tion for class X from academic Year 2017-18 onward. This

new scheme will bring the uniformity in the system of as-

sessment and examination for classes IX and X in all the

CBSE affiliated schools. To increase the confidence in the

students to start preparing for class X Board examination

when they join the upper primary stage. The CBSE has

decided to implement the uniform system of assessment,

examination pattern. While keeping in view the provisions

of Right to education Act, 2009, the scheme has been

designed on Term Assessment basis with gradual increase

‘quality of education’.
