Boards To Assess Understanding of Students

The NCF also provides students the flexibility to choose the streams for classes 11 and 12. The education minister has also added that students are required to study two languages out of which one has to be an Indian language for classes 11 and 12. The textbooks for the 2024 academic year will be developed accordingly.
Boards will be required to develop capacities to offer on-demand and test developers for boars and evaluators will be required to undergo thorough university-certified courses before beginning.
Union Minister stated that under the guidance of Kasturirangan, the steering committee has prepared the curriculum for the NEP and submitted the same to the government which was then given to the NCERT. Two committees were formed by the NCERT which are the National Oversight Committee (NOC) and the National syllabus ad Textbook Committee (NSTC). It is expected that both these committees will prepare the syllabus according to the current requirements and will be based on original Indian thinking.
