Impact of National Education Policy 2020 on Teacher’s Diversity and Student Achievement

Abstract

As Chanakya once said, "teachers are not ordinary; they are the ones who make a nation's foundation strong," which is even relevant today. In our culture, we say Mata, Pita, Guru, and Devam, where the Teacher is above god. Teachers are the reason that we are where we are; whatever we have achieved in life, it is because of the letters that were taught to us where the letters evolved into sentences, where sentences evolved into subjects, and where subjects evolved into specialization. A teacher's teaching from their subject knowledge and experience helps a student make decisions properly because he will avoid mistakes and, in turn, save time and move ahead. This study aims at focusing on the impact that NEP (National Education Policy) 2020 has created on the teacher’s diversity and its impact on student’s achievement before and after its implementation. The NEP 2020 was a much-needed change in the Indian education policy that focuses more on practical oriented teaching when compared to the present policy where students are thought methodically without any real time impact. This policy is more comprehensive not only teaching wise but the inclusion of teachers from various background and having a good experience in the particular subject and expertise in that industry, this is a boon for students since they will have access to industry specialist which will enhance their further knowledge and in turn can achieve many things by applying that knowledge to push himself in the market
