Abstract
In India, independent assessments conducted
by organisations like ASER and Educational
Initiatives show that students in Government
schools are not learning well, and are not
acquiring the expected competencies in basic
literacy and numeracy. India has now enacted the
Right to Free and Compulsory Education (RTE)
for all children from 6-14 years of age. Attaining
the RTE goals on enrolment, access, equity, etc.
are meaningful, only if the education students
receive is of a desired quality. In our striving to
provide quality education for all, it is important
to establish two things –1. where we stand and
2. where we need to go. Well designed diagnostic
assessments provide a clear picture of where we
stand and are integral to any learning strategy
that leads us to where we need to go.
