“Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.” – Nelson Mandela
Getting proper basic education is the birth right of each and every individual as per the Indian Constitution. Education is the key element in the development of a child for getting ready to lead a happy life.
Introduction
Recently, the new National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 was announced by Union cabinet of India, on 29 July 2020, after rectification and replacing the previous National Policy on Education, 1986; to meet the needs of the present 21st Century.
NEP 2020 envisions an India-centric education system that contributes directly to transforming our nation sustainably into an equitable and vibrant knowledge society by providing high-quality education to all.
Apart from this, the policy also focuses on early childhood care, restructuring curriculum and pedagogy; reforming assessments and exams, and investing in teacher training and broad-basing their appraisal.
The Necessity of New Education Policy 2020
The earlier system of education was basically focused on learning and giving results. The students were judged by the marks attained. This was a uni-directional approach to development. But the new education policy focuses on the relevance of a multi-disciplinary approach. It aims at all-round development of the student.
New education policy visualizes the formation of a new curriculum and structure of education which will help the students at their different stages of learning. It will be towards meeting sustainability by fulfilling Goal 4 - Quality Education.
Objective
The main motive is making a child learn along with becoming a skilled one, in whatever field they are interested. In this way, the learners are able to figure out their aim, and their capabilities. The learners are to be provided with integrated learning i.e., having the knowledge of every discipline. The same is applicable in higher education too. The new education policy also lays emphasis on the reformation of teacher’s education and training processes. The policy aims to ensure that all students at all levels of school education are taught by passionate, motivated, highly qualified, professionally trained, and well-equipped teachers.
The NEP 2020 enacts numerous changes in India's education policy. It aims to increase state expenditure on education from around 4% to 6% of the GDP as soon as possible.
Conclusion
The new Education Policy (NEP) 2020, envisages creation, transmission, use and dissemination of knowledge as a part of this continuum which aims at making the education system holistic, flexible, multidisciplinary, aligned to the needs of the 21st century and the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals. The policy is concerned with attention on skill development along with the study curriculum to foster the learner and the nation’s development. The intent of policy seems to be ideal in many ways but it is the implementation where lies the key to success.
