Latest news on education in India, covering schools, universities, CBSE, IIT, NEET, exam updates, education policy, EdTech initiatives and learning reforms across the nation.
India's education system, the world's largest by student population with over 350 million learners, encompasses more than 1.5 million schools, 40,000 colleges, and 1,000 universities. The system operates under the Ministry of Education and follows the National Education Policy 2020, which aims to transform India into a global knowledge superpower.
Recent developments include the widespread adoption of digital learning platforms, implementation of multidisciplinary education at universities, and increased focus on skill development programmes. The government has launched several initiatives to improve access to quality education, including the PM-SHRI schools scheme for modernising over 14,000 schools and significant investments in digital infrastructure for remote learning.
Education in India continues to be a powerful force for social mobility and economic advancement. Success stories from rural government schools, innovative teaching methods in urban classrooms, and breakthrough achievements by Indian students at international competitions showcase the system's potential. Programmes like 'Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao' have helped increase girls' enrollment rates significantly across all education levels.
The roots of India's education system trace back to ancient centres of learning like Nalanda and Takshashila. Post-independence reforms transformed education into a fundamental right, with the Right to Education Act 2009 making free education compulsory for children aged 6-14. This historical journey has shaped today's blend of traditional values and modern pedagogical approaches.
