CISCE tells schools to assess students' fitness parameters, Kolkata teachers welcome move
Kolkata: Schools in the city have welcomed a new initiative of the Council for the Indian School Certificate Examinations, announced on Monday, as per which schools must assess and monitor students' physical fitness parameters from classes I to XII. The initiative, titled 'Active CISCE,' is aligned with the National Education Policy (NEP). The Council has made it mandatory for schools to regularly upload student fitness data on an upcoming portal, scheduled to be launched on July 15. The portal will facilitate fitness tracking and assessment. It will also feature age-specific test modules and video tutorials. Each registered student will receive an online assessment card to track their fitness progress, lifestyle indicators, and sports achievements. It will also have baseline fitness score, and lifestyle monitoring like diet, screen time, and sleep patterns. The Council has also linked class IX and XI registrations to the successful submission of physical health assessments for all students on the portal.

Rodney Borneo, principal of St. Augustine's Day School, Shyamnagar, said, "Ideally, the school is a partner with parents in the upbringing of a child; therefore, it is only logical that the school maintains a proper record of the students' health, which will come in handy in every situation.

Explorer Tremor: Ford's SUV Gets a Dirt-Ready Makeover
Ford trimmed the Explorer lineup in 2025, from eight variants to just four: Active, ST-Line, ST, and Platinum, effectively dropping the Timberline trim. The decision was aimed at simplifying production, streamlining inventory, and sharpening the Explorer's market identity. But while the new range covered versatility, sportiness, and luxury, something was missing: a truly rugged, trail-ready variant. That void is now filled with the arrival of the 2026 Ford Explorer Tremor. Joining the Tremor family, which includes the F-150, Expedition, Super Duty, and Maverick, the Explorer finally gains off-road credentials to match its adventurous name. Replacing the discontinued Timberline model, the Tremor marks a more focused approach to outdoor capability, packaged in a midsize SUV that's still built for family use. More than just a styling package, the new Tremor trim is a functional evolution of the Explorer designed for mud, rocks, and everything in between. Visually, the 2026 Explorer Tremor sets itself apart with a tough new look anchored by 18-inch black alloy wheels wrapped in all-terrain tires. A signature Electric Spice accent highlights a wheel spoke and is mirrored on the front and rear tow hooks, adding a splash of color to its rugged stance. Ford also fitted auxiliary off-road lighting, and although it hasn't published the approach and departure angles, they've been improved for trail use. An off-road-tuned suspension with recalibrated springs and sway bars raises the ride height by an inch, giving the Tremor better ground clearance. Underbody protection at both ends shields vital components from trail hazards. Inside, the Tremor blends function with premium features. The cabin includes Ford's latest Digital Experience interface, standard Copilot 360 Assist 2.0, and optional BlueCruise 1.5 for hands-free highway driving. Other high-end amenities – like massaging front seats and a 14-speaker B&O sound system – remind drivers that off-roaders can still have creature comforts. Under the hood, buyers can choose between two EcoBoost engines. The standard 2.3-liter turbocharged inline-four delivers 300 horsepower and 310 lb-ft of torque, while those craving more punch can opt for the 3.0-liter twin-turbo V6, shared with the Explorer ST and Ranger Raptor, producing 400 hp and 415 lb-ft. Both engines are paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission and a full-time 4WD system with a Torsen limited-slip differential. The 2026 Ford Explorer Tremor is set to arrive in dealerships later this year. Pricing hasn't been announced yet, but expect it to land between the ST-Line and Platinum trims. For families looking to trade pavement for trails, the Tremor finally gives the Explorer real off-road substance. Copyright 2025 The Arena Group, Inc. All Rights Reserved.
