NEP 2020 Implementation

Understanding and translating policy priorities into school practice.

The National Education Policy 2020 changes what good teaching looks like: less rote learning, more understanding; less exam pressure, more holistic development. Many teachers know the headlines but are unsure what it means for their own lessons.

This program explains the key ideas of NEP 2020 and the National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF-SE 2023), and shows teachers exactly how to apply them in the classroom.
