 size papers.

ii. The Pattern/font and size of heading & sub-heading etc. must be kept uniform as per plan/instruction.

iii. All question papers of Terminal Examinations must have accompanying Answer Keys and Marking Scheme.

iv. Checked answer sheets are to be submitted to the Examination Department after four days from the date of each paper for the ease of re-alloting the same for rechecking.

v. Master copies of each Q.P. must always be kept for record in the Annual File with the E.D.

vi. All subject teachers will make the Award Lists and exchange those with the respective class teachers within the stipulated period of time as specified from time to time.

vii. The onus of counting and collecting all the answer scripts from the examination venues and also left out supplementary sheets, graph papers, maps, thread and pins etc. rests on the Duty Invigilator who is supposed to submit all in the Examination Cell.

viii. Subject teachers are supposed to count the exact no. of papers in each bundle before collecting and entering in the record register for checking/correction and also submission after checking.

ix. On the basis of the subject Award Lists the Class Teachers will create the Class Result Sheets.
