| الملخص: | Measurement of learners' achievement in schools continues to be a great
concern to educational administrators, teachers and guardians. Learner's status
in the school, his/her future endeavors and many other personal attributes
depend on achievements in school examinations. Though examination is a
crucial factor in the formal education system it is not presently seen as an
important clement in BRAC's NFPE programme. Learners once admitted to the
NFPE school are expected . to complete the three year course unless one is
dropped or moved out. Teachers rate their learners regularly in the class and
provide remedial measures should it be necessary. This is the common approach
in the non formal system but it does not provide indicators . that accurately
measure students' cognitive performance and skills. After completion of NFPE
schooling, most of the learners arc expected to enter into the government
primary schools either in grade IV or V depending on the result of some sort
of admission test. As BRAC's NFPE programme includes quality inputs, the
standard of output, ie., the learners' achievements are expected to be of high
quality. That is why, it is all the more necessary that the NFPE graduates
should be evaluated in reference to particular achievement criteria ie., test
scores, so that necessary measures can be taken and changes required are
incorporated in the programme for ensuring the quality set' for it.
