How can we help you?

Exams in Vidyapeeth360 follow a simple, familiar path: create a term, add the papers (the individual subject exams) inside it, enter marks, and publish results. Every grade is worked out on your own school's board scale — whether you follow CBSE, ICSE, or a state board — so what teachers, parents and students see always matches your board's rules, with no grade tables to maintain by hand.

The module is built for India's continuous-assessment reality. Each paper can be tagged as formative or summative, so your CCE and NEP reporting rolls up correctly across the whole year. And because results are something families trust, publishing a term locks its marks — with a clean way to reopen and correct if something slips through.

Access is role-aware, because this touches sensitive student data. Teachers can enter marks for the classes and sections they teach; principals, vice-principals and admins can create terms and papers and manage the grading scale.

How it works

The flow is always the same four stages: Terms → Papers → Marks → Publish.

• A term is a reporting period like Term 1 or Half-Yearly, with an academic year and start and end dates.
• A paper is one subject exam inside a term — for a specific class and section, with maximum marks, pass marks, an exam date, and a CCE assessment type.
• Marks are entered against a live class roster, with a running grade preview so you see the letter grade as you type.
• Publishing finalises the term and locks it.

Step by step

1. Go to Academics → Exams & Results and create a term — give it a name (e.g. Term 1), pick the academic year, and set the start and end dates.
2. Inside the term, add a paper for each subject. Choose the class and section, set maximum marks and pass marks, the exam date, and the assessment type — formative or summative (anything left unclassified is counted as summative).
3. Open the paper to enter marks. You'll see the full class roster and a live grade preview. Scores are automatically kept within the paper's maximum; mark a student Absent to leave them out of the calculation.
4. Check the CCE summary for a class-section to see each student's formative-versus-summative averages across all the year's papers — exactly what NEP-aligned holistic reporting needs.
5. When you're ready, publish the term. This marks results published and locks the marks, so they can't be quietly changed after families have seen them.

To fix a mistake after publishing, use Reopen marks — it unlocks editing without un-publishing the term. Correct the score, then publish again.

Results and board exports

• The Results view gives each student's totals and their class rank, ordered by percentage.
• The Board export produces a ready-to-use layout for your board's portal (such as CBSE OASIS, ICSE, or your state board), defaulting to the board configured for your school.

Tips and best practices

• Tag every paper honestly as formative or summative when you create it — that's what makes the CCE and NEP rollups meaningful. Untagged papers are treated as summative.
• Set pass marks per paper, not just maximum marks, so grade previews and pass/fail read correctly.
• Publish only when marks are final. The lock is a feature, not a limitation — it stops accidental edits after results go out. Keep Reopen marks for genuine corrections.
• Confirm your grading scale matches your board before the first term; you can always re-pull it from your board's standard scale later.

FAQ

Q: Can a teacher edit another class's marks? A: No. A classroom teacher can only view and enter marks for the classes and sections they're assigned to teach. Principals, vice-principals and admins have full access.

Q: What if I need to change a mark after publishing? A: Use Reopen marks on the term. It unlocks editing without un-publishing, so you can correct the score and then publish again.

Q: How does the board affect grading? A: Every grade uses your school's configured board scale, so letter grades, pass marks and report layouts follow CBSE, ICSE or your state board automatically.

Q: What does the CCE summary show? A: For a chosen class and section, it shows each student's formative and summative averages across every paper in the academic year — the continuous-assessment picture NEP reporting expects.
