Authors:

Nidhi Gulati, Manish Jain

Abstract:

This paper provides a review of pre-service teacher education related policies and reports. It looks at the core concerns and outlines a brief trajectory of the policies over time. It points to the continuities and departures of the recent policy with earlier recommendations pertaining to enhanced duration TE programmes, limited institutional capacities, strengthening disciplinary knowledge domains and the question of standards. The paper deliberates on the concerns that the National Education Policy 2020 implementation must be attentive to in order to achieve the policy’s articulated and intended goals.
