Kerala trying to come up with alternative to national curriculum reform, says CM

Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan has said that Kerala is trying to put forward a model, which will be an alternative to the curriculum reform recommended by the National Education Policy.

Inaugurating a ladies’ hostel, academic block, and smart classrooms at Government Brennan College, Thalassery, on Saturday, he said the government was trying to make Kerala a hub of higher education, and that the curriculum reform was the most important step towards that.

The government has decided to start a four-year degree programme, he said. “It is not possible to create a knowledge society by imparting knowledge alone. Its basis should be the sense of humanity and love for fellow beings,” Mr. Vijayan said.
