In news : Recently, the Union Finance Minister during her budget speech proposed to convert 15000 schools into exemplar schools

Key proposals

Following proposals have been made by the Union Finance Minister during her Budget speech:

  • Higher education cluster in nine cities each for coordination among institutions and aiding collective growth without infringing their individual autonomy
  • Qualitative strengthening of 15,000 schools to include all components of the NEP. 
  • These exemplar schools in their regions will mentor other institutions to achieve ideals of the policy and this has been welcomed by several industry experts.
  • The National Professional Standards for Teachers (NPST) is to be developed as proposed in the NEP
  • The budget also made an announcement about the revamping of the post-matric scholarship scheme
  • The Central government will also introduce a legislation to set up a Higher Education Commission of India, as envisioned in the new education policy, to create an umbrella body that will have “four separate vehicles” for standard-setting, accreditation, regulation and funding

How do Exemplar Schools will work?

Few Kendriya Vidyalayas and Navodaya Vidyalays will also be developed as exemplars for showcasing implementation of NEP 2020 and emerging as schools of excellence.
