The new National Education Policy was brought and introduced in July 2020. After 34 years, the Union Cabinet finally waived off to give fresh yet very required revisions to our education system. However, as the new Education Policy made its path down the road to reach you, covid-19 got in its way, and just like that its implementation got delayed. But now it looks like it’s bound to greet you in a very fruitful manner. If you’re a parent or a student, then this news comes bearing good future fortune for you indeed as the new structure provides a platform to create a brighter future. From the moment NEP 2020 was introduced, dedicated MTG experts, educators, researchers, and book curators started redesigning and updating the School Books for all grades to bring these thoughtful changes to their everyday lives and provide them just what they need.
Through the NEP 2020, the government intends to transform India into a “Global Knowledge Superpower,” and the only way to do so is to make school and college education more flexible, comprehensive, and multi-disciplinary, highlighting their unique strengths. The best way to bring about and execute these changes in students’ life is to provide them with the study material that incorporates NEP 2020 revisions into its books. Your first goal should be to bring home school books that follow the National Education Policy and align with its guidelines strictly.
With more practical knowledge and digital experiences, NEP wants to prepare children for the real world.
There is nothing better to rely on than MTG School Books because these are all created keeping the greatest NEP practices and changes in mind. MTG’s School Books will teach students practical skills through experiments and real-world challenges.
To optimize learning, all books are approved by specialists with the student’s well-being in mind. MTG also provides E-books to students, as part of the new NEP’s goal to integrate digital literacy with digital form of books. Hence, MTG School Books are precisely what you require to assist your child in coping with these new changes to brighten their future.
How Are the Objectives of NEP 2020 & MTG School Books Similar?
NEP is built on four systematic and thoughtful pillars: Access, Equity, Quality, and Accountability. The policy’s most prominent aspect will be its newly constructed structure of 5+3+3+4, which incorporates 12 years of school and 3 years of Anganwadi/pre-school, replacing the existing education structure of 10+2. However, then comes the changes and features that provide a new way of learning in all grades and thus provide a broader approach to their future career paths. Some of the changes which must also be implemented in the school books for all students soon are mentioned below.
- All schools will be taught under the 5+3+3+4 formula replacing the 10+2 structure.
- Students up to the 5th standard will be taught in their mother tongue, the local language, and the national language only. The rest of the subjects, even English, will only be taught as a subject.
- All students will be allowed to do other vocational courses in between their ongoing school syllabus. The student can do so by taking a short-term break for a limited time from their ongoing school syllabus. Many e-courses will be started in regional languages.
- Virtual labs will be developed and learning will be provided in a more practical manner to prepare students for the real world.
- A National Educational Scientific Forum (NESF) will be started.
- E-Books must be provided to students for all subjects and courses to prevent heavy school bags and reduce their burden.
Now that we know what these changes are, everyone must understand what type of changes the students require in their school books. The good news is that MTG’s objectives were always aligned with the education system and our School Books always aim to provide learning to the students in a more approachable and practical manner. It would be inevitable to say that MTG’s School Books are absolutely in line and aligned with all the changes in the new National Education Policy and they are the first to bring updated books to provide more flexible learning for the students.

Conclusion? MTG School Books Prepare Students For The Outside World!
According to the 12th Five-Year Plan, only 5% of Indians aged 19 to 24 have received formal vocational education, which is far too low when compared to other countries such as the United States (52%), Germany (75%), and South Korea (96%). The reason behind this is more rote learning and less experiential learning to prepare them for real-world scenarios. With the new National Education Policy, 2020, and the up-gradation of MTG School Books accordingly, we hope this culture ends and students practice and learn more with practical experiences. Therefore, with age-appropriate study materials, critical thinking exercises, experiments, activities for practical learning, and connections for more observations, MTG tends to cease rote learning and bring focus on experiential learning for all students in this nation.
