One register.
Not two.
The HPC was designed as a wider view of marks your teachers already enter. In most schools it has become a second workbook, hand-reconciled the week before parent–teacher meetings. Relearns derives it instead.

Locked
Sign the rows. Watch the lock.
The lock model is per-row: a subject teacher signs off her row once the marks are final, and floated marks reach the class teacher only after that sign-off. The principal’s lock is gated server-side on completeness. Try to lock this one early.
We added the server-side gate after a school nearly issued an HPC with two subjects still unsaved — the kind of error that surfaces only at the parent–teacher meeting. Unlock exists for the real world: principal only, written reason, fully audited.
What the HPC adds, and what it never touches.
PARAKH (the national assessment unit set up at NCERT in 2023) authored the HPC templates, one per school stage. The most useful way to read them is as two lists.
Adds The wider view
- Cognitive, socio-emotional and psychomotor domains, framed on Panchakosha.
- 360-degree input: teacher observation, student self-assessment, peer reflection, a short parent window.
- Narrative descriptors for strengths and growth areas, captured through the term.
- Competency progress against CBSE’s published learning outcomes.
- Stage-specific templates: Foundational, Preparatory, Middle and Secondary. A Class 3 HPC does not look like a Class 9 HPC.
Keeps What parents already know
- Subject marks out of 100: the 80-mark paper plus the 20-mark Internal Assessment.
- The 9-point grades and grade points parents recognise.
- CGPA and the ×9.5 indicative percentage.
- Co-scholastic grades on their own 5-point A–E scale, never averaged into the scholastic result.
- The marks card itself. The HPC widens the lens; it deletes nothing.
It reads from the marks register. It does not copy it.
The teacher does not enter anything twice. Where qualitative input is needed, a small narrative field sits next to each student row, fillable any time during the term. The most common DIY-spreadsheet mistake, averaging a co-scholastic letter into the scholastic result, is structurally impossible here: the two halves are stored on the scales they belong to.
| Internal Assessment PT best-2-of-3 + MA + Portfolio + SE | 19.0 /20 |
| Annual / Board paper | 71 /80 |
| Subject total → HPC scholastic table | 90.0 /100 |
| Grade · grade point | A2 · 9 |
The PDF a parent actually holds.
Fonts ship as static files inside the report template, so the print never falls back to a system font on the school’s laptop. The same HPC printed in Lucknow and Bengaluru looks identical, the scholastic table avoids mid-row page breaks, and the school logo sits in the header on screen and in print.
Through the term, parents get a weekly digest — learned, struggled, next — and a class-teacher note before parent–teacher meetings. At term-end, this PDF, produced by the same pipeline that prints for parents.

What exactly is the Holistic Progress Card?
The HPC is a report card format that PARAKH (the national assessment unit at NCERT) authored after NEP 2020 was published. It adds cognitive, socio-emotional and psychomotor dimensions to the report card, captures 360-degree input from teacher, student, peers and parent, and reports against competencies and learning outcomes alongside grades. There are stage-specific templates for Foundational, Preparatory, Middle and Secondary stages.
Does the HPC replace marks and CGPA?
No. CBSE continues to issue marks, CGPA on the 9-point scale, and the indicative percentage. The HPC widens the report card; it does not delete the numbers parents recognise. Both layers are in the same view.
How does Relearns build the HPC without doubling teacher workload?
The HPC reads from the same data your teachers already enter for Periodic Tests and Internal Assessment, plus light qualitative notes added inline through the term. There is no second workbook to maintain. The teacher signs off once, per student row; the HPC view updates as a downstream consequence.
What about the qualitative and 360-degree parts?
Self-assessment from the student, peer reflection during group work, and a short parent input window before term-end. Teacher narrative is captured inline whenever the teacher writes one: a small text field next to each student row, not a separate report-card composition task at the end of term.
Can we export and print the HPC?
Yes: PDF export per student, in the HPC layout, with the school logo and the right typography, bundled as static fonts so the print never falls back to a system substitute. Parents can also see the live HPC inside the parent workspace at any time during the term.
Can a principal lock the HPC early, with rows still unsigned?
No. The principal can sign off the HPC only after every offered scholastic subject row plus the co-scholastic domains the school is running have been signed off by their teachers. The completeness gate is a server-side check, not a UI nudge. It has saved real schools from issuing an inconsistent report card under deadline.
