Author Name : Dr. Ruchi Malhotra

ABSTRACT The present study was undertaken to study the perception of parents towards Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation in Himachal Pradesh. Parents were interviewed using interview schedule by the researcher for seeking their perceptions towards Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation. The observations made by the investigator on some items were that majority of parents are not aware, they don’t know what is pupil progress card and even they don’t know about the Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation system so have no opinion about its effect or whether it should be in the education system or not whereas the parents who were the state management committee members (SMC) were fully trained. The remaining parents who were not the members of the committee, as a result they had a little or no idea about the concept of Continuous and Comprehensive Evaluation.
