Pointing out that a 30-year-old Education syllabus can no longer be taught to children and youth, chief minister Pramod Sawant on Tuesday said theNational Education Policy(NEP), 2020, would be implemented in most educational institutions from the next academic year on a trial basis.
The NEP which replaces the National Policy on Education, 1986, and aims to transform the countrys education system by 2040 could not be implemented during the current academic year due to pandemic-related restrictions, the chief minister said.
