Abstract

The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 represents a transformative step in India's educational framework, aiming to address long-standing issues and adapt to contemporary global demands. This policy introduces a holistic and flexible approach to education, emphasizing multidisciplinary learning, vocational training, and the integration of technology. NEP 2020 seeks to bridge gaps in educational access and quality, promoting inclusivity and equity across diverse socio-economic backgrounds. Key reforms include the restructuring of school curricula, a focus on early childhood education, and the adoption of innovative assessment methods. For higher education, NEP 2020 advocates for multidisciplinary studies, institutional consolidation, and enhanced research capabilities. Additionally, the policy emphasizes the role of technology in education, aiming to bridge the digital divide and incorporate emerging technologies like AI. Despite its progressive vision, the successful implementation of NEP 2020 will hinge on addressing challenges related to funding, governance, and resource allocation. If effectively executed, NEP 2020 has the potential to significantly advance India’s education system, preparing students to meet future challenges and positioning the country as a global leader in education by 2030.
