Shillong: The Meghalaya Education Department has announced a new policy to implement common examinations for students in Classes 6 through 9. This initiative applies to all schools across the state, aiming to create a uniform assessment framework that promotes transparency and academic quality.
Under this new system, students will sit for standardized tests twice each year, specifically during mid-term and end-term periods. By utilizing secure and consistent procedures, the department intends to eliminate disparities in how students are evaluated, ensuring that children in both rural and urban areas are held to the same standards.
Officials believe this shift will significantly improve the state's education system. The department expects the change to strengthen classroom instruction, encourage teachers to complete the syllabus on time, and foster greater accountability. By tracking student performance more effectively, the government hopes to identify learning gaps early and provide a solid academic foundation for all students.
