The new National Education Policy which was approved in the cabinet on 29th July 2020, and announced by the Ministry of Education on the 31st, has been welcomed by students, parents, educators and others related to the field. Since being initiated in 1986, this policy has seen only minor changes in 1992 and therefore, changing it to create better opportunities for students across all the grades and from varied backgrounds is a pioneering initiative.
The major goal of this new policy is to accomplish 100 per cent Gross Enrolment Ratio (GER) in school education by 2030 with universal access to education. Another feature is to dissuade rote learning that is prevalent amongst students and imbibe an interest-based process that helps them excel in a subject of their choice. According to the new National Education Policy, the 10+2 model of education becomes redundant and in its place, the 5+3+3+4 structure has been proposed.
