Competency-Based Education (CBE) is a pedagogical approach that shifts the focus from time spent in the classroom to mastery of learning outcomes. This paradigm empowers students to progress at their own pace, fostering deeper learning and a sense of ownership over their education. However, the successful implementation of CBE hinges on the preparedness of teachers. To effectively facilitate CBE, teachers require comprehensive professional development that equips them with the necessary skills and knowledge to design and deliver competency-based curricula, assess student progress authentically, and provide individualised support. By investing in teacher preparedness, educational institutions can ensure the successful implementation of CBE and maximise its benefits for students. This research study explores teachers’ preparedness in implementing competency-based assessments in CBSE schools in Bangalore. The results reemphasise the need for professional development. Teacher preparedness will be instrumental in fostering an education system that prioritises skills and competencies over rote learning, ultimately shaping a more capable and informed generation.
