Marking Scheme
Strictly Confidential
(For Internal and Restricted use only)
Senior Secondary School Examination, 2026 (XIIth)
SUBJECT NAME: - PHYSICAL EDUCATION (Q.P. CODE : 048/75)

General Instructions: -
1 The CBSE has decided to introduce On Screen Marking (OSM) for the evaluation of
m
co
Class XII answer Book with the 2026 Examination.

c om
You are aware that evaluation is the most important process in the actual and
.
correct assessment of the candidates. A small mistake in evaluation may lead to
e m .
e m
serious problems which may affect the future of the candidates, education system
l as
l as
and teaching profession. To avoid mistakes, it is requested that before starting
evaluation, you must read and understand the spot evaluation guidelines carefully.

“Evaluation policy is a confidential policy as it is related to the confidentiality
of the examinations conducted, evaluation done and several other aspects.
Its leakage to public in any manner could lead to derailment of the
examination system and affect the life and future of millions of candidates.
Sharing this policy/document to anyone, publishing in any magazine and
printing in Newspaper/Website, etc. may invite action under various rules of
the Board and IPC.”
4 Evaluation is to be done as per instructions provided in the Marking Scheme. It
should not be done according to one’s own interpretation or any other
consideration. Marking Scheme should be strictly adhered to and religiously
followed. However, while evaluating, answers which are based on latest
information or knowledge and/or are innovative, they may be assessed for

m
their correctness otherwise and due marks be awarded to them. In Class-XII,

.co
while evaluating two competency-based questions, please try to understand
given answer and even if reply is not from marking scheme but correct

e m
competency is enumerated by the candidate, due marks should be awarded.
5

l as
The Marking scheme carries only suggested value points for the answers.
These are in the nature of Guidelines only and do not constitute the complete

ag
answer. The students can have their own expression and if the expression is
correct, the due marks should be awarded accordingly.
6 The Head-Examiner must go through the first five answer books evaluated by each
evaluator on the first day, to ensure that evaluation has been carried out as per the
instructions given in the Marking Scheme. If there is any variation, the same should
be zero after deliberation and discussion. The remaining answer books meant for
evaluation shall be given only after ensuring that there is no significant variation in
the marking of individual evaluators.
7 Evaluators will mark ( √ ) wherever answer is correct. For wrong answer CROSS ‘X’
be marked. Evaluators will not put right (✓) while evaluating which gives an
impression that answer is correct and no marks are awarded. This is most
common mistake which evaluators are committing.
m
.co
8 If a question has parts, please award marks on the right-hand side for each part in

m
the OSM Portal. Marks awarded for different parts of the question will be totaled up

.co m
by the OSM System.

m
9 If a question does not have any parts, marks must be awarded in the left-hand
s e
s e margin in the OSM Portal. This may also be followed strictly.

10 If a student has attempted an extra question, answer of the question deserving
more marks should be retained and the other answer scored out with a note “Extra
Question”.
11 No marks to be deducted for the cumulative effect of an error. It should be
penalized only once.
12 A full scale of marks __________ (example 0 to 80/70/60/50/40/30 marks as given
in Question Paper) has to be used. Please do not hesitate to award full marks if the
answer deserves it.
13 Every examiner has to necessarily do evaluation work for full working hours i.e., 8
hours every day and evaluate 20 answer books per day in main subjects and 25
answer books per day in other subjects (Details are given in Spot Guidelines).This
is in view of the reduced syllabus and number of questions in question paper.
14 Ensure that you do not make the following common types of errors committed by
the Examiner in the past :-
● Answers marked as correct, but marks not awarded. (Ensure that the right tick
mark is correctly and clearly indicated. It should merely be a line. Same is with
the X for incorrect answer.)
● Half or a part of answer marked correct and the rest as wrong, but no marks
awarded.
15 While evaluating the answer books if the answer is found to be totally incorrect, it
should be marked as cross (X) and awarded zero (0) Marks.
16 The Examiners should acquaint themselves with the guidelines given in the
“Guidelines for Spot Evaluation” before starting the actual evaluation.
17 The candidates are entitled to obtain photocopy of the Answer Book on request on
payment of the prescribed processing fee. All Examiners/Additional Head
Examiners/Head Examiners are once again reminded that they must ensure that
evaluation is carried out strictly as per value points for each answer as given in the
Marking Scheme.
18 If a candidate attempts both alternatives/options in a question where only one
option/ alternative is required to be attempted, the Evaluator shall award
marks in both the options. The system will take the higher of two scores and
disregard the other response.
19 In a question having two options/alternatives, if a candidate has attempted
only one, then the evaluator shall mark “NA” (Not attempted) against the
option that has not been attempted by the candidate.

(b) When a cricket and tennis ball are thrown with the same force,

e l as
l as
Ans: Step -1:(a) The Newton's third law of motion applies when a
swimmer pushes against the water with his arms and legs to propel
ag
ag
himself forward the water exerts an equal and opposite reaction force
backward on the swimmer. This reaction forces of the water allows the
swimmer to move forward through the water. - (1 mark)

Step 2: (b) The Newton's Second law of motion applies, according to
this law acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the
magnitude of the net force and inversely proportional to the mass of the
object, greater the mass an object more net force has to be used to
move it. So, if the same force is used to throw the cricket ball and a
tennis ball, the tennis ball will have more acceleration because it has
less mass than the cricket ball. - (1 mark)

players? Explain.
Ans: Step 1: Motivation: “Motivation is the driving force that spurs a
person to action. It can be explained as a process to initiate, guide and
maintain behaviour over time”, as defined by Robert Baron (2008).
Motivation can also be defined simply as the direction and intensity of
effort. (1 mark)

conductive environment by minimising societal pressure and getting
support of peer group and family. - (1 mark)
Step 5: Incentives and rewards: Drive towards an action to maintain it

37. 1+2+2=5 What is speed? Explain the methods to develop speed in detail.

Ans: Step 1: Speed: “The capacity of an individual to perform
successive movements of the same pattern at a fast rate”.
Or
“Speed is the ability to move the body or any body part as fast as
possible in the minimum time.” – (1 mark)
(Or any other relevant definition)
Methods to develop speed:
Step 2: Acceleration run: It is generally used to develop speed while
attaining maximum speed from a static position. In an acceleration run,
a sportsperson must run a specific distance. After starting, the athlete
tries to gain total momentum at the earliest and finishes the specified
distance. These runs are repeated with sufficient rest between the runs.
The number of acceleration runs can be set according to an athlete’s
age, capacity, and fitness level. - (2 mark)
Step 3: Pace Runs: Pace runs incorporate the method of running the set
distance at a uniform speed. It usually includes races of 800 meters and
above. At the beginning of such races, the speed should not be too high
and the pace should be maintained throughout the race. For this type of
training the athlete should run at a maximum steady speed for a
distance 10-20% more than the actual racing distance. Repetition for
pace run training can be fixed as per the athlete’s fitness level with
complete recovery in between repetitions. - (2 mark)
