The current education policy in India is the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which aims to make learning more holistic, flexible, and skill-oriented. It replaces the old 10+2 structure with a new 5+3+3+4 system, emphasizes early childhood care, foundational literacy, multilingual education, and reduced rote learning. Key reforms include flexible subject choices, competency-based assessments, teacher training reforms, and a multidisciplinary approach in higher education. The policy also promotes technology in learning, inclusion for disadvantaged groups, and aims to raise public investment in education to 6% of GDP.
