Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

Article link: Maharashtra state board to adopt NCERT for maths & science


Extract from the article:

The Maharashtra state board plans to implement the NCERT curriculum for mathematics and science gradually, starting with classes 1, 3, 5, 8, and 11 in the academic year of 2025-26.

This transition will involve all non-English medium schools shifting to a semi-English mode of education, with NCERT textbooks being adopted. The move aims to standardize and enhance the quality of education across the state.

This decision by the Maharashtra state board reflects a strategic effort to align the curriculum with national standards, allowing students to benefit from a more uniform and structured educational framework.

By integrating NCERT materials, the board intends to improve the learning outcomes in mathematics and science, ensuring students receive a robust foundation in these critical subjects.


My Take:

STATE OF EDUCATION

"In my previous blog post titled 'State of Education,' I highlighted the need for standardized quality in education across the country. The adoption of NCERT by the Maharashtra state board echoes the significance of implementing uniform standards in academic content.

This initiative aligns with the aim of establishing a consistent level of education, which is crucial for enhancing student learning outcomes."

CONGRATULATIONS SMT. VARSHA

"In another blog post, I discussed the integration of technology in education, emphasizing the importance of tools like Google Classroom for interactive learning.

The training of 40,000 master trainers for teachers and the emphasis on digital platforms by Maharashtra's education authorities demonstrate a progressive approach towards enhancing the teaching-learning process.

This digital transformation, coupled with curriculum reforms, promises a more engaging and efficient educational experience for both educators and students."


Call to Action:

To the Maharashtra State Board of Education and policymakers involved in curriculum development: Embrace feedback from teachers, students, and parents during the phased implementation of the NCERT curriculum.

Ensure adequate support and resources for a smooth transition, fostering a conducive learning environment for all stakeholders.
