The Union education ministry on Tuesday formed a 12-member committee to develop new curriculums for school, early childhood, teacher, and adult education, officials said. The panel tasked with developing four national curriculum frameworks (NCFs) will be headed by National Education Policy-2020 (NEP-2020) drafting committee chairperson K Kasturirangan. The NCFs serve as a guideline for syllabus, textbook, and teaching practices for schools in India. The panel will be headed by K Kasturirangan, former chief of the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) and Chairperson of the National Education Policy-2020 (NEP-2020) drafting committee.
According to the terms of reference of the committee, it will develop four NCFs for school education, early childhood care and education, teacher education and adult education, keeping in focus all the recommendations of NEP-2020 related to these four areas for proposing curriculum reforms.
Once developed, it will be the fifth NCF, which comes after a gap of 16 years.
