Navigating the Future
Vibha Singh, the visionary behind Mere Nanhe Kadam, expresses both appreciation and optimism regarding the National Education Policy 2020. While she applauds the emphasis on practical learning, smart classes, and play way methods, she stresses the need for effective implementation. She believes that the policy's impact extends beyond preprimary education, affecting even 10+2 schools. She advocates for a clear demarcation between pre-schools and 10+2 schools, urging policymakers to discourage admissions from nursery or lower classes. “I believe it’s important to maintain small teacher-student ratios for effective preprimary education and individualized attention for young learners. Additionally, due to the challenges in transportation services, the government should consider smaller vehicles and personalized home-to-home services to ensure the safety and well-being of young children. Through these suggestions, I envision a more robust pre-primary education system and enhanced efficiency in 10+2 schools", concludes Vibha.
