Insights on the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020

August 23, 2020

Insights on the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020     The discussion surrounding the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 has opened a platform for diverse perspectives and insights. It's crucial to hear from all speakers, as their views collectively contribute to a comprehensive understanding of this transformative policy.   During this enlightening discourse, a notable highlight emerged between the minutes 42.35 to 51.30, capturing the essence of the discussion. Prof. Nagraj Neerchal's statement resonated profoundly – the suggestion to transition from a year-wise educational system to a credit-based system. Under this model, students would progress at their own pace, completing a year when they accrue the required credits. This approach recognizes the unique learning styles and speeds of each student.   However, it's worth noting that the effectiveness of any policy lies in its implementation. Every member of society, whether a parent, teacher, administrator, or concerned citizen, should take a pledge to act in the best interest of the child's overall development. It's essential that no voice is silenced by fear or intimidation, and that parents understand their rights as outlined in the Right to Education (RTE), Rights of Persons with Disabilities (RPWD), and NEP.
