This is the card the parent receives — computed results rendered onto the correct board format (CBSE, ICSE, State Board, NEP 2020 Holistic Progress Card), and the cumulative academic record kept across years. The document and the record, not the grading.

Report cards & academic records owns the document at the end of the assessment cycle — the board-correct report card a parent receives, and the cumulative academic record kept for each student across years. Its job is rendering and record-keeping, not computing: it takes results that have already been graded and lays them onto the right board's format — CBSE (Sahodaya), ICSE, State Board, or the NEP 2020 Holistic Progress Card. The grade itself — 80+20, 9-point, FA/SA — is computed by the examinations feature; the exam cycle (schedule, marks entry) is the exams-and-assessments solution; the teacher remark is the report-card-narration feature; result trends are analytics & reporting. This page is the card and the record.
Mrs Menon's school runs CBSE and a State Board wing, and is piloting the NEP HPC in the primary years. At term-end she doesn't build four kinds of card by hand — each renders to its board. Note the last column: every figure is computed elsewhere and rendered here.
| Board / stage | Card format | What's rendered onto it | Figures computed by |
|---|---|---|---|
| CBSE (IX–X) | Sahodaya format | grades, 9-point, FA/SA | → examinations |
| CBSE (XI–XII) | CBSE senior format | marks + grade | → examinations |
| State Board wing | State format | state grading pattern | → examinations |
| Primary (pilot) | NEP 2020 HPC | holistic domains, PARAKH | → examinations + narration |
| All cards | → rendered & filed | to the academic record | this page |
Cards built in Word or Excel vary section to section — different fonts, different layouts, the odd arithmetic slip — so the school's report card looks inconsistent and a re-totalling error reaches a parent.
A CBSE wing and a State Board wing get forced into one template that satisfies neither board exactly, and the NEP HPC becomes a separate manual exercise nobody has time for.
Past cards live as loose printouts in a cupboard, so when a transfer certificate or a board record is needed, someone spends a morning digging — and a year's card is simply missing.
The marks were already computed in the exam module, then typed again into the card template by hand — the same figures entered twice, inviting exactly the errors a report card can't afford.
The results have already been graded — marks entered and the grade computed by the examinations feature against the board's scheme. This page begins where that ends: with figures ready to be laid onto a card, not raw marks to calculate.
Each section's card is set to its board — the CBSE Sahodaya format, the ICSE format, a State Board's format, or the NEP 2020 Holistic Progress Card — so a school running more than one board produces each on its own correct card.
The computed grades, the CGPA or FA/SA figures, and the teacher's remark (written in report-card-narration) are laid onto the chosen format in the right places, so the card reads exactly as that board expects.
The finished card is generated for review and then published to the parent — the document the family actually receives, board-correct and consistent across the class, rather than a hand-built sheet that varies teacher to teacher.
Each term's card is kept in the student's cumulative academic record across years, so the school holds a complete history — for a transfer certificate, a board requirement, or seeing a child's progression — while result trends are read in analytics & reporting.
The CBSE report card in the Sahodaya format with 9-point grading and FA/SA structure, and the ICSE format — each rendered as its board specifies, from the results the examinations feature computes.
The HPC for the Foundational and Preparatory stages, reporting across holistic domains aligned to the PARAKH framework — produced from the same results and record as a traditional card, not as a separate manual exercise.
The major State Board card formats, with regional-language support, plus the cumulative academic record that keeps every term's card across years — the durable history behind each term's snapshot.
Framework references: CBSE Sahodaya report-card format + 9-point grading; ICSE/CISCE format; State Board formats; NEP 2020 Holistic Progress Card (Foundational + Preparatory) aligned to PARAKH. The grade computation (80+20, 9-point, FA/SA) is owned by the examinations feature; the exam cycle by the exams-and-assessments solution; the teacher remark by report-card-narration; result trends by school-analytics-reporting. This page renders the card and keeps the record.
SchoolDeck keeps the card document distinct from the grading engine, the exam workflow, the remark writer and the analytics on purpose — five jobs that meet at "results," so this page ranks for the report card and never competes with the exam or analytics pages.
The format library is the same; which card matters shifts with the school.
A CBSE school produces every section's card to the Sahodaya format with 9-point grading, consistent across the school — no teacher-to-teacher variation, the marks rendered straight from examinations.
A school with a CBSE wing and a State Board wing sets each section to its format, so each parent receives the card their board expects — from one system, without a compromise template.
A school moving its primary years to the NEP HPC produces the holistic card from the same results and academic record, with domains and the narration remark — not as a separate manual exercise.
"I run the exam cell, and term-end used to be the week I dreaded — once the marks were graded, we still had to build every report card by hand, and ours is not a simple school: we have a CBSE wing, a State Board wing, and we've started the NEP Holistic Progress Card in the primary classes. Three different cards, built in templates, with the marks re-typed from the exam sheets — which is exactly where a slip reaches a parent. Now the results come across already graded from the exam module, and this lays them onto the right card for each section automatically. I want to be precise about the division of labour, because I asked: it doesn't calculate the grade — that's the examinations side — and it doesn't write the remark, that's the narration tool. What it does is produce the correct card for each board and keep every term's card in the child's record, so when a transfer certificate is needed it's all there. The trends and dashboards I look at separately in the analytics page. Each thing in its place — that's what finally made term-end calm."
What every exam cell in-charge and Principal asks before they move report cards off hand-built templates.
We'll show you the board-format library — CBSE, ICSE, State Board and the NEP 2020 Holistic Progress Card — rendering computed results onto the right card, and the cumulative academic record across years, on your school's actual data.
