Giving final touches to the New Education Policy, the panel under eminent scientist K Kasturirangan is working on 25 different themes including quality education, value education and others to possibly bring out the policy draft by the end of the year.
The New Education Policy is a highly awaited and discussed change in the education sector, for which the team under scientist Kasturirangan is the second team to be working on the policy.
The panel has replaced the TSR Subramanian committee, which has already given its suggestions to the government and on the basis of suggestions, a basic policy framework has been prepared.
According to sources in the ministry, the themes that the team is working on, include digital learning, physical education, life skills in education, value education and experiential learning among others.
"The idea is to make the policy holistic, which is why we have identified 25 different relevant topics to finalise the policy draft. In a recent meeting of the panel, the team members informed the minister that they are confident of bringing out the policy by the end of the year," said a source in the Ministry of Human Resource Development.
The Kasturirangan committee has been mandated to make Indian education contemporary, improve its quality, and internationalise it. It could also provide a roadmap for the entry of foreign universities into India.
A chintan shivir is also being organised by the Ministry of Human Resource Development in November to discuss some of the education themes for New Education Policy and the inputs given will be used to include in the policy draft.
The workshop will be organised on November 6 and 7 in the national capital.
