Notice from CBSE

Dear Principal,

We are pleased to announce the release of the School Reports for the pilot of the Structured Assessment For Analyzing Learning (SAFAL) conducted in February 2023.

About SAFAL

SAFAL, a competency-based assessment as per the recommendation at the para 4.40 of the NEP 2020, was launched by CBSE in its affiliated schools in July 2021. It is an annual diagnostic assessment to be conducted for Grades 3, 5 and 8 to test student achievement in curricular areas of Mathematics, Language and EVS/Science. The SAFAL pilot was conducted in February 2023 for classes 5 and 8 in 1887 CBSE affiliated schools with the objective of testing administrative and technical readiness for conducting SAFAL at a large scale. Additionally, the data collected from the SAFAL pilot was used to guide the standard setting process for SAFAL.
