RADICAL CHANGE NEEDED FOR OUR SCHOOL SYLLABUS
The need for a radical change for our school syllabus was discussed here many times. Unfortunately, no any action is found to have taken in this matter so far. I think NCERT may seriously consider this issue. School Syllabus is the one that build a child into a full-fledged human being. When we try to make the student a competitive professional, such one should also be a disciplined citizen. Political parties have made our schools and colleges into cultivable land for the growth of violent politics. The antisocial elements are trying to convert these institutions into trading ground for narcotics. What a pitiful state of our country. A principal of a college, as reported by social media and later highlighted to the government level, open sex has become a routine thing in a college in Northern Kerala. All these vices are taking place with the support of political parties.
Considering all these vices and negative contributions from different areas of the society NCERT may try to look at the possibilities of going for an overhaul of our school syllabus from Class 4 to Class 12. The following subjects may be repeatedly included in different classes in appropriate densities.
Monetory and other corruption, excessive politics, use of religion in politics, safety of women, all about narcotics, cleanliness of public places, waste disposal, road use, wall writing, erecting flag posts on road and all sorts of encroachment of public places, politics free educational institutions, adulteration of food articles, using pesticides on vegetables and fruits, behaviour at public places etc may be included in the syllabus.
If we want to take our country to the forefront of the world in wealth, happiness and power we must now mould the charector and behaviour of our children, provide them adequate knowledge and make them disciplined and ensure that they are in the forefront of the world.
Let NCERT do the remaining things.
