Summative, Formative

How do we reschedule an exam?

Exams cannot be rescheduled for any reason (sickness, family functions, competitions etc). Even timings on that day itself also cannot be changed. For certain standards, some exams can be taken in an online format. However, those students will not be considered in the topper’s list. All this information and protocols related to this are shared closer to the actual exam date.

How are exam grades allotted?

The 8 – point grading scale is a CBSE format requirement. Under this, the marks are converted into percentages and then graded accordingly. The percentage ranges are listed at the bottom of the result shared with you. These will help you understand the comparison of your child’s scores with the grades given in the result.

What are summative and formative exams?

Summative assessment is calculated based on the formal written exams conducted at the end of each quarter. 

Formative assessment is based on the Walmiki MCQ Test Bytes, short tests, orals, classroom participation and submissions that happen over the quarter.
