Here are the key factors of the current education system in India:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. New Academic Structure<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.21kschool.com\/th\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2025\/07\/New-Academic-Structure.png\" alt=\"New Academic Structure\" class=\"wp-image-10531\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.education.gov.in\/sites\/upload_files\/mhrd\/files\/NEP_Final_English_0.pdf\"><strong>National Education Policy<\/strong><\/a> (NEP) has proposed a new <strong>5+3+3+4 structure<\/strong> to the learning journey: <strong>foundational <\/strong>(5 years), <strong>preparatory <\/strong>(3 years), <strong>middle <\/strong>(3 years), and <strong>secondary <\/strong>(4 years).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2.

It aims to teach students <strong>how to think <\/strong>rather than just memorise, as well as <strong>apply their knowledge in real-life situations<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3.

After this, the medium of instruction is in <strong>English<\/strong>, but the students continue to learn their local language in the form of a <strong>second or third language<\/strong>.

The policy acknowledges that to support educators, <strong>ongoing training, new pedagogical practice, <\/strong>and <strong>development opportunities<\/strong> must be provided.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">9.
