Transforming Education: Greatify's Technological Approach in Line with National Education Policy 2020

What is NEP 2020?

The National Education Policy 2020 (NEP 2020) is a visionary framework introduced by the Government of India that aims to transform higher education for a successful future. This policy stands on five main pillars: access, equity, quality, affordability, and accountability. It is believed that these pillars will help the youth of tomorrow meet the diverse challenges of the future. 

NEP 2020 caters to all aspects of a student's learning journey -  from school education to higher education. When it comes to school education, the policy stresses the principle that education must help develop cognitive skills such as literacy, numeracy and critical thinking as well as soft skills such as leadership, teamwork and empathy. The policy aims to provide pre-primary education to all with an emphasis on helping all students to attain foundational literacy and numeracy by 2025. To do so, a set of reforms have been recommended including transforming the curriculum and adopting a 5+3+3+4 structure towards education.

In regards to higher education, National Education Policy 2020 recommends moving towards a multidisciplinary and holistic form of education where the quality of research and the continuous development of teachers is maintained. Moreover, the policy focuses on institutional autonomy and reliable assessment. 

The policy is aimed to making a long-term positive impact on the education system; the implementation of NEP 2020 means a need for significant change in all aspects of the education system. To make India the leading contributor of skilled manpower, this change must be seamless and efficient.
