Under the New Education Policy, many important changes are taking place in the education policy of the country. One of these major changes has been made by the Union Ministry of Education. The Ministry of Education has instructed all the states and union territories that now no child will be admitted in class one before the age of 6 years. This is a big change. According to the new National Education Policy, according to the Ministry of Education, the age of 5 years is the beginning of the children’s learning and fundamental stage.
What was the rule before
Last year According to the information given in the Lok Sabha on a question in March, the age of admission in the first class is different in different states of the country. During that time it was told that there are 14 states and union territories of the country, where children were allowed to take admission in the first class before the age of 6 years. Gujarat, Telangana, Ladakh, Assam and Puducherry are the states and union territories where 5-year-old children were also admitted in the first class.
Where admission is done after 5 years
In the information given in the Lok Sabha itself, it was told that in states like Rajasthan, Delhi, Andhra Pradesh, Haryana, Uttarakhand, Karnataka, Goa, Jharkhand and Kerala, the minimum age of children to take admission in class 1 is more than 5 years. Should be On March 28, 2022, when the Ministry of Education presented its report in the Lok Sabha, it said that the measurement of the net enrollment ratio in different states was being affected due to non-adherence to the age of admission in the first class as per the new National Education Policy.
