Education is the most important part of a human’s life. The moment a child starts the education and head towards an entirely different life. It keeps on evolving in terms of syllabus & advancements and that’s where we come up with the complexities. Parents’ concern starts at the moment a child enters the school. The foundational years provide base to the education of a child. “The stronger the foundation, the firm the building will be.”
About NEP 2020 & the 5+3+3+4 formula,
The new National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 in India has brought a new 5+3+3+4 structure to replace India's 10+2 schooling system. Earlier the education system was mainly divided into pre-primary, primary, elementary and secondary education, followed by higher studies. Ofcourse the 5+3+3+4 system does not mean more school years as for a student the school years is unaffected. The new system NEP 2020 incorporates playschools within the realm of "formal education," combining nursery and kindergarten classes with classes 1 and 2. The method has been designed to blur the lines between occupational and academic pursuits, as well as curricular and extracurricular pursuits.
