Some people who have want to reject the National Educational policy because they think it will promote child labour and exploitation in the name of “Internships” in India, this imposes Hindi on entire India, this will make education more expensive, no reservation in SC, ST and OBC category, dilution of India constitution, communalisation of education, Financial autonomy, etc. In reality, the National Educational Policy 2020 will make positive changes in the Indian education system.
Fiinovation CSR is always focusing on educational campaigns, such as providing funds to child welfare trust NGOs and conducting child protection programmes. Fiinovation supports #supportNEP 2020 because education is the main key to make students more knowledgeable, achieve high goals in the future.
The vision of National Education policy 2020
“The vision of the Policy is to instil among the learners a deep-rooted pride in being Indian, not only in thought, but also in spirit, intellect, and deeds, as well as to develop knowledge, skills, values, and dispositions that support responsible commitment to human rights, sustainable development and living, and global well-being, thereby reflecting a truly global citizen.”
This policy envisages that the extant 10+2 structure in school education will be modified with a new pedagogical and curricular restructuring of 5+3+3+4 covering ages 3-18.
The curricular and pedagogical structure of school education will be reconfigured to make it responsive and relevant to the developmental needs and interests of learners at different stages of their development, corresponding to the age ranges of 3-8, 8-11, 11-14, and 14-18 years, respectively. The curricular and pedagogical structure and the curricular framework for school education will, therefore, be guided by a 5+3+3+4 design, consisting of the Foundational Stage (in two parts, that is, 3 years of Anganwadi/pre-school + 2 years in a primary school in Grades 1-2; both together covering ages 3-8), Preparatory Stage (Grades 3-5, covering ages 8-11), Middle Stage (Grades 6-8, covering ages 11-14), and Secondary Stage (Grades 9-12 in two phases, i.e., 9 and 10 in the first and 11 and 12 in the second, covering ages 14-18). The Foundational Stage will consist of five years of flexible, multilevel, play/activity-based learning and the curriculum and pedagogy of ECCE. The Preparatory Stage will comprise three years of education building on the play, discovery, and activity-based pedagogical and curricular style of the Foundational Stage, and will also begin to incorporate some light textbooks as well as aspects of more formal but interactive classroom learning, in order to lay a solid groundwork across subjects, including reading, writing, speaking, physical education, art, languages, science, and mathematics. The Middle Stage will comprise three years of education, building on the pedagogical and curricular style of the Preparatory Stage, but with the introduction of subject teachers for learning and discussion of the more abstract concepts in each subject that students will be ready for at this stage across the sciences, mathematics, arts, social sciences, and humanities. Experiential learning within each subject, and explorations of relations among different subjects, will be encouraged and emphasized despite the introduction of more specialized subjects and subject teachers. The Secondary Stage will comprise four years of multidisciplinary study, building on the subject-oriented pedagogical and curricular style of the Middle Stage, but with greater depth, greater critical thinking, greater attention to life aspirations, and greater flexibility and student choice of subjects. In particular, students would continue to have the option of exiting after Grade 10 National Education Policy 2020 12 and re-entering in the next phase to pursue vocationally or any other courses available in Grades 11- 12, including at a more specialized school.
Fiinovation practices primarily focus on practice areas like health, education, livelihood skills and environment. New education policy believes students should get more practical knowledge through internships. It makes students more knowledgeable in their perspective field. These pedagogical practices help students in developing skills such as collaboration, self-initiative, self-direction, self-discipline, teamwork, responsibility, citizenship, etc. To providing internship to students at a young age is not supports child labour work but it helps students to adopt new skills in young age. Also, financial support will be provided by the government to various critical elements and components of education, such as ensuring universal access, learning resources, nutritional support, matters of student safety and well-being, adequate numbers of teachers and staff, teacher development, and support for all key initiatives towards equitable high-quality education for underprivileged and socioeconomically disadvantaged groups. Also, NEP 2020 said that “The matter of commercialization of education has been dealt with by the Policy through multiple relevant fronts, including the ‘light but tight’ regulatory approach that mandates full public self-disclosure of finances, procedures, course and programme offerings, and educational outcomes; the substantial investment in public education; and mechanisms for good governance of all institutions, public and private. Similarly, opportunities for higher cost recovery without affecting the needy or deserving sections will also be explored. ” Education activities are mentioned in Fiinovation Blogs that explain how solving social problems is their first responsibility. Fiinovation mentioned how new education policy builds new educational agenda that develops students' bright future. Fiinovation CEO Dr. Soumitro Chakraborty and team are honoured by many awards in the field of Health, Education, Environment and Livelihood with a focus on CSR & Sustainability.
