“We encourage our students to apply their learning across different disciplines with an entrepreneurial mindset,” says Roshni Vijayan, Principal of The Cambridge International School in Bangalore, in an Interview with Pratik Ghosh, Content Writer, ArdorComm Media Group at the ‘New Normal – Education Leadership Summit & Awards 2023’ #ELSANewDelhi #ELSAGurugram How are you feeling about witnessing the New Normal Education Leadership Summit and Awards in Delhi? Thank you for inviting me over, and it’s a great pleasure to be here, to understand the future of education with regard to the National Education Policy (NEP) and its implementation. At the same time how are we going to be futuristic about implementing the various skill educations that are required to get our children future ready for 2030. How are you implementing technology in your school? We’ve implemented technology in an interdisciplinary manner. All our classrooms are smart classrooms, and our teachers are Microsoft certified, making us a digitally aware school. We encourage our students to apply their learning across different disciplines with an entrepreneurial mindset. In forums like this, where education leaders, EdTech players, and government representatives come together, how do you think such events benefit the education sector? Such forums are crucial for educators as they provide opportunities to network and understand the various learning platforms available in the market. Having speakers who work directly with the government, like Dr. Anup and Dr. Pratyusha from NCERT today, is encouraging. These events promote joyful learning for children, reduce the fear of examinations, and emphasize practical application of knowledge. Any message for our ArdorComm Media Group on its 2nd anniversary? ArdorComm Media is doing a wonderful job in bringing educators together, motivating us to be abreast with the latest technologies in learning and also bringing awareness in terms of what education has to offer on a nationwide forum and also helping us to collaborate and understand how we can implement it further in our schools.

Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan Unveils New Curriculum Framework: Board Exams Twice a Year, Best Scores to Count

Leave a Comment / / Education Community

Union Minister for Education, Dharmendra Pradhan, has unveiled the finalized curriculum framework in line with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. Under this new framework, textbooks corresponding to these changes will be created and introduced for the academic session starting in 2024. According to the NCF, board exams will now be held twice a year, allowing students to retain their best scores. This adjustment aims to provide students with ample time and opportunities to excel academically. It empowers students to choose when to sit for board exams in subjects they feel confident about. The focus of these board exams will shift towards assessing students’ understanding and competency rather than encouraging rote learning and memorization. Another significant change is that students in classes 11 and 12 will be required to study two languages, with at least one being an Indian language. The traditional limitations on subject choices based on academic streams will also be eliminated, granting students more flexibility. Moreover, there are plans for school boards to eventually offer ‘on-demand’ exams. Additionally, those involved in designing and evaluating board exams will need to complete university-certified courses to enhance their skills in this area. Furthermore, the new framework discourages the practice of covering textbooks in classrooms, emphasizing the need to optimize textbook costs. These changes signal a comprehensive transformation in the education system, with a focus on holistic learning and flexibility.

Dr. S. K. Rathor, Founder, Chairman & MD, Sanfort Group of Schools, Shares his views on Vision 2030 for Education Sector

“My request is that every progressive private school should handhold one budget school, one government school, or one school in a rural area to help uplift them and bring their education level up to par with children in more privileged schools,” says Dr. S. K. Rathor, Founder, Chairman & MD, Sanfort Group of Schools, in an Interview with Pratik Ghosh, Content Writer, ArdorComm Media Group at the ‘New Normal – Education Leadership Summit & Awards 2023’ #ELSANewDelhi #ELSAGurugram How are you feeling to witness the New Normal Education Leadership Summit and Awards in Delhi? Thank you so much for inviting me. I’d like to share that when Chandan and Ashish were planning their first event two years ago, they met me. I’ve known them for many years, and they explained their plan to start their own venture. I’m delighted to see the remarkable growth that your company have achieved in just two short years. Today’s event is much better than the first one, which was the first physical event post-COVID in the industry. I must say it’s a significant achievement, and I look forward to an even bigger event with a larger audience next year. The theme of our event is India Vision 2030. What do you think should be the vision for the school education sector? The vision for the school education sector shouldn’t be limited to any particular group or individual; it should be a vision for the entire country. Our Prime Minister has introduced the National Education Policy, which prioritizes Early Childhood Education for the first time in our education system. When it comes to private schools, many have good infrastructure and budgets for investment. However, it’s crucial to remember that a significant portion of our population attends government schools, budget schools, or schools in rural areas, and these children come from less privileged backgrounds. My request is that every progressive private school should handhold one budget school, one government school, or one school in a rural area to help uplift them and bring their education level up to par with children in more privileged schools. Only then can the National Education Policy truly become a reality on the ground. The government cannot do it all; it’s the duty of every educator and private institution to support government schools and underprivileged children. Any message for ArdorComm Media Group? ArdorComm Media is doing a fantastic job, and I believe you will experience multi-fold growth in the next couple of years. I wish you to become the premier organization for education conferences and seminars in the country.

Dr. Niyati Chitkara, Director, Chitkara International School, Highlights on the Vision for School Education Sector

Leave a Comment / / Interviews

“The vision for 2030, as outlined in the National Education Policy and the Sustainable Development Goals, can be achieved by investing in teacher and counsellor education,” says Dr. Niyati Chitkara, Director, Chitkara International School, in an Interview with Pratik Ghosh, Content Writer, ArdorComm Media Group at the ‘New Normal – Education Leadership Summit & Awards 2023’ #ELSANewDelhi #ELSAGurugram How are you feeling to witness the New Normal Education Leadership Summit and Awards in Delhi? I’m very excited, and I had a wonderful learning experience with great keynote speakers and an amazing fraternity. It’s a fantastic opportunity for networking, sharing best practices, and appreciating each other’s work. This conference brings the entire education community together, and it’s going to be very helpful for everyone. When people come together, meaningful things happen, and that’s what this conference aims to achieve. I’m really enjoying it. Thank you. What are your views on the theme of our event, India Vision 2030? The vision for 2030, which is just seven years away, revolves around two crucial aspects, in my opinion. First is teacher education, and second is counsellor education. If we focus on training our teachers and counsellors effectively, especially pre-service teachers who are pursuing B.Ed, we can shape a highly skilled future generation. This will not only contribute to employability but also help us harness the potential of our resources. The vision for 2030, as outlined in the National Education Policy and the Sustainable Development Goals, can be achieved by investing in teacher and counsellor education. We need well-trained and happy teachers and counsellors to ensure the well-being and happiness of all stakeholders in our schools. How are you implementing NEP in Chitkara International School? The National Education Policy (NEP) offers keywords that are futuristic and important. We’ve identified these keywords that align with our school’s vision. The NEP emphasizes the synergy between school education, higher education, and industry. When schools, universities, and industries work cohesively, we can achieve significant results. It’s essential for school leaders to thoroughly understand the NEP for school education and higher education and connect it to their schools. This alignment will drive meaningful change. In forums like this, where education leaders, EdTech players, and the government come together, how do you think they benefit the education sector? Forums like this offer open discussions and bring together stakeholders from various facets of education, including NCERT, CBSE, skilled organizations, and regulatory bodies. It’s a platform for discussions, brainstorming, and sharing meaningful ideas. Industry partners also showcase products that can enhance the education system, making life easier for teachers and school principals. This ecosystem benefits everyone involved, and I highly recommend attending such events. Any message for ArdorComm Media Group on its 2nd anniversary? Congratulations to ArdorComm Media Group! We are very proud of it and another thing is that it’s my presence here also for the second time and last year also I was here as a keynote speaker and I’ve had a wonderful time, this year too. Last year just things were becoming normal post-covid but this time you guys have nailed it. So, it’s a wonderful session and congratulations, best wishes for future.
