The main challenges were no proper training for teachers and monitoring mechanism and no training imparted on CCE for teachers at private schools. Teachers lack expertise on curricular and co-curricular areas. Many teachers pay attention on recording grades. The concern was lack of understanding about the true objective and nature of CCE and managing the administrative work related to CCE along with no detention policy and problem related to FA and SA marks, grading.
Internal and external evaluation pressure was there on teachers. No instructions were issued to improve student’s talents. Many defects were noticed on weightage of marks while promoting students from Class VIII, IX to Class X, corrections of answer sheets at same school for Class VI to IX and provide project work, drawing books, story books to government schools.
MLC K Narasimha Reddy said that district wise competitions are to be removed in Class X results, forcible completion of syllabus to be removed and then formality assessment would be effectively implemented, he added.
