Education Minister to Address NEP related Students' Queries on October 1st
The NEP (National Education Policy), which was approved by the Union Cabinet of India on July 29, 2020, diagrams the vision of India's new training framework. The policy is a thorough structure for rudimentary instruction to advanced education just as professional preparing in both provincial and metropolitan India. The strategy plans to change India's training framework by 2030.
Education Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank will address students’ queries on the New Education Policy (NEP) 2020 on October 1. The live session will be held on minister’s official social media handles. The candidates can ask questions with hashtag #NEPTransformingIndia.
The education minister through his Twitter informed, “Dear students, on 1st October I will be answering all your queries related to #NEP2020 that you shared earlier with me on my Twitter page. Save the Date and feel free to spread the word.”
Since the dispatch of the New Instruction Strategy, a few online classes and gatherings are being directed to examine the activity plan of the approach. Recently, the government organised Shiksha Parv from September 8 to 25, where Prime Minister Narendra Modi addressed students at the School Education Conclave.
Modi said that by 2022 each student will be advanced into the NEP. "Presently, understudies won't need to be restricted to the watertight limits of commerce, science, and humanities and will pick any subjects they need to pick. It will bring the focal point of imprints and imprint sheet based instruction back to learning based training," Modi said.
The NEP replaces the 34-year-old policy and brings major changes in school to the college level of education as well as the hiring of teachers. Among major changes proposed under NEP are changing 10+2 school system to 5+3+3+4 format, diluting the board exams and changing the assessment system, teaching in mother tongue till at least class 5, the common entrance exam for admission to colleges, multiple exits and entry points in college degrees, setting up of Academic Bank of Credit, replacing UGC, AICTE, NAAC with a single autonomous body among several others.
