Integrated B.Ed.

(According to new National Education Policy – NEP)

The minimum degree qualification for teaching will be a 4-year Integrated B.Ed. course and stringent action will be taken against “substandard” stand-alone Teacher Education Institutions, according to the new National Education Policy (NEP).

A common National Professional Standards for Teachers (NPST) will be developed by the National Council for Teacher Education by 2022, in consultation with NCERT, SCERTs, Teachers and Expert organizations from across levels and regions.

The standards would cover expected roles of the teacher at different levels of expertise and stage, and the competencies required for that stage. This could be adopted by states to determine all aspects of teacher career management, including tenure, professional development efforts, salary increases, promotions, and other recognitions. The professional standards will be reviewed and revised in 2030, and thereafter every ten years,” it added.

By 2021, a new and comprehensive National Curriculum Framework for Teacher Education will be formulated by the National Council of Teacher Education (NCTE) in consultation with the NCERT.

The new policy has also focused on transparency in teacher recruitment process and need for a mechanism for periodic performance review of teachers.

“Teachers will be recruited through robust, transparent processes. Promotions will be merit-based, and a mechanism for multi-source periodic performance appraisals will be put in place. Progression paths to become educational administrators or teacher educators will be available for the teachers,” the policy said.
