ABSTRACT
Continuous assessment was introduced in schools following the adoption of 6-
3-3-4 system of education. The intention was to make assessment of the leaner more
reliable, valid, objective and comprehensive. Since the emphasis is now on the totality
of learning, it becomes necessary to evolve and use an assessment system that will
consider all aspects of teaching.
