- Education is on the concurrent list.The policy space, finance and administrative management is shared between centre and state. Hence, constitutional provision does not support imposition of common curriculum. What is possible and wise is to provide a common curriculum framework for states to adopt or adapt to suit its socio-cultural and economics needs and specialities.
- Education, especially school education, is culturally embedded. It's neither possible nor wise to merge cultural specificity and diversities of India into one mortar. That will destroy the very idea of India and its charming diversity.
- I did compare during one of my tenures as head of a national institution curriculum from different boards. Variation in science and maths is hardly 10 to 15% as one of the colleagues has already mentioned above. Difference is in social studies, language and literature; and that should continue. It will be futile, if not foolish, to know not one's village, district, state, country, continent, world and universe, and in that sequence.
- Unlike one would like to believe, there's not enough proof that infrastructure, teacher salary and training improves quality of education. Our colleagues may know that private schools pay the teachers, as per rules, salary at the level of the state norms where the school is located. Many private schools pay actually less than what they should. And teacher salary costs more than 85% of total education budget. Thus teacher qualification and job condition are same in private and government schools. Government schools are poor quality not because of poor facilities only. These are unsupervised, unaccountable. Teacher training is ritual. NITI Aayog has recommended Evidence based technology enabled learning.
- There are a few important questions. What makes government funded schools in Tamil Nadu, Karnataka, Kerala fare better in school education? Why does not it happen in the heartland? Why and how do Kendriya Vidyalayas (another chain of government schools) give run for money to the private schools affiliated to CBSE schools? There's lot to research to rediscover and re-imagine Indian school education than arm chair policies removed from grassroots.

Whether common curriculum will fulfill the common needs of common man commonly?
If the IQ, living conditions, traditions and culture are not common or uniform or standardized, what is the common base of the common curriculum?

Subject: Re: [MTC Global] Do you support common curriculum for school education?Objective of a curriculum is to get the student ready for future challanges.Because of multiple boards there is no uniformity and students from state boards face challange in all India competitive entrance exams for higher studies or professional courses.Curriculum of the state boards are designed keeping in mind the student demography, development status eyc. They relatively weaker compared to CBSE.For example a text book of Jharkhand or Assam, or Odisha board will not be of same level as that of Delhi or Karnataka board.This advantage is taken by coaching centres to get them ready.Though such tution/ coaching will still exist (considering the speed / short cuts and techniques they claim and students rly upon) at least a uniform platform will emerge where all students will find themselves.Regards,

Education Minister has proposed the same and soon MHRD is coming out with the common curriculum to ensure uniformity, better outcome and inclusiveness. No more CBSE , ICSE and State Syllabus. Not sure about what will happen to international / Cambridge curriculum. AICTE and UGC will soon replace by HEERA as proposed by Niti Aayog. Indian education space is going through lot of reforms.
All central university has the similar curriculum which is against the objective of setting up of central university to explore the local potential, connect with the local resources and development of the particular region.
Is it such reforms, or something else to be fixed to ensure better outcome?
