Source- The post is based on the article “Schooling Reforms” published in the “The Times of India” on 7th April 2023.
Syllabus: GS2- Issues related to development and management of education
Relevance– Issues related to educational reforms
News– The draft National Curriculum Framework (NCF) for School Education 2023 is proposed by the government.
What are some facts about the draft National Curriculum Framework (NCF) for School Education 2023?
It has recommended major changes in assessment across different levels of schooling.
It envisages students moving across arts, commerce and science more freely, an increase in self-assessment, and board exams taking place at least twice a year.
What is the way forward for proper implementation of the draft National Curriculum Framework (NCF) for School Education 2023?
The document should be put in the public domain soon. That will remove unjustified fears. It will also encourage stakeholders to start a constructive engagement with reform proposals.
Education policymakers should take lessons from the past experiments. Continuous and comprehensive evaluation was ushered in 2009 but has to end in 2017. Good ideas with poor execution are not successful.
