Making of NCF-2005
(a) the school system is characterized by an inflexibility that makes it resistant to change; (b) learning has become an isolated activity, which does not encourage children to link knowledge with their lives in any organic or vital way; (c) schools promote a regime of thought that discourages creative thinking and insights; (d) what is presented and transmitted in the name of learning in schools bypasses vital dimensions of the human capacity to create new knowledge; (e) the future of the child has taken centre stage to the near exclusion of the child's" present, which is detrimental to the well-being of the child as well as the society and the nation.
