SCERT's academic master plan for schools envisages planning at multiple levels
The academic master plan prepared by the State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT) to attain the goal of quality education in schools lays stress on planning at multiple levels to ensure academic growth and development of each student. The plan envisages the school-level master plan as a framework that includes the school's vision, academic objectives, resource utilisation, and activities. To implement the above though, class, subject-level, and individual master plans need to be prepared. The class master plan should go into the education requirements of students in each class and the objectives of each subject and this should inform the classroom activities that teachers need to plan. At an individual level The individual master plan is slightly more complex for it requires teachers to understand each student's talents, interests, and difficulties to ensure they get the academic support and motivation to enable them to do well. Projects implemented by the General Education department at the State level, districts' own projects, and schools' own projects should be included in school master plans. Learning values In order to enhance the effectiveness of academic activities, it should be ensured that students achieve the learning outcomes and competencies for that particular grade. Along with this, children should be provided with experiences that help them learn values such as secularism, democracy, and humaneness. It should be ensured that children, through various activities, develop the knowledge and ability to take a position on social ills such as drugs or substance abuse and are aware of the importance of good physical and mental health; personal hygiene and clean surroundings; road safety; gender equality and health gender relationships; and environmental consciousness and waste management. Equal opportunities The master plan emphasises equal opportunities for students to study and grow and identify their talents and develop them. Besides academic support, the plan calls for making sure that students make progress in core subjects. A system should be developed so that besides the mother tongue, students also hone their skills and fluency in English and Hindi. Modern technology should be utilised for learning, including for differently abled students. The General Education department had given directions for preparation of class master plans and individual master plans earlier too, but these were not implemented effectively. The focus on quality improvement this year has seen a renewed thrust on master plan preparation and implementation.

UP to revamp DElEd English curriculum in line with NEP 2020
The curriculum for the English subject in the Diploma in Elementary Education (DElEd) programme—offered in 67 district institutes of Education and Training (DIETs) and 2,974 private colleges across Uttar Pradesh—is set to be revamped in alignment with the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020. Experts of ELTI-Prayagraj during a discussion (HT ) Subject specialists from the Prayagraj-based English Language Teaching Institute (ELTI) have begun work on this overhaul, officials informed. The DElEd is a two-year diploma programme designed for candidates aspiring to become teachers in primary and upper primary schools. Its popularity is evident from the 3,25,440 applications received for admission to the 2024 session, according to data from the Exam Regulatory Authority, Uttar Pradesh, headquartered in Prayagraj. English is taught in the second and fourth semesters of the DElEd programme. The current English curriculum was last developed by ELTI in 2014, when the course was still known as the Basic Training Certificate (BTC). Since then, the educational landscape has evolved significantly—particularly with the inclusion of pre-primary education under NEP-2020, a component not covered in the existing curriculum, officials explained. In addition, NCERT textbooks for classes 1 to 3 have already been adapted to meet the specific needs of Uttar Pradesh and integrated into the school curriculum. Plans are in place to extend NCERT books up to class 8 in the near future. These books differ notably in structure and content, necessitating distinct teaching strategies and customised practice workbooks, they added. 'The English curriculum for DElEd is being comprehensively revised in accordance with NEP-2020. The previous version, created in 2014, no longer meets current educational demands. With the inclusion of NCERT textbooks and a shift in teaching methods, updating the syllabus has become essential. Feedback from trainees has been instrumental in shaping these changes,' said Skand Shukla, principal of ELTI-Prayagraj, a unit of the State Council of Educational Research and Training (SCERT), Uttar Pradesh. In response to these developments, the new English curriculum will be aligned with the updated school education system to ensure DElEd trainees gain relevant skills and competencies. The revised course will also feature components on artificial intelligence (AI) and language learning, along with the application of computer, information, and communication technologies in English language teaching. Crucially, feedback from DIET trainees has been incorporated to ensure the curriculum revision reflects their actual learning needs and challenges, Shukla added. In another key development, for the first time, the Rajya Hindi Sansthan, Varanasi, has developed official Hindi textbooks for all four semesters of the DElEd programme. Previously, students lacked access to authentic learning materials in Hindi and had to rely on guides or unauthorised publications, officials acknowledged.
