Community & School Collaboration: Parents, local stakeholders, and peer schools play a vital role in sustainable NEP implementation.
Assessing the Current State
Schools are guided to evaluate their curriculum, infrastructure, and teacher readiness. This diagnostic approach identifies where support is needed to align with NEP 2020.
Curriculum Alignment
Curricula must embed NEP’s five core competencies and reflect local context. NagaEd supports schools in redesigning content for multidisciplinary and skill-based delivery.
