(Draft National Educational Policy 2019)
Impact of NEP2019 on Education
The national education policy part II deals with the higher education system of the country. Let's have a thorough revision of the chapters and its impact on education system in a broader sense. Chapter 9 deals with Quality Universities and Colleges: A New and Forward Looking Vision for India's Higher Education System. The objective is to increase the number of quality universities and colleges and to increase the gross enrolment ratio. If the number of quality universities are increased, then those who are eligible they will get the opportunities to peruse higher studies. It will enable the individuals to develop a creative bent of mind with good ethical and constitutional values. With the increase of vocational and technical education job opportunists will also increase with efficient technical knowhow person. With the multidisciplinary approaches of higher education there will be optimum resource utilisation which is very necessary for country like India. Chapter 10 deals with Institutional Restructuring and Consolidation. According to my point of view Institutional restructuring and consolidation is a serious move to ensure full access, equity, and inclusion. As the universities are divided into different types so there will be no division Type I (public, private, or private-aided), Type II (comprehensive teaching universities), Type III (All currently affiliated colleges, must develop into autonomous degree granting colleges). Chapter 11 talks about a move Towards a More Liberal Education. Liberal education should have a wider impact on the society. Through liberal education individual can accumulate learning experiences from different branches of knowledge. Through liberal education both the creative and the analytical skills of the students will develop so the students will become more creative and innovative. So more quality research work will come up in PhD level. Chapter 12 deals with Optimal Learning Environments and Support for Students. Learning environment should be conducive enough to pursue higher education so that students can work independently . Proper care and support system is vital to provide beneficial condition to the students. Chapter 13 deals with Energised, Engaged and Capable Faculty. Engaging good quality and capable faculty is the prerequisite in higher educational set up. To work engage properly independence of work is important which will help them to creatively design their own curricular and pedagogical approaches. Chapter 14 National Research Foundation. With the development of a critical research bent of mind it may help to address different social issues and probably may give some suitable solution to the problem. Chapter 15 talks about Teacher Education teachers are the pillars of education department. If they are trained properly then they can be a good mentor in future. They should have strong theory and practical knowledge. Chapter 16 Professional Education. Professionalism plays an important role for the development of any institution. Reforms should be made in professional education deals with law, medicine and technical education.Chapter 17 Empowered Governance and Effective Leadership for Higher Education Institutions. To run any educational institutions governance and effective leadership are the prerequisite things It has been noticed a lack of ethical standards, public spirit and institutional commitment effect the institutional set up. As it is suggested that all the private and public higher institutions should have independent Board of governance so HEI operates as a public-spirited institution striving for excellence and not as a commercial body. The BoG shall be accountable to bring better educational outcomes including efficiency and productivity. Chapter 18 Transforming the Regulatory System. With the introduction of a proper regulatory system higher education system has become more systematic and comprehended. To monitored and accredited Higher educational institutions NAAC will play an important role. NAAC is an independent, autonomous body and be given the responsibility of overseeing accreditation of all institutions of higher education, across all disciplines and field. All the Higher educational institutions which ever will offer degree or diploma in any mode of education will be accredited, if not accredited will be dismissed. If the educational institutions fulfil certain criteria, then only it will be declared as Higher Educational Institutions. (National Education Policy 2019)
Conclusion
So overall it can be said that NEP 2019 will have positive impact on the total educational system of our country, as it is highlighting on every sphere of higher education. If it is implemented properly then Gross Enrolment Ratio will increase and which will create more employment opportunities.
