NEP 2020: A Note to the Parents of KV Students

With the vision of achieving universal foundational literacy and numeracy by the end of grade 3 by 2026-27 , the Government of India launched the National Mission on Foundational Literacy and Numeracy on 5th July, 2021 to attain its objectives by 2026-27. The mission is known as the ‘National Initiative for Proficiency in Reading with Understanding and Numeracy’ (NIPUN Bharat). States and UTs have a critical role to play in the implementation of the mission. Students, along with their schools, teachers, parents, and communities, must be urgently supported and encouraged in every way possible to help carry out this all-important target and mission, which indeed forms the basis of all future learning. It will focus on children of age group of 3 to 9 years including pre-school to Grade 3. The goals and objectives of the mission are required to be achieved by all Govt., Govt. aided and Private Schools so that universal acquisition of FLN skills can be achieved by 2026-27.
