Punjab's government schools have introduced a new system of daily quick tests, each lasting 10 minutes, to enhance student performance and academic tracking.
According to official sources, these quick tests are part of a broader initiative that includes monthly comprehensive assessments, which are also mandatory.
The aim is to identify and address students' academic weaknesses through regular evaluations, with detailed records to be maintained and reviewed during inspections.
Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) have been instructed to ensure the implementation of these tests and assessments in all government schools.
The marks obtained by students in these monthly tests and school-based assessments will be recorded on a portal, providing a comprehensive view of their academic progress.
School Education Secretary inspections will closely review the assessment registers to ensure compliance and effectiveness of the new system.
Officials believe that these measures will help in maintaining a high standard of education and ensuring that students are adequately prepared for their future academic endeavors.
The new system is expected to provide a more granular and frequent assessment of students' academic performance, enabling timely interventions and support.
