LSC System Assessment Tool

INTRODUCTION

The System’s Assessment Tool has been developed in the form of a standardized Self-Assessment Scorecard for government officials in the state education system. The tool attempts to assess the preparedness of the state education system vis-à-vis Life Skills Education and its delivery at all levels – state, district, block and school (HOS and SMC/SMDC). 

The tool will assess the following outcomes:

  1. System’s appetite (policy provisions)
  2. System’s willingness (need, relevance and perception) 
  3. System preparedness (structural and budgetary provisions) 

The System’s Assessment Tool was developed based on a Formative Study that was necessitated by the gaps identified during the literature review. 

This has been designed in the form of a Scorecard and provides a practical tool to government officials for assessing their readiness and tracking their progress to deliver Life Skills Education at scale. The Scorecard provides insights into the system’s preparedness across various thematic areas and identifies gaps and strengths. This tool has been designed as a forward-looking instrument that can be used periodically with the same set of stakeholders to assess the progress made. The Scorecard has been translated into local languages for each of the four states – Marathi, Mizo and Hindi.

The Self-Assessment Scorecard is divided into six thematic sections which are based on the identified thematic areas for the assessment.

  • Policy Provisions for Life Skills Education
  • Inter-Departmental Coordination and Shared Decision Making
  • Budgetary Provisions for Life Skills Education
  • Teachers’ Education, Capacity Building and Resource Material for Life Skills Education
  • Life Skills Curriculum and Students’ Assessments
  • State Collaborations with NGOs/CSOs/External Agencies for Life Skills Education

Each of the above thematic sections can be assessed on a score range indicating a low, medium or high level of preparedness. This will support government officials to assess their own department’s preparedness on various parameters that support the effective delivery of Life Skills Education in secondary schools.
