The goal of the National Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020) is to promote holistic student development and maximize learning outcomes through major improvements in educational assessment. In light of NEP 2020, this report examines recent advancements in educational assessment. It looks at important changes like moving from summative to formative assessment, creating a 360-degree holistic progress card, changing board exams to provide options and flexibility, monitoring student progress through exams in Grades 3, 5, and 8, and creating the National Assessment Centre, PARAKH. The National Testing Agency's (NTA) function in developing student talent and standardizing entrance tests for universities is also covered. NEP 2020 seeks to establish a dynamic educational ecosystem through these reforms that meets the varied requirements of students and is in line with the objectives of the twenty-first century and the Sustainable Development Goals of 2030.
