New Education Policy: Reviewing India’s NEP and Singapore’s Future-Ready Systems
Education is undergoing massive transformation in India, Singapore, and worldwide. Policy shifts and a growing global consensus that learning must evolve beyond rote memorization and standardized testing are shifting the focus toward skills, mindset, and experiential learning. At the heart of this evolution is a shared vision: nurturing future-ready learners.
Kidspreneurship is proud to offer a plug-and-play platform designed to meet the evolving needs of primary education systems worldwide. From India’s New Education Policy (NEP 2020) to Singapore’s future-centric learning model, our program helps schools seamlessly integrate 21st-century skills, entrepreneurial thinking, and real-world learning, while upskilling teachers and empowering them with the pedagogical tools to run world-class experiential learning programs.
India’s New Education Policy (NEP 2020): A Paradigm Shift
The New Education Policy (India) launched in 2020, represents a bold departure from traditional, exam-driven learning. It emphasizes:
- Experiential learning and foundational literacy
- Multidisciplinary and holistic education
- Skill development and creativity from an early age
- Flexibility in curriculum and pedagogy
Vocational education and entrepreneurial thinking, even at the school level
Where Kidspreneurship Fits In:
Kidspreneurship’s curriculum aligns with the intent of the NEP by offering a hands-on, modular program designed for children aged 8–12. It supports schools by:
- Encouraging critical thinking and creativity
- Providing project-based, real-world learning
- Integrating financial literacy, communication, collaboration and problem-solving into core learning
- Reducing dependency on rote methods with dynamic digital content and physical kits
- Empowering students with a growth mindset that aligns with NEP’s holistic vision
Our Program requires just one hour per week, making it ideal for schools that want to supplement their existing curriculum efficiently with ready-to-use lesson plans and teacher guides.
