National Curriculum Framework 2023:

The National Council For Education, Research, and Training(NCERT) recently released the NCF. The National Curriculum Framework for School Education (NCF) was developed to facilitate the implementation of the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020.

The first NCF was released in 1986, followed by revisions in 2000, 2005, and 2020. The modifications of the NCF have taken into account the changing educational landscape, such as new developments in academic research and technology, changing social and economic contexts, and the evolving needs of students and society.

The pre-draft of NCF 2023 is the latest one, with a few amendments aligning with the NEP’s vision, like change in board exams for 10 and 12 and assessment patterns for 3 to 8 classes.

The NCF 2023 addresses education for children from 3 to 18 years old across all Indian school system. It applies to all four Stages of the NEP 2020-envisioned 5+3+3+4 Curricular and Pedagogical Restructuring of School Education. This NCF draft focuses on the developmental perspectives, adopting different teaching methods, and curriculum changes at four different learning stages: Foundational, Preparatory, Middle, and Secondary level
