National Curriculum Framework, 2005 

The National Policy of Education from 1986 and the National Curriculum Frameworks that followed have been considered when modifying state curricula and materials on a regular basis. When updating the curriculum and text materials, the 84 essential values emphasized in NPE 1986 and the 10 basic components were kept in mind.

The 10 basic components are: 

  1. The history of India’s freedom movement;
  2. The constitutional obligations; 
  3. the content essential to nurturing national identity;
  4. India’s common cultural heritage; 
  5. Egalitarianism, democracy, and secularism; 
  6. equality of sexes; 
  7. protection of the environment;
  8. The removal of social barriers;
  9. Small family norms and 
  10. inculcation of scientific temper. 

Before it was finalized, the program reform was also addressed with topic specialists and teaching staff in seminars conducted by DIETs and CTEs around the province. Before being introduced to the entire region, the books were also fully tested by being used for a year in a few randomly selected districts and receiving feedback.
