Using a combination approach qualitative and quantitative using a questionnaire, interview and observation, the study used a sample consisting of 4 teachers of the 3rd cycle (7th grade), 38 students and 1 member of the management (pedagogical director). Research data reveal that teachers at the School Malhazine's Complete Primary, use continuous assessment activities such as: questions for the student to respond freely, encouragement for the student to participate in the class, guidance and correction of exercises and marking of homework. On the other hand, as a form of control and support for teachers in the use of continuous assessment, the school management has been monitoring regular lesson plans and attendance. However, despite the teacher giving homework, a large percentage of students say that they rarely or never guide the correction of works and rarely evaluates the organization of the notebook. Despite the divergence of opinions between students and teachers about the use of continuous assessment activities during the process of teaching and learning, most recognize its existence and its use during the class.
