"The SNDT Women's University constituted an expert panel to review and validate the STAR (Standardised Test for Assessment and Review) competency framework, to be used for the various assessments established through it, an initiative of Oxford University Press.

The competency framework is holistic and robust, encompassing cognitive and affective domains. It helps to test the ability of students in scholastic and co-scholastic areas along with the behavioural aspects that can be applied to subjects such as science, mathematics, language at upper primary levels of education."
