Odisha to implement NEP-2020 at school level; to adopt state curriculum framework
New Indian ExpressBHUBANESWAR: After higher education, the National Education Policy -2020 will be implemented at school-level in Odisha. In a notification, the School and Mass Education department on Wednesday informed that for strengthening of the educational system, NEP-2020 will be implemented in the state and the National Curriculum Framework with local contextualisation will be adopted as the State Curriculum Framework for Odisha. One of the most important changes NEP aims to bring to the school education system is the transition from the exam-centric 10+2 schooling design to the new 5+3+3+4 pedagogical structure which comprises 12 years of school and 3 years of pre-schooling. According to the Ministry of Education, schooling will be divided into four stages based on age-specific learning - foundational stage for ages 3 to 8, preparatory stage for ages 8 to 11, middle stage for ages 11 to 14, and secondary stage for ages 14 to 18. Students will spend five years in the foundational, three years in the preparatory, three years in the middle, and the final four years in the secondary stages.
