Governors’ Conference on NEP 2020 – In Nutshell

The government of India announced National Policy on Education 2020 after 34 years of the previous Education Policy. They announced the previous one in 1986. Hence it is the first education policy of the 21st century.

At the Conference, the Honorable Prime Minister shared that they started working on NEP five years ago. Further, he added that suggestions of more than two lakh people, both rural and urban, have been incorporated to formulate the NEP 2020 policy.

Key Highlights of his speech

  • Students can now choose and study subjects as per their interests. We shall remove the pressure on students for specific streams.
  • Practical learning and vocational exposure in the early years will help develop tremendous talent and be the foundation for Atmanirbhar Bharat.
  • Further, the new policy lays emphasis on practicality, performance, critical analysis, and assessment.
  • In addition to that, children will learn about their culture, language, and heritage at the foundation level, which will ensure holistic learning and growth. 
  • Also, an Academic Bank of Credit, or ABC, will be established to digitally store the academic credits earned from various recognized higher educational institutes. It will further ensure that the credits earned in the previous years add up after entering into the programme again.
  • At last it is believed that NEP 2020 is a strong step to move from a “one size fits all” approach to a personalized and non judgemental approach to education.
