Changes in school education will be tested at every level, National Achievement Survey will be the basis

The dreams of reforming school education through the new National Education Policy (NEP) will be tested on the ground along with the implementation of the policy. This test will take place at a fixed interval at each of the levels. Along with this, the level at which the need is considered, it will also be strengthened further. For the time being, the basis of this entire assessment will be the recently published National Achievement Survey (NAS)-2021 report. In which still children were found to be moderately weak in subjects like maths and science.

According to the Education Ministry, there will be a National Achievement Survey (NAS) again after three years to assess the changes in school education, which will be based on the standards set for 2021. This will happen in 2024. Based on its performance, changes in school education will be judged. Anyway, by then most of the NEP's school education recommendations would have been implemented. In such a situation, the report of NAS will be very important from the point of view of school education.

In this survey conducted in November 2021, 1.18 lakh schools across the country in 720 districts have participated. In which 34 lakh students of 3rd, 5th, 8th and 10th class participated.
