​Key Changes to the SSC Examination Pattern & ​Guidelines for Formative Assessment (FA) Marks 2025-26

 The Telangana government's Director of Government Examinations has issued new guidelines for the March 2025 SSC Public Examinations, which include changes to the examination pattern and the method for calculating and submitting Formative Assessment (FA) marks, also known as internal marks.

​Key Changes to the Examination Pattern

• ​The number of SSC question papers has been reduced from 11 to 6, with one paper for each subject.

• ​The grading system has been replaced with a marks system, starting with the 2024-25 academic year.

• ​The final SSC result for each subject will be out of a total of 100 marks. This is composed of 80 marks from the Summative Assessment (the single question paper) and the remaining from the Formative Assessment marks.

​Guidelines for Formative Assessment (FA) Marks

• ​FA marks will be calculated by averaging the scores from four formative tests.

• ​The marks should be rounded off to the nearest whole number. For example, an average of 13.5 is rounded up to 14, while an average of 13.1 to 13.4 is rounded down to 13.

• ​If a student is absent for a formative test, the sum of the marks from the tests they did take will be divided by four. For instance, if a student was absent for the 4th test, the marks from the first three tests would be added up and divided by four to get the final FA mark.

​Online Submission and Verification Process

• ​The online portal for Headmasters and Principals to upload internal marks will be open from February 21, 2025, to February 28, 2025.

• ​Headmasters must personally oversee the entire process of feeding marks online. Once marks are entered and confirmed, no corrections can be made.

• ​Headmasters are required to prepare and maintain cumulative records of all four formative tests for each student. Teachers and Headmasters must sign these records to authenticate them.

• ​After entering the marks online, Headmasters must take printouts and have students verify and sign them to ensure accuracy.

• ​Verification teams, constituted by District Educational Officers (DEOs), will verify the uploaded marks and records between February 5, 2025, and February 25, 2025.

• ​Negligence in this process, such as awarding marks without conducting tests, can result in imprisonment of five to ten years and a fine of ten thousand to one lakh rupees, as per the provisions of Act 25 of 1997.

​Exemptions and Special Cases

• ​For Children with Special Needs (CwSN) who are exempt from one or two languages, the online portal will have those fields disabled.

• ​For genuinely physically handicapped candidates not identified as CwSN in the student data, Headmasters must enter '0' for the internal marks of the concerned languages. However, the Headmaster must have already submitted the candidate's disability certificate to the Director of Government Examinations, or the candidate's result will be declared "Withheld".
