KOLKATA : HRD minister Prakash Javadekar on Saturday hinted at abiding by way of the Madras High Court order of getting rid of homework in classes I and II.
“We will unquestionably observe the order. I believe children must attend college to learn with a laugh and must now not be put beneath any pressure. We shall learn about the order and do no matter is conceivable to cut back their burden,” the Union minister said in a press convention on Saturday.
Javadekar expressed hope to move the invoice by way of amending the Right of Children to Free and Compulsory Education Act – 2009 in the upcoming monsoon session of Parliament. “The Congress has now not allowed us to carry the Parliament session. By March 2019, every state will be capable of deliver back pass-fail in classes V and VIII. As many as 25 states, including Bengal, have agreed to the proposal,” he added.
Once the pass-fail system is introduced back, scholars will probably be detained in the two classes over deficient performance. However, after attending remedial classes for 2 months, unsuccessful scholars will probably be given a possibility to re-appear in any other examination. “They should repeat the category provided that they fail the second time. Each state can introduce the pass-fail system most effective in classes V and VIII as doing the similar in any other standard will require additional modification of the RTE Act 2009,” explained Javadekar.
The HRD minister stressed that training was once now not about memorizing and rote studying but about comprehension, verbal exchange and development of analytical abilities. “The earlier NCERT syllabus was once cramped and didn't allow scholars to experience good enough bodily activities. It has already been proposed to cut back the syllabus by way of part. We have won 37,000 ideas based on every class and subjects. All the proposals had been forwarded to the lecturers who're operating on it and will quickly get a hold of a plan. Based on it, some portion of the NCERT-prescribed syllabus will probably be reduced in 2019 and again some in 2020,” pointed out Javadekar.
MHRD is also set to unveil a new training policy by way of the end of June. “The proposals will probably be positioned earlier than the Union cupboard for approval. It will probably be a comprehensive policy because it comes to training of the following generation studying between 2020-2040,” the minister added.
State training minister Partha Chatterjee, however, wants to adopt a wait-andwatch policy. “Unless the Centre re-introduces the pass-fail system, Bengal is not going to accomplish that on its own,” Chatterjee said on Saturday. He also supported the transfer to ban homework for students in classes I and II. “I want to talk with leader minister Mamata Banerjee if the Centre brings any proposal,” the state training minister said.
A CBSE college major in Salt Lake said the proposal to cut back the burden of schoolbags may just now not be applied but. “Such recommendations to do away with homework and cut back syllabus by way of incorporating obligatory bodily excercise time will probably be a boon for students,” she said.
