Needoeducation i.e. education of needs is required to stimulate a person to do the necessary efforts in the direction of fulfillment of the need. If the base of one’s action is one’s need, faster or better the efforts are done in the direction of its fulfillment. Likewise, if we know what the society needs before framing any policy the chances of its success increase. The commencement of NEP 2020 started many discussions regarding the basis of the policy. Hence the present study was designed to assess that how far NEP 2020 is based on Needoeducation. How many needs of the people have been considered while framing it. The actual status of Indian schools, teachers and students and what problem they are facing while following it was focused in it. The data was collected from 240 secondary school teachers using self-prepared statements. On the basis of %age it was found that 69% school teachers experienced dissatisfaction with the current education policy that prevailed before the commencement of NEP 2020. 77% school teachers agree that there is need to change the current education system. Many changes were needed according to them. Comparison of those needs with the NEP 2020 indicated these needs have been considered while framing NEP 2020.
