Introduction of Trimester Pattern in all Schools in Tamil Nadu

“the Trimester pattern will be  introduced in all schools in 
Tamil Nadu from the next academic year in order to reduce the 
load of the books on children as it causes physical strain to them. 
Accordingly, instead of having a single voluminous text book for 
each subject for the whole year, the academic year would be 
divided into three terms and for each term, there will be separate 
text book for each subject. At the end of each term, the 
Examination would be conducted under Continuous 
Comprehensive Evaluation. This would drastically eliminate 
worries, fearness and depression of the students besides reducing 
the physical strain caused by the load of books.”
