RUSA (Rashtriya Ucchatar Shiksha Abhiyan) is a centrally sponsored scheme launched in 2013 that aims to provide strategic funding to state higher education institutions. The funding flows from the central ministry to state governments and institutions and is based on state higher education plans and institutional development plans. RUSA seeks to improve access, equity and excellence in higher education by upgrading colleges to universities, supporting infrastructure development, faculty recruitment and improving research. It also aims to increase gross enrollment ratios, ensure quality standards, promote autonomy and reforms, and address regional imbalances. Key challenges to achieving its goals include gender disparity, inadequate infrastructure, low industry training, faculty shortage and large college affiliations to universities.
The Right to Education Act of 2009 has several key provisions:
- It guarantees the right to free and compulsory education for all children between ages 6-14.
- Private schools must reserve 25% of their seats for disadvantaged students, whose education will be funded by the government.
- Schools cannot charge capitation fees or require entrance exams or interviews.
- Several issues have arisen in implementing the Act, such as lack of qualified teachers, unclear standards, and challenges integrating disadvantaged students.
- Proposed solutions include incentives for school attendance, improving teacher training, and using technology for education.
This document summarizes the key aspects of the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act of 2009 in India. The act aims to provide free and compulsory quality elementary education to all children between 6-14 years old. It mandates that state governments must provide infrastructure like classrooms, drinking water, toilets and teachers in all government and private schools. The act also prohibits corporal punishment, private tuition by teachers, detention and expulsion of children until class 8. It sets norms for minimum qualifications for teachers and school management committees to monitor schools.
The document describes the "T-E-A-C-H" program for total literacy in India. The program focuses on teacher support, e-learning, adult literacy, child development, and happy schools. It outlines initiatives for each area, including periodic teacher evaluations, volunteer teachers, e-learning centers, self-education groups for adults, support for children, and improving school infrastructure. The document emphasizes that literacy is important for health, occupation, empowerment, and economic prosperity. It calls for involvement in the program through volunteering, fundraising, teaching, and creating awareness.

NEP 2020 recognizes that the vocational education is perceived to be inferior to mainstream education. Hence, this policy aims to overcome the social status hierarchy associated with vocational education and requires integration of vocational education programmes into mainstream education in all education institutions in a phased manner. Towards this, secondary schools will also collaborate with ITIs, polytechnics, local industry, etc. Skill labs will also be set up and created in the schools in a hub and spoke model which will allow other schools to use the facility.
Improving the quality of education across all levels from primary to university level is a continuous and ongoing process. Several initiatives are currently being undertaken in this direction.

4. Science,Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics
(STEM) have showed positive learning outcomes
include, among other things, increased critical
thinking abilities, higher order thinking and
deeper learning, mastery of content, problem
solving, team work and communication skills
besides general engagement and enjoyment of
learning
The direction of the global education development agenda is reflected
in the sustainable development goal 4 (SDG4) of the
2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. SDG4 seeks to “ensure
inclusive and equitable quality education and promote
lifelong learning opportunities for all” by 2030. Five of the
seven targets of SDG4 focus on quality education and learning
outcomes
Brookings Institution have highlighted the broad consensus
that has developed. Students must develop not only
cognitive skills - both ‘foundational skills’ of literacy and
numeracy and ‘higher-order’ cognitive skills such as critical
thinking and problem solving skills - but also social and
emotional skills, also referred to as ‘soft skills’, including
cultural awareness and empathy, perseverance and grit,
teamwork and leadership, among others.
I ntern ation al B ackgrou n d
All learners should become more
academically, socially and emotionally competent
Social and Emotional Learning (SEL).
Learning to know -
acquiring a body of
knowledge and learning
how to learn, so as to
benefit from the
opportunities education
provides throughout life;
Learning to do -
acquiring not only an
occupational skill but
also the competence to
deal with many
situations and work in
teams, and a package of
skills that enables one
to deal with the various
challenges of working
life;
Learning to live
together - developing
an understanding of
other people and an
appreciation of
interdependence in a
spirit of respect for the
values of pluralism,
mutual understanding
and peace;
Learning to be -
developing one’s
personality and being
able to act with
autonomy, judgement
and personal
responsibility, while
ensuring that education
does not disregard any
aspect of the potential of
a person: memory,
reasoning, aesthetic
sense, physical capacities
and communication skills
The historic Universal Declaration of Human Rights, adopted at the
UN General Assembly in 1948, declared that “everyone has the
right to education”. Article 26 in the Declaration stated that
“education shall be free, at least in the elementary and fundamental
stages” and “elementary education shall be compulsory”, and that
‘education shall be directed to the full development of the human
personality and to the strengthening of respect for human rights and
fundamental freedoms’.
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
5. The Right of Children to Free and Compulsory
Education Act, 2009 (RTE Act) which came into
force in April 2010, entitles every child of the
age of six to fourteen years to the right to free
and compulsory education in a
neighbourhood school till the completion of
elementary education.
The narrow time lag between the generation of
new knowledge and its application, especially in
the fields of science and technology, necessitate
the periodic renewal of school and higher
education curricula to maintain their relevance
to the changing societal and personal needs of
learners, and the emerging national
development goals.
Culturally, India has been, and continues to be,
a cradle of great diversity in all walks of life,
with its myriad languages and dialects, with as
many as seven classical dance forms and two
classical music forms, many well-developed
traditions of folk arts and music, pottery,
sculptures and bronzes, exquisite architecture,
incredible cuisines, fabulous textiles of all
kinds, and so much more.
Drawing from India’s heritage
Globalisation and the demands of a
knowledge economy and a knowledge society
call for emphasis on the need for acquisition of new
skills by learners on a regular basis, for them to ‘learn
how to learn’ and become lifelong learners.
National Background
India aspires to take its place beside the United
States and China as the third largest economy by
2030-2032, the same period during which this
Policy will bring about the biggest
transformation.
India is the sixth largest economy now and we
will reach five trillion in five-seven years
taking us to fourth or fifth position.
By 2030-2032 we will be the third largest
economy at over ten trillion. Our ten trillion
economy will not be driven by natural resources,
but by knowledge resources.

An education system built on the premises
of quality and equity is considered central
to sustainable development, achieving
success in the emerging knowledge
economy and society, for socio-economic
mobility, and for building an equitable, just
and humane society.

(vi) revamping colleges and universities, and
(vii) research.
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
69. WayForward
to ensure that the Policy is implemented in its spirit and intent,
through coherence in planning and synergy
across all bodies involved in education.
The Policy outlines key actions led by various bodies,
along with timelines and
a plan for review,
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
70. Salient features of NEP 2019:
• The policy aims to universalize the pre-primary
education by 2025 and provide foundational
literacy/numeracy for all by 2025
• It proposes new Curricular and Pedagogical
Structure, with 5+3+3+4 design covering the
children in the age group 3-18 years. Under this,
• Pre-Primary (3 Years) & Grades 1-2 is considered
as Foundational Stage;
• Grades 3-5 as Preparatory Stage;
• Grades 6-8 as Middle Stage and
• Grades 9-12 as Secondary Stage.
This is an academic restructuring only; there will be no physical restructuring of schoolsPrepared by Dr.N.Asokan
71. • Children learn languages, most quickly between
2-8 years, and multilingualism has great cognitive
benefits for students. Therefore a three-language
formula has been proposed
• It proposes the teaching of other classical
languages and literature, including Tamil, Telugu,
Kannada, Malayalam, Odia, Pali, Persian, and
Prakrit in schools
• A new independent State School Regulatory
Authority (SSRA) to be created
• It aims to consolidate 800 universities & 40,000
colleges into around 15,000 large,
multidisciplinary institutions
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
72. • The policy proposes three types of Higher
Educational Institutions (HEIs): Research
Universities, Teaching Universities and
Autonomous degree-granting colleges
• It aims to provide autonomy to all higher
education institutions. Higher education
institutions to be governed by Independent
Boards with complete academic and
administrative autonomy
• An autonomous body called the National
Research Foundation (NRF) to be set up
through an Act of Parliament
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
73. • Rashtriya Shiksha Aayog or the National
Education Commission - apex body - to be
constituted. It will be chaired by the Prime
Minister and will comprise eminent
educationists, researchers, Union Ministers,
representation of Chief Ministers of States,
eminent professionals from various fields
• MHRD to be re-designated as the Ministry of
Education (MoE)
• Increase in public investment by the Central and
State Governments to 20% of overall public
expenditure over a 10 year period

78. Views in support of Draft National
Education Policy
• The school education will cover children of 3-18
years, instead of the present 6-14 years under the
RTE Act. It covers three years under early
childhood care and education (ECCE) and four
years under secondary education. ECCE would
facilitate play and discovery-based learning for
children of that age group
• Its emphasis on mother tongue-based education
and oral language development are critical
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
79. • The policy focuses on online learning as an
alternative to regular classroom interaction
between teachers and students. It helps in
achieving the twin objectives of cutting costs
and increasing enrollment
• It aims to protect and promote our culture
through the study of classical languages,
mother tongues, and regional languages
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
80. • The teacher education system will be
transformed, with rigorous preparation through a
four-year integrated stage and subject-specific
programs offered in multi-disciplinary institutions
• The draft talks about the better engagement of
the private sector and provisioning for
government funding for R&D work through a
proposed national research fund
• Professional education will become an integral
part of the higher education system
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
81. Drawbacks in the Draft National
Education Policy
• The draft policy is silent on the Institutions of Eminence
and agencies like the Higher Education Funding Agency
• The policy does not address with sufficient clarity
curricular, pedagogical and teacher education-related
issues that plague the teaching and learning of early
literacy in many Indian classrooms
• The policy proposes largely oral activities for the pre-
primary grades, reading hours for Grades 1-3, with an
additional hour for writing starting only in Grades 4 and 5.
It contradicts evidence suggesting that young children be
taught listening, speaking, reading and writing
simultaneously and not sequentially
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
82. • It lacks discussion about what it takes to prepare teachers
to successfully teach foundational literacy in a multilingual
country. Instead, the document recommends recruiting
volunteers and community members to support the
acquisition of early literacy. Volunteers can be used, but
cannot be a primary mechanism to deliver foundational
literacy to students
• It misdiagnoses the causes behind the severe learning crisis
- namely poor school and teacher accountability. There is
no fundamental reform proposed for revamping the
accountability structures for schools. Instead, the NEP
provides school management committees (SMCs). SMCs
already mandated under the RTE Act are ineffectual
• With the democratization of knowledge and availability of
technology for easy access to information, the draft should
have focused more on how to teach and not only on what
to teach
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
83. • The National Research Foundation (NRF) is tasked
with "permeating the culture of research and
innovation" and addressing societal challenges.
But, there is no mechanism, such as innovative
curricula or extension units, for tier II or tier III
institutions to work on local problems. It has no
access or accountability to people or their
representatives
• The Constitution puts education in the
Concurrent List, giving authority and
responsibility to both the States and the Centre.
However, the draft had robbed the States by
creating an excessively centralized structure of
authority and vesting overarching powers with
the PM-led Rashtriya Shiksha Aayog (RSA)
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
84. • In promoting the study of regional languages,
the importance of English is neglected. Those
who are fluent in the English language live in
households with three times higher income
than those without any knowledge of English.
By ignoring this, the Draft NEP19 has laid out a
"language trap", which will create social
inequality and impede economic growth due
to loss of the demographic dividend
• The report does not emphasize enough the
role and importance of state governments in
imparting education to the masses
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
85. Challenges in Implementation
• Draft NEP recommended doubling of public funding to
6% of the GDP and increasing overall public
expenditure on education to 20% from the current
10%. This is desirable but does not appear to be
feasible in the near future, given that most of the
additional funding has to come from the States.
• The report has appealed to philanthropists and
companies to route their corporate social responsibility
(CSR) funds to supplement government efforts, but it
forgets that such funds will not be ideologically neutral.
Prepared by Dr.N.Asokan
86. • Expanding coverage under the RTE Act to include
pre-school children is extremely important, but
should perhaps be introduced gradually, keeping
in mind the quality of infrastructure and teacher
vacancies. Amendment of the Act can perhaps
wait for a while.
• The idea of setting up the Rashtriya Shiksha
Aayog is crucial in order to integrate the
approaches and programs of multiple
departments. However, bringing medical or
agricultural or legal education under one
umbrella is likely to be met with stiff opposition.
Language issues have to be handled sensitively in view of their emotional overtones,
as witnessed recentlyPrepared by Dr.N.Asokan
87. Conclusion:
Suggestions of the Draft National Education
Policy will play a critical role in the
transformation of the Indian education
system. It is expected to help India in reaping
its demographic dividend. However, the Draft
National Education Policy has certain sore
points that need to be relooked at for the
benefit of teachers and students alike.
