NCERT Selects ETS For Establishing Assessment Regulator 'PARAKH'
The PARAKH initiative will set norms, standards and guidelines for student assessment and evaluation for all recognised school boards in India
ETS, the global educational assessment organisation, has been selected by National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) to support the set-up of India’s first national assessment regulator, PARAKH (Performance Assessment, Review and Analysis of Knowledge for Holistic Development).
The PARAKH initiative will set norms, standards and guidelines for student assessment and evaluation for all recognised school boards in India. This will put a heightened focus on building quality assessments to better measure and increase knowledge and skill acquisition across India.
PARAKH’s aims align with India’s NEP 2020 with the new regulator being established as the nation’s premier, official resource for all assessment-related information and expertise. PARAKH’s mandate is to support learning assessment in all forms.
