Education and how we assess and support our students are evolving. The Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE), guided by the principles of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 , is pioneering a revolutionary approach to student evaluation with the Holistic Progress Cards (HPC). This paradigm shift in assessment is designed to nurture every student's creative potential and holistic development, moving beyond traditional rote memorization techniques to embrace a more comprehensive, learner-centric model. What is a Holistic Progress Cards? The Holistic Progress Card (HPC) is a detailed report highlighting each student's growth and individuality. It assesses learners not only on their knowledge and skills but also on their social, ethical, and emotional traits. The goal is to offer a complete picture of student development, spanning cognitive, emotional, social, and physical aspects.
