Fair & transparent

Assessments that measure understanding, not memorisation

Formative checks run through the year so gaps are caught early.

Term examinations mirror CBSE weightage for theory, practicals, and internal assessment.

Teacher feedback and parent reviews follow every major assessment cycle.

Our examination system emphasises learning assessment, analytical skills, and conceptual clarity. Both formative and summative assessments are conducted throughout the year so student progress is visible—not only at term-end.

Nalanda follows a well-structured examination framework aligned to CBSE guidelines: periodic tests, term examinations, practicals, projects, and board-oriented preparation for Classes X and XII. Teachers provide feedback and guidance after each cycle so students know exactly how to improve.

Assessment blocks and downloadable exam planners below can be updated from the school administration dashboard whenever schedules or circulars change.
