The new education policy-2020 has got the approval of the cabinet. Union Human Resource Development Minister Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank and Information and Broadcasting Minister Prakash Javadekar gave this information in a press conference on Wednesday.
Earlier, the education policy was implemented in 1986. This policy was amended in 1992. That is, after 34 years, a new education policy is being implemented in the country.
It was drafted by a committee of experts headed by former ISRO chief Kasturirangan, which was approved by the cabinet headed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday.
Many major changes have been made in the new education policy from school education to higher education.
Highlights of the new Education Policy-2020
The Ministry of Human Resource Development has been renamed as the Ministry of Education. This means that Ramesh Pokhriyal Nishank will now be called the Education Minister of the country.
The target of investing six per cent of GDP in education which is currently 4.43 per cent.
The goal of New Education is to provide quality education to every child in the age group of 3-18 by 2030.
Vocational courses will be started from class VI. For this, the interested students will be given internship from the sixth class onwards. In addition music and arts will be promoted. These will be implemented in the curriculum.
There will be a single regulator for higher education (excluding law and medical education). That is, UGC and AICTE will now be abolished and a National Higher Education Regulatory Authority will be set up for the entire higher education.
For the first time multiple entry and exit systems have been implemented. You can understand it like this. In today's system, if you are unable to study for any reason after four years of engineering or after studying six semesters, then you do not have any solution, but after one year certificate in multiple entry and exit system, diploma after three years and three. Degree will be obtained after four years. This will greatly benefit those students whose studies are missed due to some reason in between.
Many changes have been made in higher education. There will be a four-year degree program for students who want to do research. Those who want to get into jobs will do a three-year degree program. But those who want to go into research can do PhD directly after a four-year degree program with a one-year MA. They will not need M.Phil.
The National Research Foundation (NRAF) will be set up to conduct research. The main objective of NRAF will be to enable research culture through universities. The NRAF will be governed independently by the government, a board of governors.
Higher education institutions will have to bring more transparency in the matter of charging fees.
E-courses will be developed in regional languages. A virtual lab is being developed and a National Educational Technology Forum
