Benefits of New Education Policy
Saras Heritage is fully committed to adhering the norms laid down by NEP.
The New Education Policy (NEP) mandates compulsory schooling from ages 3 to 18, introducing three years of pre-schooling for children aged 3-6. The curricular structure shifts from 10+2 to 5+3+3+4, emphasising Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE).
The policy promotes experiential learning, critical thinking, and reduced course content in the school curriculum. Vocational education is introduced in grades 6-8, accompanied by internship opportunities.
NEP focuses on universal access, holistic development, and progress tracking for students. It incorporates vocational education from pre-school to 12th standard and emphasises the inclusion of counsellors and social workers.
NEP aims to achieve Foundational Literacy and Numeracy starting from Grade 3 by 2025, focusing on reading and basic numerical skills as prerequisites for learning.
The establishment of the National Educational Technology Forum (NETF) is proposed to promote technological innovation in education, enhancing classroom processes and teacher development.
