NPST : National Professional Standards for Teachers
Context :
Extract :
NPST, as
envisioned in Para 5.20 of NEP 2020, aims to enhance the professional
development of teachers by providing clear expectations and
guidelines for competency-wise improvement.
Kesang Y. Sherpa IRS, Member Secretary NCTE [ helpdesk@ncte-india.org ]

],
shared the roadmap of the workshop clarifying the goals and
objectives of the workshop. She also emphasized that the assessment of the performance of teachers will be
done through dedicated tools, peer reviews, etc. developed by NCTE.
Dear Teachers :
I have no idea as to the type of “
dedicated tools “ that
Smt Kesang Sherpa has in mind for assessing your performance
Nor do you
But it would be wise for you not to wait till such time these tools get designed and handed
to your Principals
Without waiting , hundreds of teachers around the country have started
impressing their Principals by marked improvement in the “ marks / score “ obtained by their students ( a true
measure of their own
COMPETANCY )
They are just :
Ø Visiting www.My-Teacher.in
Ø Selecting > I am a Teacher
-
and
improving their NPST [ National Professional Standard for Teachers ]
By administering such impromptu / surprise exams
( without any notice ), they are telling their students :
Ø When you are ready to face an exam , on ANY DAY of the
year – and without prior notice ,
Ø You shall not mug-up and vomit what you have “ stored
“ in your brain ( like stored in a hard disk )
Ø You must cultivate / train your mind to be INQUISITIVE
and ask “ Questions
Beyond Syllabus “
Dear Teachers :
How about improving your own “ Subject Knowledge “ by taking some Mock Tests yourself ?
With regards,
Hemen Parekh
