<p>It was introduced as part of the CBSE’s examination reforms and the continuous and comprehensive evaluation (CCE) in the academic year 2009-10. Two SAs and four Formative Assessments (FAs) will be held in an academic year. Under SA-I, students will be tested internally based on the syllabus and pattern of a examination question paper in different subjects.<br /><br />As done earlier, SA-I will be a pen-paper test. The CBSE will send the question paper bank in English Communicative, English Language and Literature, Hindi-A, Hindi-B, Mathematics, Science, Social Science, and Communicative Sanskrit subjects to the schools well in time. For other subjects, schools will have to prepare their own question papers based on the sample pattern. <br /><br />The answer scripts will be evaluated by the school teachers themselves on the basis of the marking scheme. Officials/nominees appointed by the Board, however, can randomly verify the assessment procedures. <br /> <br />Schools should not send the answer books of SA-I to the Board. Details can be had from website www.cbse.nic.in or contact Dr Srijata Das, Education Officer, CBSE, Rouse Avenue, New Delhi-110002 or call 011-23237779 or write to eoscience@live.com.</p>
