From the continued response to pandemic disruptions to culture war issues that have surfaced in schools, 2022 was an eventful year for U.S. schools and education policy. That looks to be true for 2023 as well.

Below, experts from the Brown Center on Education Policy identify the education stories that they’ll be following in 2023, providing analysis on how these issues could shape the learning landscape for the next 12 months—and possibly well into the future.

In 2023, I’ll be watching innovative state and local efforts to better fund childcare and better support early educators. The pandemic highlighted the essential role childcare plays in the lives of children, families, and the U.S. economy. It also made clear that without greater public support, childcare providers cannot pay teachers adequately and cannot offer families essential supports. The high teacher turnover rates common in early childhood settings compromise quality, and during the pandemic, they also compromised access to care.  In Virginia,  two thirds of publicly funded childcare centers  shut down classrooms or turned families away because they could not recruit and retain teachers.  

Pandemic relief dollars provided an essential lifeline to childcare. However, as these funds run out, states are now facing a stark funding cliff which will exacerbate staffing challenges considerably.  New Mexico  recently passed a ballot measure to establish a permanent funding source in the state constitution, making it the first state in the country to do so . Washington, D.C. approved funding  to work towards childcare compensation that approaches the pay of other D.C. teachers.   Virginia  recently changed their approach to funding subsidized childcare to better account for the true cost of childcare, including better compensation. I’m hopeful other states will follow with big investments and that as the federal funding cliff approaches, we’ll finally see large federal investments in childcare.

Heading into 2023, I am monitoring the status of the K-12 teacher workforce and reports of teacher shortages. The COVID-19 pandemic has stretched many schools’ human resources in recent years, with teachers reporting heightened burnout and intentions to leave . Combined with preexisting trends of a weakening teacher pipeline and anemic application pools for certain positions and settings , many worried that we may tip into a full-scale crisis.  

I am pleased to report that recent evidence increasingly points in the direction of the teacher workforce weathering the storm, even if the rains haven’t yet fully subsided. For example, district surveys from the spring of 2022 pointed to expected turnover in the current school year (2022-2023) likely being slightly less taxing than last year (2021-2022). New evidence from Washington State shows even the elevated turnover experienced in 2021-2022 was within the range of historical teacher turnover spanning nearly four decades. Finally, another new study from Illinois points to increased staffing levels, particularly among non-teacher staff, as the primary driver of elevated vacancies in schools, even as student enrollments are falling. These reports and other data points give me confidence that we’ll make it through.  

Don’t celebrate just yet, though. We still have work to do shoring up localized shortages in spots that have persistent hiring problems and doing what we can to make the teaching profession more attractive , especially among people of color .

The first thing I’m looking for in 2023 is a sign that educators, families, and students have responded to COVID-19 by making permanent and systemic improvements in schooling. As I’ve written before , COVID-19 forced everyone into novel practices. Did they develop new habits that are having lasting positive influence, such as using new kinds of devices and software? Or did remote learning create bad habits (e.g., distraction from smart phones) that are making it even more difficult for students to rebound? Anecdotally, I think the answer is “both,” but I hope some enterprising researchers and journalists are looking into this.  

There’s also something I’m not looking for: I don’t expect a noticeable student rebound from COVID-19 learning loss anytime soon. The early evidence doesn’t provide much reason for hope. I think this is because: (a) if educators knew how to get students to catch up from a massive upheaval like this, they would have already been doing this for struggling students before COVID-19; (b) hiring more educators or bringing in new programs with the ESSER funds has proven difficult because of the tight labor market and temporary nature of the funds; and (c) the take-up rate on voluntary, after-school learning activities has been low .   

I’m not exactly optimistic that we’ll “solve” this quickly, but hopefully there’s at least a silver lining in the form of better teaching that will help address the problem gradually, over the long run.

In 2023, my eyes are on the Supreme Court for two consequential higher education decisions. First will be an expedited hearing on the Biden administration’s  proposed student loan forgiveness  program. The administration accepted  26 million applications  for debt relief this fall; however, forgiveness is on hold until the Supreme Court hears oral arguments in February about the legality of the program. For now, the administration has extended the pause on loan repayment. But regardless of the Court’s ruling, restarting payments on remaining balances after a three-year pause will be a significant shift in individuals’ budgets. It is incumbent on the Department of Education to provide borrowers with clear, advance communication about repayment options and resources to avoid default.  

Second, the Court heard arguments in  October   2022  about the consideration of race in college admissions in two separate cases. I anticipate the Court will rule in favor of the plaintiff in both cases, effectively ending the use of affirmative action. This raises the question of how colleges will shift their recruitment and admissions processes to  advance their goals  of a diverse community of scholars. Colleges will need to examine what other admissions practices, such as legacy admissions or the review of test scores, they may need to adjust to achieve their mission.

In 2023, I will be following two issues in K-12 education policy that have important implications for equity.   

First, the Biden administration has signaled that new guidance on how public schools can avoid racial discrimination in school discipline may be forthcoming. Any new guidance is expected to mirror guidelines published in 2014 by the Obama administration (and rescinded by the Trump administration in 2018). The Obama-era guidelines relied on a broader definition of racial discrimination (“disparate impact”) than had been used by prior Republican administrations (“disparate treatment”). This is notable because a “disparate impact” theory of discrimination is better aligned with contemporary understandings of how racial discrimination shapes school outcomes.   

I will also be following how school districts spend their remaining COVID-19 relief aid and the implementation of COVID-19 recovery interventions in schools. Emerging research and journalistic reports indicate that school districts are facing significant challenges implementing evidence-based interventions to support students recovering from the varied harms of the pandemic. Other work suggests that the scale of COVID-19 recovery funding provided to schools may be insufficient to meet the current needs of U.S. schools and students. To ensure that students, families, and educators get the support they need, it is critical that we continue to track how COVID-19 recovery in schools is faring.

In 2023, I’ll be watching what happens with Republicans’ push for “parents’ rights” in schools. Several states have enacted so-called parents’ rights legislation already, with several others—including Texas , Missouri , and Kansas —poised to consider bills (or constitutional amendments) as the new legislative sessions begin. Even the new GOP House majority might pursue a Parents’ Bill of Rights despite decades-long skepticism from Republicans about federal action in K-12 education. With Democrats in control of the Senate and White House, that federal effort won’t go anywhere legislatively, but it could become a model for Republican-led state governments.   

That’s important because the details of these bills matter and have varied quite a bit. (FutureEd has a helpful policy tracker .) Some bills explicitly target teaching about race, gender, and/or sexuality—despite the potential harms to vulnerable students —while others read more like bureaucratic sets of reporting requirements. Some call for major reforms to school choice policies while others sidestep those issues entirely.   

Democrats may have something to say about parent supports, too, with continued interest in cutting childcare costs and reinstating an expanded child tax credit that slashed the child poverty rate . But even if it’s possible, with enough squinting, to see hope for bipartisan legislation , it certainly doesn’t feel like 2023 will be a year for bipartisanship in education.  

kenneth-wong-headshot.png

Results of the local, state, and national elections in 2022 have shifted the landscape of education governance in 2023. Institutional tension is likely to intensify re quir ing extra efforts by elected officials and stakeholders to resolve their policy differences . At the national level, Republican control in the House will likely slow down, and in some cases, reverse President Biden’s education equity agenda. Congressional oversight will intensify over functions of the U.S. Department of Education and in civil rights enforcement conducted by the U.S. Department of Justice. Challenges against the Biden administration’s polic ies will also come from states where Republican governors and state attorneys have received strong electoral support . These state leaders will launch legal challenges and legislative actions to resist Biden’s executive initiatives .  Finally, at the local level, school board elections have become a contested terrain. While Moms for Liberty, a parental rights group, reported victory for about half of their endorsed board candidates, the National Education Association claimed electoral success for about 70% of their endorsed candidates .  A critical issue is whether and how divided governance at all levels will affect schooling opportunity, accountability, and quality for all students in 2023.

2023 education highlights

International Day of Education 2023 dedicated to Afghan girls and women

UNESCO dedicated this year's International Day of Education on 24 January to girls and women in Afghanistan who have been deprived of their right to pursue secondary and higher education. The Organization renewed its call to immediately restore their fundamental right to education. “No country in the world should bar women and girls from receiving an education,” said UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay. “The international community has the responsibility to ensure that the rights of Afghan girls and women are restored without delay. The war against women must stop.” 

UNESCO supporting Afghan girls and women with literacy

In Afghanistan’s Logar province, most girls and women are illiterate. Even before the decision of the de-facto authorities to suspend girls’ access to beyond primary education, most families did not let their girls go to school. Today, over 1,000 women and young girls aged 15 to 45 are learning how to read, write and calculate for the first time in their lives through UNESCO’s Community-based Basic General Literacy Classes. During UNESCO’s visit to two literacy classes , women and girls shared their motivations, challenges and inspirations for attending the classes. Nationwide, the Organization is currently reaching over 40,000 illiterate and semi-literate youth and adults – over 60% of whom are women – in 20 provinces. 

Supporting learners and teachers in Ukraine

UNESCO and Ukraine’s Ministry of Education and Science launched an online training in digital pedagogy for 50,000 teachers, while the education of many Ukrainian students is still disrupted by the war. They are also training 15,000 school psychologists to withstand the impact of the war on the mental health of Ukrainian learners and teachers. “Since February 2022, UNESCO has continuously supported Ukrainian teachers to ensure that students continue learning in the midst of war,” said UNESCO Assistant Director-General for Education Stefania Giannini. “I pay tribute to their work, resilience and continued dedication. As the new academic year has just begun, UNESCO reaffirms its commitment to them. Because education is the cornerstone on which Ukraine's future is built.”   Read more

Monitoring country commitments made at the Transforming Education Summit

The latest UNESCO data shows that the global number of out-of-school children has risen by 6 million since 2021 and now totals 250 million. The figures, compiled by the Global Education Monitoring Report and the UNESCO Institute for Statistics, reveal that education progress continues to stagnate globally. The annual finance gap for helping low and lower-middle income countries achieve their national education targets is almost US $100 billion. UNESCO remains committed to supporting countries and partners to acquire the financing needed to meet their goals. The Organization is also monitoring country commitments made at the UN Transforming Education Summit in 2022 through its new dashboard . Read more

Urgent call for appropriate use of technology in learning and global guidance on generative AI in education

UNESCO’s 2023 Global Education Monitoring Report on technology in education highlights the lack of appropriate governance and regulation. It urges countries to set their own terms for the way technology is designed and used in education so that it never replaces in-person, teacher-led instruction, and supports the shared objective of quality education for all. The report proposes four questions that policy-makers and educational stakeholders should reflect upon as technology is being deployed in education. Read more

Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools have far-reaching implications for education and research. Yet the education sector today is largely unprepared for the ethical and pedagogical integration of these powerful and rapidly evolving technologies, as UNESCO Assistant Director-General Stefania Giannini reiterated in her think piece . UNESCO developed the first-ever global guidance on GenAI in education. Launched during UNESCO’s flagship Digital Learning Week , it calls on countries to quickly implement appropriate regulations, policies, and human capacity development, for ensuring a human-centred vision of GenAI for education and research.

UNESCO calls for an upgrade of teachers’ status to reduce the global shortage

“We must better value, better train and better support,” said UNESCO Director-General Audrey Azoulay on World Teachers’ Day (5 October). UNESCO and the Teacher Task Force’s first global report shows that globally, 44 million teachers are still needed to achieve the goal of providing primary and secondary education for all by 2030. This includes a demand for seven out of ten teachers at the secondary level and a need to replace over half of the existing teachers leaving the profession. The problem is not only one of funding, but also the unattractiveness of the profession. Read more

Exploring how rights should adapt as education evolves

The world has considerably changed since the key treaties on the right to education were conceived and adopted over half a century ago. Education can no longer be only confined to traditional classrooms and textbooks but has expanded to encompass lifelong and life-wide learning. UNESCO's Initiative on the evolving right to education launched its formal dialogue in December to explore how international human rights instruments can be reinforced and further developed to address today's needs and challenges. Read more

Looking into 2024, the  International Day of Education will be celebrated on 24 January under the theme “learning for lasting peace”. The world is seeing a surge of violent conflicts paralleled by an alarming rise of discrimination, racism, xenophobia, and hate speech. An active commitment to peace is more urgent today than ever: Education is central to this endeavor, as underlined by the  UNESCO Recommendation on Education for Peace, Human Rights and Sustainable Development .

National Education Policy 2023 – NEP 2023 Highlights

Introduction to national education policy 2023.

The National Education Policy was established in the year 2020. It came into existence during the academic year of 2023-24, thereby becoming popular as the NEP 2023. The policy is termed as one of the pathbreaking and game-changer documents that have been conceived and formulated with the objective of bringing about a complete transformation in the Indian education system by 2030.

The New National Education Policy 2023 critically envisions a brand-new holistic education system for the country, hinging on the effective adoption of modern training methods, application of technology, and imparting practical and contemporary skills, to shape the overall personality of students. The NEP 2023 aims to help students define and recharge their creative, analytical, problem-solving, and critical thinking abilities, topped by actively pursuing digital literacy.

Overall, the NEP 2023 provides for large-scale reforms in higher education, aiming to bring in more flexibility, shifting the focus from exam-centric to holistic and experiential, clearcut provision of entry/exit options, key synchronization of vocational subjects, and portability of academic credits to enable more mobility.

National Education Policy 2023 - NEP 2023 Highlights

National Education Policy 2023

In summary, NEP 2023 or National Education Policy 2023 outlines the framework for the elementary education system, besides vocational training across the country. The NEP 2023 replaces the National Policy on Education of 1986 and spells out a significant shift in terms of many aspects, affecting certain historical changes. The most important among them is the transition from a 10 + 2  structure to a 5 + 3 + 3 + 4 system.

At the heart of National Education Policy 2023 lies the objective to realize an innovative, student-centric structure that segments student education into four stages: Foundational, Preparatory, Middle, and Secondary. The stages are considered crucial and in a natural order where students progress from one stage to another mentally, shaping and broadening the thought process in a holistic manner.

The NEP 2023 incorporates numerous shifts and changes in the education policy. It also provides for an increase in education expenditure from 3% to 6% of the GDP on a priority basis.

New National Education Policy 2023 Focus   

The new education policy focuses on transforming the Indian education system by providing equitable and quality education to all children aged 3-18 years.

NEP 2023 Goals

The goals are to develop creativity, critical thinking, problem-solving, communication skills, and vocational skills, and promote lifelong learning.

New Education Policy 2023 Key Skills

Key skills to focus on include creativity, critical thinking, communication, collaboration, and problem-solving.

Let us list down the key areas where significant changes and shifts have been recommended in National Education Policy 2023:

NEP 2023 – Literacy Goal

To achieve 100% youth and adult literacy by 2030.

Fundamental Structural Change with NEP 2023

National Education Policy 2023 calls for replacing the 10 + 2 structure with a 5+3+3+4 model, recommended to attain foundational literacy and numeracy among students by Grade 3.

NEP 2023 Highlights

The policy states, “The highest priority of the education system will be to achieve universal foundational literacy and numeracy in primary school by 2025. The rest of this Policy will become relevant for our students only if this most basic learning requirement (i.e., reading, writing, and arithmetic at the foundational level) is first achieved. To this end, a National Mission on Foundational Literacy and Numeracy will be set up by the Ministry of Education on priority. Accordingly, all State/UT governments will immediately prepare an implementation plan for attaining universal foundational literacy and numeracy in all primary schools, identifying stage-wise targets and goals to be achieved by 2025, and closely tracking and monitoring the progress of the same”. Subsequently, the NIPUN Bharat Mission (National Initiative for Proficiency in Reading with Understanding and Numeracy) was launched on 5 July 2021 to achieve this goal.

The transition of the model, as per National Education Policy 2023, will be implemented by reclassifying the education stages as the following:

  • Foundational Stage: The fundamental stage of laying the foundation that is further stratified into two substages: 3 years of preschool or Anganwadi, followed by classes 1 and 2 in primary school. This essentially covers children between 3 and 8 years. The focus will be on activity-based learning.
  • Preparatory Stage: Covering students of class 3-5, and in the age bracket, 8–10 years. Students will be steadily exposed to the fundamental learning aspects of speaking, reading, writing, physical education, art, science, languages, and mathematics.
  • Middle Stage: This stage covers students of classes 6 to 8, in the age group of 11 and 13 years. It will introduce students to more abstract concepts in mathematics, sciences, social sciences, arts, and humanities.
  • Secondary Stage: Classes 9 to 12, covering the ages of 14–18 years. It is subclassified into two parts: classes 9 and 10, covering the first phase, while classes 11 and 12, covering the second phase. These 4 years of study is intended to inculcate multidisciplinary learning, driven by depth and critical thinking. This provides for multiple options of subjects.

NEP 2023 Examination Structure

The examinations will not be conducted every year but will be held as three milestones, at the end of the classes, 2, 5 & 8.

Revamped examination structure: Students will now actively participate in exams in grades 2, 5, and 8. This reduces the burden and periodicity of assessments that constantly keep children under pressure, with exam-mode preparation overpowering holistic learning. Board exams for grades 10 and 12 will change significantly, where biannual mode will be embraced and objective-descriptive formats will take center stage.

The New Education Policy 2023 thus aims to reduce the curriculum burden on students and will be more ‘inter-disciplinary and multi-lingual’. The reforms begin with the model of examinations.

Mother tongue promotion

The cornerstone of the New Education Policy 2023 is the importance accorded to education in one’s mother tongue. Up to class 5, the medium of instruction will be the mother tongue, with a scope to extend it to grade 8 in the future. In the thick of a national debate where governments are seen fervently promoting English as the medium of instruction from even the primary school level, this prescription reveals the crucial side of education built on the linguistic foundation.

The provision is meant to enhance students’ comprehension and enable the flow of more effective communication with teachers, building stronger bonds, and staying well-connected to one’s cultural roots and background. Through this encouragement, the NEP 2023 intends to enhance language proficiency and clear the cultural chasms encountered by this generation of students.

Interdisciplinary Curriculum

The NEP 2023 encourages interdisciplinary and multilingual education, fostering the promotion of a flexible curriculum that nurtures diverse skills and encourages seamless attainment of knowledge. Transformation is the Mantra that drives the New Education Policy 2023.

Coding and Experimental Learning

Changing according to times, coding will become an integral part of the curriculum in 6th grade, and by integrating experimental learning methods, there will be increased focus on practical and experiential understanding.

Health Focus

The National Education Policy 2023 extends the mid-day meal scheme to include breakfast, with the addition of counselors and social workers to prioritize students’ health and mental well-being.

Higher Education Reforms

Multidisciplinary Bachelor’s Degrees: A flexible 4-year undergraduate program with multiple exit points (certificate, diploma, bachelor’s) that help students gain proficiency in a particular skill set, completely.

  • Goodbye to M.Phil.: The New Education Policy 2023 discontinues M.Phil. courses.
  • Higher Education Commission: Under NEP 2023, a Higher Education Commission of India will operate to regulate and manage higher education that works proactively on enrollment ratios and ensure higher academic standards.
  • Regulatory Councils: As per National Education Policy 2023, a National Higher Education Regulatory Council will oversee higher education (this excludes medical and legal education). Also, a Higher Education Grant Council will financially aid universities and colleges, thus effectively replacing existing bodies.
  • Internationalization: The policy fosters international collaboration by allowing foreign universities and institutes to set up campuses and centers in India. This is aimed at maximizing international exposure for students.
  • Fee Regulation: Both private and public universities will ensure regulated fees, to realize equitable access to quality education
  • College Affiliation: Will be phased out in 15 years, lending autonomous status to the colleges
  • District-level Universities: At least one high-quality multidisciplinary institute of excellence will be established in every district of the country by 2030, providing broader access to education
  • Multidisciplinary Universities: All universities will graduate into major multidisciplinary institutions by 2040, becoming destinations for holistic education.

NEP 2023 Teachers Policy Alterations

The NEP 2020 has listed certain significant policy alterations with respect to teachers and teacher education. Eligibility criteria have been clearly laid down to become a teacher. This includes a 4-year Bachelor of Education as the minimum requirement needed by 2030. Under the New National Education Policy 2023, the process of recruiting teachers is being strengthened and more transparency and equity is being brought into the system. The onus will be on the National Council for Teacher Education to formulate a National Curriculum Framework for Teacher Education by 2021 and a National Professional Standards for Teachers by 2022.

New National Education Policy 2023 – How is it different from National Education Policy 1986

A significant departure is visible in many areas of the New National Education Policy 2023, in comparison with the older one. Let us broadly analyze some of the key differences between National Education Policy 2023 and National Education Policy 1986:

Holistic approach with a broader focus

In the New National Education Policy 2023, a strong emphasis has been laid on multiple dimensions that positively influence the overall growth of the student, mind development, and career clarity. This is seen in initiatives such as technology usage, experiential mode, and exit and entry options. Whereas, in the older National Education Policy 1986, the focus was on clearing exams, and gaining merits and degrees, since improving national literacy was the major challenge in those days.

Stress on language

The latest NEP 2023 displays unconditional veneration for Indian languages and identifies the cruciality of teaching in the mother tongue. The older policy did not touch down on this. Historic negligence of Indian languages seems to be aptly fixed in National Education Policy 2023, a much-needed attention that was grossly missing in the older education policies.

New Education Structure

With the latest 5 + 3 + 3 + 4 system, the National Education Policy 2023 calls for a paradigm shift that is set to turn into an epochal development. In the older policy, there was little attention or attempt to address the education structure reforms.

Multidisciplinary approach

Choosing a stream of choice with a career and passion in mind is always a challenge for the child. The choking that every child had to go through due to the terms of the older policy has been fixed in the New National Education Policy 2023. NEP 2023 clearly paves the way for a multidisciplinary approach that enables students to opt for subjects across streams, thus encouraging cross-disciplinary learning.

Education from early stages

The National Education Policy 2023 clearly attaches importance to education from early childhood. The older policy did not focus on this aspect.

As the latest NEP 2023 is unveiled and put into action, the world is already witnessing rapid progress and development on the technological front. The advent and intervention of technology have completely changed the way we live. The education sector is not immune to this. The NEP 2023 attempts to raise the bar in this direction and makes ample provisions to encourage and proliferate technological interventions in the education system. In the old policy of 1986, this was obviously missing.

Vocational education

The National Education Policy 2023 invites the incorporation of vocational education in mainstream education with appropriate synchronization that only complements conventional education rather than competing or cannibalizing it. With stress on fostering skill development and boosting entrepreneurship, the NEP 2023 constituents are on the job in the right way. The older policy only resulted in building degree factories where institutions were more into propagating the importance of mainstream subjects with an examination perspective. In the NEP 2023, there is a clear importance given to honing the skills and competencies of the children from a young age, thereby preparing them for their careers.

Experiential Learning

The National Education Policy 2023 is for experiential learning, encouraging learning while observing experiencing, and handling real-world applications. The older policy was hinging on rote learning and memorization.

Changes in Assessment Methods

The National Education Policy 2023 without any ambiguity calls for changes in the way assessment is carried out. This includes the adoption of continuous and complete evaluation, while the older policy of 1986 focused on examinations as the real and final benchmark of a student’s performance. NEP 2023 also proposes setting up of a new National Assessment Centre for evaluating learning outcomes.

Final Notes

This is all about the National Education Policy 2023, hope this article clears all the information about the NEP 2023 along with the difference between NEP 2023 with the previous education policies.

Education Redefined: A Guide to the New Education Policy 2023 in India

June 13, 2023.

NEP2023 is a paradigm shift in the Indian education landscape. The New National Education Policy, implemented in 2023, marks a significant milestone in India’s education system. After following the same norms for 34 years, the Ministry of Education (formerly known as MHRD) introduced significant changes on July 29, 2020. With the adoption of the New National Education Policy in 2023, educators and students may naturally wonder what it truly entails.

In this blog, we aim to provide answers by examining the major features of the policy and delving into the NEP’s V+III+III+IV structure.

So without further ado, let’s begin.

National Education Policy (NEP) – An Overview

Organized by the Ministry of Education, India, NEP was launched on 29th July 2020. With the motto “Educate, Encourage and Enlighten” , it is bringing new amendments to modernize and improve the existing education system of India. It aims to accomplish 100% youth and adult literacy with four powerful pillars – Access, Equity, Quality, and Accountability .

The Main Goals of National Education Policy 2023

The primary objective of the National Education Policy is to elevate the standard of education in India to an international level, positioning the country as a leader in knowledge-based sectors. This is achieved through the policy’s focus on universalizing education.

Key Tenets of the New Education Policy:

  • Unlocking the true potential of each learner
  • Enhancing reading and numeracy skills
  • Providing flexible learning opportunities
  • Investing in public education
  • Enhancing the quality of education
  • Empowering learners by promoting research and good governance
  • Ensuring transparency in education policy
  • Emphasizing the use of digital assessment platforms
  • Integrating digital tools and blended learning pedagogies
  • Promoting multilingual education
  • Enhancing creativity and logical thinking skills

Now what are the major reforms brought by the NEP 2023? Let’s find out.

Transformative Reforms in the New Education Policy 2023

  • Integration of disciplines: No distinct divisions between arts, sciences, academic, vocational, curricular, and extracurricular subjects.
  • Focus on foundational skills: Prioritizing foundational reading and numeracy skills.
  • Language flexibility: No imposition of any state language on students studying in different states.
  • Board Examinations: Allowing students to take board exams twice.
  • Increased education investment: Increasing the government’s expenditure on education from 1.7% to 6% of the country’s GDP.
  • Gender inclusion fund: Establishing a dedicated fund for promoting gender inclusion in education.
  • Special attention to gifted children: Ensuring suitable education for gifted students.
  • Four-year undergraduate courses: Extending the duration of undergraduate programs to four years.
  • B.Ed Course requirement: Requiring a four-year integrated B.Ed course for teacher positions.
  • Common Admission Examination: Implementing a common entrance examination for admission to Higher Education Institutions (HEIs).
  • Phasing out the M.Phil program: Gradual elimination of the Master of Philosophy program from the education system.

  • Inclusion of Indian literature: Making Indian literature and classical languages part of the educational curriculum.
  • Reduced exams: Conduct exams only in classes 2nd, 5th, and 8th instead of every academic year.

What is the New V+III+III+IV Education Structure?

NEP 2023 introduces a significant change in the education system by replacing the long-standing X+II structure with the innovative V+III+III+IV structure.

Under the new Pedagogical and Circular Structure, the government has divided students’ schooling into four distinct stages: Secondary, Middle, Preparatory, and Foundational. Each of these stages plays a crucial role in the educational development of students throughout their school years. Here is a breakdown of how these four stages will be organized within the schooling system:

these four stages will be organized within the schooling system

  • Foundational stage (5): This initial stage will focus on nurturing young minds from ages 3 to 8, emphasizing a play-based and activity-oriented approach to education in pre-school and 1st-2nd grade.
  • Preparatory stage (3): From ages 8 to 11, this stage aims to build a strong foundation in various subjects and foster critical thinking skills in 3rd-5th grade.
  • Middle stage (3): Spanning ages 11 to 14, this stage aims to provide a comprehensive education that includes a wide range of subjects and encourages experiential learning in 6th-8th grade.
  • Secondary stage (4): From ages 14 to 18, this stage will focus on subject specialization and preparation for higher education or vocational training in 9th-12th grade.

This revamped structure aims to provide a more holistic and well-rounded education, catering to the different developmental needs of students at various stages.

Importance of the V+III+III+IV Structure in NEP 2023

The implementation of the V+III+III+IV structure in the new education policy holds significant value as it prioritizes the cognitive development stage of students.

This revised structure provides a more detailed framework for the various stages of students’ schooling, ensuring their overall growth and progress. Unlike the previous X+II structure, the V+III+III+IV model strengthens the educational foundation of students from the foundational stage all the way to the secondary stage.

The new structure also facilitates the effective utilization of the Right to Education , as it now encompasses ages 3 to 18 instead of the previous 6 to 14 age range. Consequently, students will receive support right from the beginning of their educational journey.

Moreover, the introduction of the V+III+III+IV structure is expected to significantly improve student retention rates. With this new structure in place, more students are likely to remain in the same school throughout their academic journey.

Ultimately, a higher literacy rate resulting from the implementation of this structure will contribute to the overall advancement of our country’s future.

Furthermore, NEP 2023 emphasizes the significance of integrating digital tools and platforms into the education system. Let’s dive in.

Digital Inclusions in the National Education Policy 2023

In line with technological advancements, digital teaching methods have emerged as an integral part of modern education. Let’s explore the government’s digital initiatives outlined in the NEP 2023 to enhance the quality of education:

  • The government will establish the National Educational Technology Forum (NETF) to promote and enhance the implementation of digital teaching methods in schools. This forum will serve as a platform for sharing innovative ideas and strategies related to digital education across different educational institutions.
  • To further bolster digital education resources , a new unit will be introduced that will operate nationwide. This unit will focus on developing and curating digital learning materials, tools, and resources to support teachers and students in their educational journey.
  • Furthermore, NEP 2023 emphasizes the integration of technology in classrooms to streamline and enhance various educational processes. This integration aims to leverage technology for instructional delivery, assessment methods, and overall classroom management, providing students with a more engaging and interactive learning environment.

Through these digital inclusions, the government aims to leverage technology to improve the overall quality of education and ensure students have access to diverse digital resources and innovative teaching methodologies.

Now that we’ve discussed the significance of digital education in NEP 2023, let’s explore how it can be implemented.

  • Essay on New Education Policy (NEP)

Education helps us discover and accomplish our aims and make a fair contribution to the society. In a similar vein, education contributes significantly to a country's national growth. The National Education Policy 2020 was authorised by the Government of India since there is a significant change taking place in the world. Here are some sample essays on New Education Policy 2023.

100 Words Essay on New Education Policy

200 words essay on new education policy, 500 words essay on new education policy 2023.

Essay on New Education Policy (NEP)

The goal of the New Education Policy is to make education available to everyone from preschool through high school. With a 100% GRE (Gross Enrollment Ratio) in academics, it intends to achieve that. It is intended to be accomplished by 2030. A four-year, interdisciplinary undergraduate curriculum with a range of exit choices is what it intends to introduce. As a result, this new strategy aims to transform India into a superpower in the field of knowledge.

In similar terms, it seeks to make all colleges and universities multidisciplinary by the year 2040. The initiative also intends to fundamentally alter the current educational system while increasing the availability of jobs in India.

The New National Education Policy has had a really revolutionary impact on the Indian educational system. After 34 years of our education policy following the same standards without change, the Ministry of Education (formerly known as MHRD) made some significant changes to it on July 29, 2020. The Indian government just adopted this New National Education Policy for 2023.

How It Will Affect Learning Outcomes

It's no secret that the new education policy is going to affect students in a big way. But what exactly does that mean for them?

Well, for one, the new policy is going to impact learning outcomes. Students will no longer be able to coast through school by memorising facts and figures. Instead, they'll be required to apply what they learn in a hands-on way, in order to demonstrate their understanding of the material. This is a big change, and it'll take some time for students and educators to adjust. But in the long run, it's going to result in better-educated students who are prepared for the challenges of the real world.

The new education policy also includes a number of changes that will impact educators directly. For example, the policy stipulates that all educators must have a bachelor's degree in order to teach in public schools. Additionally, educators will be required to complete professional development courses on a regular basis.

When the new education policy is implemented, there will be some big changes for the teaching community.

Change for Teachers and Educators

First and foremost, the policy shifts the focus from teacher-centred instruction to student-centred instruction. This means that the teacher's role will change from delivering information to facilitating learning.

In order to facilitate learning, teachers will need to develop new skills. They will need to be able to create a safe and welcoming environment where all students feel comfortable participating, and they will need to be able to adapt their lessons to meet the needs of each individual student.

Benefits for Students Under New National Education Policy 2023

The new education policy is, in essence, a shift from memorization to learning. The main focus of the policy is to provide a holistic education that focuses on the development of the student's mind and body. Here are some of the ways this could benefit students:

More opportunity for students to pursue their interests outside of school - whether that be an extracurricular activity such as art or music, or receiving extra tutoring to help them excel in academics. A wider range of learning options that can provide students with tailored instruction and help them develop their individual skills.

More emphasis placed on experiential learning, where students are encouraged to apply what they've learned in school through projects and real-world activities. Increased access to technology including an increased use of digital classrooms and online resources such as eBooks, which can make studying more efficient and convenient.

These changes will make the education system more dynamic and create an environment where students can better prepare themselves for their future endeavours.

What Parents Need to Know About the New Education Policy

The new education policy is going to bring about a lot of change, and it's important for parents to be aware of how it will affect their children. First and foremost, the new policy puts more emphasis on technology and digital learning resources, so it's important for parents to ensure that their children have access to a reliable internet connection. Parents should also look into resources like online tutoring or additional support services that may be available to help their child stay on top of their studies.

It's also important for parents to be mindful of the potential stress and anxiety that students may experience while adjusting to the new system. Parents should make sure they provide emotional and moral support as needed, check in with their kids regularly, and encourage them to take breaks when needed

Finally, it's important for parents to educate themselves on the new policy so they can better understand what changes are taking place and how they can best support their children through the transition period. Changes in education policy can be difficult to navigate and often cause a lot of uncertainty. However, with the right preparation and support, you can make the most of the new policy and continue to achieve your academic goals.

  • The PARAKH (Performance Assessment, Review, and Analysis of Knowledge for Holistic Development) organisation will define the standards for Board Examinations. The government will make Indian literature and other classical languages part of the educational curriculum.
  • Instead of every academic year, students’ exams will be held only in classes 2nd, 5th, and 8th.

The 5+3+3+4 Structure: What Does it Mean?

The replacement of the 10+2 structure with the 5+3+3+4 structure is the most eye-catching alteration in the NEP 2023. For a long period, the 10+2 has been used in our educational system. As a result, a total shift in that structure may be bewildering for the children. We will try to explain the meaning of the 5+3+3+4 structure and how it differs from the old 10+2 structure below.

The administration has divided student education into four segments under the new Pedagogical and Circular Structure. Secondary, Middle, Preparatory, and Foundational are the four sections. These four stages of schooling will be critical components of students’ educational development throughout their school careers. The following is how these four stages of student education will be divided.

  • The Foundation Stage is the first step of education for children. Students will be groomed for 5 years in this programme. These five years will include three years of Anganwadi/Pre-Primary/Balvatika, as well as first and second grade.
  • The preparing stage will be the second stage. This stage of education will also span three years. The third, fourth, and fifth grades will lay the groundwork for the intermediate and secondary phases.
  • The third stage of education will be middle school. This is for students in grades 6th through 8th. These three years will prepare pupils for the ultimate part of their education, secondary school.
  • The secondary stage will be the final part of students’ schooling lives; instead of two years, students will have four years from Class 9th to Class 12th to complete their secondary education.

By the 5+3+3+4 structure, the government hopes to place a greater emphasis on pupils’ cognitive growth. The government will flesh out the schooling phases of kids through this system for their advantage. In contrast to the 10+2 framework, the 5+3+3+4 structure will enhance students’ foundations from the foundational to secondary stages. This new framework will also assist students in fully exercising their right to an education. Because the structure caters to children aged 3 to 18 rather than 6 to 14. As a result, the pupils will be helped from the start of their school life.

Aside from that, this structure will be useful in significantly enhancing student retention rates. With the implementation of this framework, more students will remain at their respective institutions throughout their academic careers. In short, this new framework will benefit students in every way imaginable. Furthermore, a higher literacy rate under this system will only benefit our country’s future.

Digital techniques of teaching have recently been a component of schooling due to technological advancements. Let us have a look at the digital techniques that the government will adopt to improve education through NEP 2023.

  • The government will create a NETF (National Educational Technology Forum). This conference will aim to improve digital teaching methods in various schools by presenting new and innovative ideas.
  • The government will establish a new organisation that will work across the country to offer more resources for digital education.
  • There will be technology integration to improve the many operations in the classroom.

Let us take a look at all of the states that have implemented NEP since its inception.

  • In 2021, Karnataka became the first state to issue an order pertaining to the implementation of NEP 2022.
  • Madhya Pradesh later agreed to establish a New National Education Policy on August 26, 2021.
  • Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath has stated that the NEP will be implemented in stages throughout the state.
  • The state of Goa plans to introduce the NEP in 2023.
  • States including as Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Rajasthan, and Assam are also working to adopt the New NEP.

Effect of New Education Policy 2023

Here are the effects of the new education policy 2023 on different concerned categories:

The NEP will have an impact not only on pupils, but also on teachers and educational techniques. According to NEP 2023, a B. Ed degree is required to work as a teacher in a school. The eye-catching aspect of this is that this B.Ed course must be a 4-year integrated course. Because of this strategy, only qualified teachers will be hired for schools, which will undoubtedly aid in shaping pupils’ futures.

The NEP 2023 will also have an impact on students pursuing UG and Higher Education. According to the policy, a UG degree would last four years and will be multi-disciplinary, holistic, and flexible. Furthermore, students will be given many opportunities to withdraw from the degree programme. For example, students will receive a certificate upon completion of a one-year vocational or professional field course. They will receive a diploma after two years and a Bachelor’s degree after three years.

The duration of PG courses shall be limited to one to two years. Moreover, the Master of Philosophy programmes will no longer be available. The most ambitious decision in this programme for college-level education is the phase-out of the college affiliation system over the next 15 years. Furthermore, a new authority will be established to oversee all higher education courses, with the exception of legal and medical courses.

One of the most significant changes in the NEP is that pupils will be able to study in their mother tongue or regional language until the fifth grade. Furthermore, the administration has stated that this ceiling can be raised to the eighth grade. Students will understand what professors are teaching them better if they study in their native tongue. This policy will also help pupils learn more about their native language.

A primary objective of the policy was to bridge the gap between formal and informal education, addressing the lack of focus on vocational skills and the prioritisation of traditional subjects. A comprehensive and effective education system was intended to address these issues.

Thus, a new education policy came into existence, which focused on creative development and interest-based learning curricula. 

Also Check: Importance of Adult Education

There are several changes in the new education policy that has been implemented in the Indian education system. Candidates can go through the changes stated below. 

1. Children can Start Schooling Early

 The new system will consist of 12 years of formal education and three years of Anganwadi/pre-school education. The 10+2 school curriculum framework will be replaced with a 5+3+3+4 curricular structure, emphasising Early Childhood Care and Education (ECCE). Previously, children received three years of unofficial schooling called pre-schooling in the education system.

2. Mother Tongue is the Medium of Instruction

The New Educational Policy (NEP) emphasises native language learning as the primary teaching medium but doesn't promote compulsory language learning. The policy suggests using the mother tongue as an instruction medium rather than being mandatory. 

The home language, mother tongue, local language, or regional language will be used until Grade 5 or Grade 8 and beyond, after which the home or local language will be taught as a language. The mother tongue as the primary medium of instruction for students was not mandatory previously. 

3. No UGC, AICTE, NCTE Boards

The Higher Education Commission of India (HECI) is established as a single umbrella body for all higher education in India, excluding medical and legal education. Regulation, accreditation, and academic standards will all be controlled by the same rules for public and private higher education institutions.

The government will phase down college affiliation in 15 years and establish a stage-by-stage procedure for giving colleges graded autonomy.

4. No More Science, Arts, and Commerce Streams

The new education policy aims at no formal distinctions between arts and sciences, curricular and extracurricular activities, or vocational and academic programs. Candidates can select from a variety of disciplines throughout various streams. Students will get internships and vocational training in sixth grade. 

5. FYUP Programme Returns & No Dropouts Scheme

Under the New Educational Policy, undergraduate degrees will last three or four years, with several certificate exits or diplomas available. Colleges must award certificates, diplomas, or bachelor's degrees after one year of study in a topic or field, including vocational and professional fields.

Academic credits earned at different HEIs will also be stored digitally in an Academic Bank of Credit so they can be transferred and counted toward a degree.This policy implements necessary adjustments, eliminating a uniform system and promoting transparency.

It establishes a single national agency to oversee the entire education system, ensuring common access at all school-level education. New Education Policy aims to provide universal access to school education, ensuring holistic student development.

It tracks progress and learning capacity, allowing students to access formal and informal teaching methods. The policy also mandates vocational education courses from preschool to 12th standard, emphasising the inclusion of trained counsellors and social workers in the schooling system. This policy extends beyond knowledge and skills.

6. Attaining Foundational Literacy and Numeracy Early

The New Educational Policy (NEP) has directed states to implement FLN in primary school curriculums by 2025. The policy focuses on experiential learning, equipping students with 21st-century skills and reducing course content. Vocational education will be available in 6th-8th grade, along with internship opportunities. 

The New Educational Policy also targets to increase the graduate enrollment ratio, aiming for 50% by 2035 from 26.3%, respectively. It is in response to a recent decrease in students opting for higher education. 

The New Educational Policy also aims to reduce student dropout rates by offering multiple exit options in higher education. Overall, Foundational Literacy and Numeracy are vital prerequisites for holistic student development.

9. Indian Education Internationalisation 

New Educational Policy aims to promote the internationalisation of Indian education. It seeks to encourage global collaborations between institutions and universities. It has introduced faculty exchange programs, and supports top world universities to open campuses in India.

10. Education as a Profitable Investment

Challenges Regarding New Educational Policy

The New Educational Policy has brought revolutionary change in the Indian Education System in the time period. Yet, there are certain limitations in the New Educational Policy. Candidates can go through the challenges in the New Educational Policy stated below.

  • High Enrollment Targets: Building a new curriculum is challenging for most instructors because the New Educational Policy aims to double the gross enrollment ratio by 2035.
  • Lack of Qualified Teachers: India needs a sizable pool of qualified teachers familiar with the new pedagogical approach to effectively incline children with the upgraded curriculum.
  • Lack of Financial Sources: Adequate funding and resources are needed to implement the New Educational Policy properly. Not all institutions can gather proper financing for implementing the New Educational Policy.
  • Lack of Adaptive Mindset among Educators: As teachers generally share a disciplinary anchoring culture, it is challenging to have educators with exceptional skills. The New Educational Policy challenges institutions to hire multi-tasking and diverse-minded educators for holistic student development.

Previously, the exams were six months and yearly. But now they will be held as three milestones, at the end of the class 2nd, 5th and 8th. Candidates can go through the New Educational Policy exam structure stated below. 

1. Revamped Examination Structure

An updated educational framework, the 5+3+3+4 structure, presents a transformation and adaptation of the traditional learning system based on the needs of learners. It emphasizes foundational learning, middle schooling, secondary education, and high school stages. It aims to develop a holistic pedagogical atmosphere. 

It will ease the burden and periodicity of assessments that keep children under pressure. The New Education Policy 2024 aims to reduce students' curriculum burden and promote inter-disciplinary and multilingual learning through significant changes to board exams, focusing on objective-descriptive formats and biannual mode.

2. Importance of Mother Tongue

The New Education Policy 2023 emphasises the importance of education in one's mother tongue, with the medium of instruction up to class 5 and potentially extended to class 8 in some schools. 

This move reflects the linguistic foundation of education and aims to enhance students' comprehension, communication with teachers, and cultural connections. The policy aims to improve language proficiency and bridge cultural gaps despite the national debate on English as the primary medium of instruction.

3. Interdisciplinary Curriculum

New Educational Policy encourages interdisciplinary and multilingual education. It aims to foster a flexible curriculum that nurtures diverse skills and promotes the seamless achievement of knowledge. 

4. Coding and Experimental Education

In 6th grade, coding will become a crucial curriculum element. It will focus on practical and experiential understanding by integrating experiential learning methods. Thus, students will be more practical and exploratory rather than too inclined toward theoretical learning. 

5. Focus on Students' Health 

The New Educational Policy 2023 expands the mid-day meal scheme to include breakfast. It will incorporate counsellors and social workers to enhance students' health and mental well-being.

Updated Biden administration rules will soon affect students across US: What to know

article on new education policy 2023 in english

Students and school employees across America will be impacted in the fall by new changes to a rule that affects all federally-funded schools.

Practically, it's a sweeping update to how schools will have to handle sex discrimination and abuse cases. Politically, it's a part of a power struggle between the Trump and Biden administrations.

What's new? The Biden administration released a new set of rules this week overhauling the Trump administration's Title IX rules – which gave more rights to alleged perpetrators of sexual assault and harassment. The new rules also stipulate further protections for LGBTQ+ students as well as parenting and pregnant students.

What is Title IX? Title IX is a civil rights law that bans sex discrimination against students, employees and others at public schools, colleges and universities that receive federal funding.

What were some of the old rules? For cases of sexual assault, they stipulated that schools only had to investigate claims that met a certain threshold of sex discrimination and were made through a formal reporting process. It also raised the bar of proof for sexual misconduct on college campuses. They prohibited investigations of cases that occurred off campus.

Why does the change matter? Critics argued the Trump-era rules prevented people accused of sexual harassment, assault or discrimination from facing repercussions. Supporters contended the rules rightly strengthened due-process protections for accused students or faculty members.

Biden's new Title IX rules will affect people on the nation's school campuses starting in August.

What happened this week?

The Biden administration's new set of guidance overhauls Trump-era rules that in part narrowed which and how schools could investigate sex discrimination cases. President Joe Biden in his 2020 presidential campaign vowed to overturn the changes made under Education Secretary Betsy DeVos.

The new rules expand the definition of sexual assault and harassment. That means schools could investigate more cases of discrimination, abuse or harassment filed by people on school campuses under the scope of the law.

College student survivors will no longer be required to attend live hearings or go through cross examinations. And people will be given the right to "prompt and equitable grievance procedures," the rule reads.

LGBTQ+ students will be guaranteed protection under the law if they are discriminated against for their gender identity or sexual orientation.

Pregnant and parenting students who might receive unwanted sexual attention, shame or punishment at schools will also be granted more protections from sex discrimination in the admissions process and on campus.

“These final regulations build on the legacy of Title IX by clarifying that all our nation’s students can access schools that are safe, welcoming, and respect their rights," said U.S. Secretary of Education Miguel Cardona.

Who is impacted by the changes to Title IX?

The rule changes have a wide range of effects on students, among the most notable examples:

  • Sexual assault survivors : The new rules will have sweeping effects on survivors of sexual misconduct and those accused of crimes. Among the changes: The definition of sexual assault will be expanded in K-12 schools and colleges.
  • LGBTQ+ students : Biden's Title IX update stipulates protections from sex discrimination based gender identity for the first time.
  • Pregnant and parenting students : The new regulations extend the definition of "sex-based harassment" to include pregnant people on campuses.

Ruling on transgender student participation in sports remains unsettled

The Biden administration did not rule on whether transgender and nonbinary students can participate on the sports teams that align with their gender.

The administration released a proposed rule in April 2023 that said schools and colleges largely could not ban nonbinary and transgender students from sports teams in the new Title IX rules.

Biden Administration Releases Revised Title IX Rules

The new regulations extended legal protections to L.G.B.T.Q. students and rolled back several policies set under the Trump administration.

Reporting from Washington

The Biden administration issued new rules on Friday cementing protections for L.G.B.T.Q. students under federal law and reversing a number of Trump-era policies that dictated how schools should respond to cases of alleged sexual misconduct in K-12 schools and college campuses.

The new rules, which take effect on Aug. 1, effectively broadened the scope of Title IX, the 1972 law prohibiting sex discrimination in educational programs that receive federal funding. They extend the law’s reach to prohibit discrimination and harassment based on sexual orientation and gender identity, and widen the range of sexual harassment complaints that schools will be responsible for investigating.

“These regulations make it crystal clear that everyone can access schools that are safe, welcoming and that respect their rights,” Miguel A. Cardona, the education secretary, said in a call with reporters.

The rules deliver on a key campaign promise for Mr. Biden, who declared he would put a “quick end” to the Trump-era Title IX rules and faced mounting pressure from Democrats and civil rights leaders to do so.

The release of the updated rules, after two delays, came as Mr. Biden is in the thick of his re-election bid and is trying to galvanize key electoral constituencies.

Through the new regulations, the administration moved to include students in its interpretation of Bostock v. Clayton County, the landmark 2020 Supreme Court case in which the court ruled that the Civil Rights Act of 1964 protects gay and transgender workers from workplace discrimination. The Trump administration held that transgender students were not protected under federal laws, including after the Bostock ruling .

In a statement, Betsy DeVos, who served as Mr. Trump’s education secretary, criticized what she called a “radical rewrite” of the law, asserting that it was an “endeavor born entirely of progressive politics, not sound policy.”

Ms. DeVos said the inclusion of transgender students in the law gutted decades of protections and opportunities for women. She added that the Biden administration also “seeks to U-turn to the bad old days where sexual misconduct was sent to campus kangaroo courts, not resolved in a way that actually sought justice.”

While the regulations released on Friday contained considerably stronger protections for L.G.B.T.Q. students, the administration steered clear of the lightning-rod issue of whether transgender students should be able to play on school sports teams corresponding to their gender identity.

The administration stressed that while, writ large, exclusion based on gender identity violated Title IX, the new regulations did not extend to single-sex living facilities or sports teams. The Education Department is pursuing a second rule dealing with sex-related eligibility for male and female sports teams. The rule-making process has drawn more than 150,000 comments.

Under the revisions announced on Friday, instances where transgender students are subjected to a “hostile environment” through bullying or harassment, or face unequal treatment and exclusion in programs or facilities based on their gender identity, could trigger an investigation by the department’s Office for Civil Rights.

Instances where students are repeatedly referred to by a name or pronoun other than one they have chosen could also be considered harassment on a case-by-case basis.

“This is a bold and important statement that transgender and nonbinary students belong, in their schools and in their communities,” said Olivia Hunt, the policy director for the National Center for Transgender Equality.

The regulations appeared certain to draw to legal challenges from conservative groups.

May Mailman, the director of the Independent Women’s Law Center, said in a statement that the group planned to sue the administration. She said it was clear that the statute barring discrimination on the basis of “sex” means “binary and biological.”

“The unlawful omnibus regulation reimagines Title IX to permit the invasion of women’s spaces and the reduction of women’s rights in the name of elevating protections for ‘gender identity,’ which is contrary to the text and purpose of Title IX,” she said.

The existing rules, which took effect under Mr. Trump in 2020, were the first time that sexual assault provisions were codified under Title IX. They bolstered due process rights of accused students, relieved schools of some legal liabilities and laid out rigid parameters for how schools should conduct impartial investigations.

They were a sharp departure from the Obama administration’s interpretation of the law, which came in the form of unenforceable guidance documents directing schools to ramp up investigations into sexual assault complaints under the threat of losing federal funding. Scores of students who had been accused of sexual assault went on to win court cases against their colleges for violating their due process rights under the guidelines.

The Biden administration’s rules struck a balance between the Obama and Trump administration’s goals. Taken together, the regulation largely provides more flexibility for how schools conduct investigations, which advocates and schools have long lobbied for.

Catherine E. Lhamon, the head of the department’s Office for Civil Rights who also held the job under President Barack Obama, called the new rules the “most comprehensive coverage under Title IX since the regulations were first promulgated in 1975.”

They replaced a narrower definition of sex-based harassment adopted under the Trump administration with one that would include a wider range of conduct. And they reversed a requirement that schools investigate only incidents alleged to have occurred on their campuses or in their programs.

Still, some key provisions in the Trump-era rules were preserved, including one allowing informal resolutions and another prohibiting penalties against students until after an investigation.

Among the most anticipated changes was the undoing of a provision that required in-person, or so-called live hearings, in which students accused of sexual misconduct, or their lawyers, could confront and question accusers in a courtroom-like setting.

The new rules allow in-person hearings, but do not mandate them. They also require a process through which a decision maker could assess a party or witness’s credibility, including posing questions from the opposing party.

“The new regulations put an end to unfair and traumatic grievance procedures that favor harassers,” Kel O’Hara, a senior attorney at Equal Rights Advocates. “No longer will student survivors be subjected to processes that prioritize the interests of their perpetrators over their own well being and safety.”

The new rules also allow room for schools to use a “preponderance of evidence” standard, a lower burden of proof than the DeVos-era rules encouraged, through which administrators need only to determine whether it was more likely than not that sexual misconduct had occurred.

The renewed push for that standard drew criticism from legal groups who said the rule stripped away hard-won protections against flawed findings.

“When you are dealing with accusations of really one of the most heinous crimes that a person can commit — sexual assault — it’s not enough to say, ‘50 percent and a feather,’ before you brand someone guilty of this repulsive crime,” said Will Creeley, the legal director of the Foundation for Individual Rights and Expression.

The changes concluded a three-year process in which the department received 240,000 public comments. The rules also strengthen protections for pregnant students, requiring accommodations such as a bigger desk or ensuring access to elevators and prohibiting exclusion from activities based on additional needs.

Title IX was designed to end discrimination based on sex in educational programs or activities at all institutions receiving federal financial assistance, beginning with sports programs and other spaces previously dominated by male students.

The effects of the original law have been pronounced. Far beyond the impact on school programs like sports teams, many educators credit Title IX with setting the stage for academic parity today. Female college students routinely outnumber male students on campus and have become more likely than men of the same age to graduate with a four-year degree.

But since its inception, Title IX has also become a powerful vehicle through which past administrations have sought to steer schools to respond to the dynamic and diverse nature of schools and universities.

While civil rights groups were disappointed that some ambiguity remains for the L.G.B.T.Q. students and their families, the new rules were widely praised for taking a stand at a time when education debates are reminiscent to the backlash after the Supreme Court ordered schools to integrate.

More than 20 states have passed laws that broadly prohibit anyone assigned male at birth from playing on girls’ and women’s sports teams or participating in scholastic athletic programs, while 10 states have laws barring transgender people from using bathrooms based on their gender identity.

“Some adults are showing up and saying, ‘I’m going to make school harder for children,” said Liz King, senior program director of the education equity program at the Leadership Conference on Civil and Human Rights. “It’s an incredibly important rule, at an incredibly important moment.”

Schools will have to cram over the summer to implement the rules, which will require a retraining staff and overhauling procedures they implemented only four years ago.

Ted Mitchell, the president of the American Council on Education, which represents more than 1,700 colleges and universities, said in a statement that while the group welcomed the changes in the new rule, the timeline “disregards the difficulties inherent in making these changes on our nation’s campuses in such a short period of time.”

“After years of constant churn in Title IX guidance and regulations,” Mr. Mitchell said, “we hope for the sake of students and institutions that there will be more stability and consistency in the requirements going forward.”

Promises Donald Trump has made so far in his campaign for a second term

Former President Donald Trump, now the presumptive Republican nominee, has made a number of promises on the campaign trail, including rolling back car pollution rules, building 10 new cities and appointing a special prosecutor to investigate President Joe Biden and his family.

While some of Trump’s plans are lacking in detail, here are some of the policies he says he would enact if elected for a second term.

Immigration

Trump has made immigration and the border a central campaign issue, successfully pressuring Republicans to reject a major bipartisan border deal last month and making a trip to the southern border on February 29, where he touted his previous hard-line immigration policies.

In a Des Moines Register op-ed published roughly a week before winning the Iowa caucuses in January, Trump vowed to use the “Alien Enemies Act to remove known or suspected gang members, drug dealers, or cartel members from the United States.”

“We will shift massive portions of federal law enforcement to immigration enforcement — including parts of the DEA, ATF, FBI, and DHS,” he wrote.

In a video posted on Truth Social in late February before his border visit, Trump also promised to “carry out the largest domestic deportation operation in American history.”

We will shift massive portions of federal law enforcement to immigration enforcement — including parts of the DEA, ATF, FBI, and DHS.”

After the Israel-Hamas war began last October, Trump also promised to terminate the visas of “Hamas’ sympathizers.”

“We’ll get them off our college campuses, out of our cities and get them the hell out of our country, if that’s OK with you,” he added.

Drug cartels

The former president has also made waging “war” on drug cartels a priority for his second term. If elected, Trump said in his November 2022 campaign announcement that he would ask Congress to ensure that drug smugglers and human traffickers can receive the death penalty for their “heinous acts.”

Trump also vowed to “take down” drug cartels by imposing naval embargos on cartels, cutting off cartels’ access to global financial systems and using special forces within the Department of Defense to damage the cartels’ leadership.

Trump announced plans in a September 2023 campaign video to close the Department of Education and send “all education and education work and needs back to the states.”

“We want them to run the education of our children, because they’ll do a much better job of it,” he added.

The former president has also promised to “put parents back in charge and give them the final say” in education. In a January 2023 campaign video , the former president said he would give funding preferences and “favorable treatment” to schools that allow parents to elect principals, abolish teacher tenure for K-12 teachers, use merit pay to incentivize quality teaching and cut the number of school administrators, such as those overseeing diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives.

We want them to run the education of our children, because they’ll do a much better job of it.”

Trump also said in that campaign video that he would cut funding for schools that teach critical race theory and gender ideology. In a later speech , Trump said he would bring back the 1776 Commission , which was launched in his previous administration to “teach our values and promote our history and our traditions to our children.”

The former president said he would charge the Department of Justice and the Department of Education with investigating civil rights violations of race-based discrimination in schools while also removing “Marxists” from the Department of Education. A second Trump administration would pursue violations in schools of both the Constitution’s Establishment and Free Exercise clauses, which prohibit the government establishment of religion and protect a citizen’s right to practice their own religion, he said.

Health care

Last November, Trump promised to replace the Affordable Care Act , known colloquially as Obamacare, in a series of posts on Truth Social. A Trump-backed effort to repeal and replace Obamacare failed in 2017 after three Republicans senators joined with Democrats to vote against the bill.

“Getting much better Healthcare than Obamacare for the American people will be a priority of the Trump Administration,” he said .

“It is not a matter of cost, it is a matter of HEALTH. America will have one of the best Healthcare Plans anywhere in the world. Right now it has one of the WORST!,” he continued. He also doubled down on his vow during a speech in early January.

Getting much better Healthcare than Obamacare for the American people will be a priority of the Trump Administration.”

Trump also vowed in a June 2023 campaign video to reinstate his previous executive order so that the US government would pay the same price for pharmaceuticals as other developed countries. Some of the former president’s pharmaceutical policies were overturned by Biden.

Gender care

“I will revoke every Biden policy promoting the chemical castration and sexual mutilation of our youth and ask Congress to send me a bill prohibiting child sexual mutilation in all 50 states,” Trump said at the 2023 Conservative Political Action Conference last March.

Trump added in a campaign video that he would issue an executive order instructing federal agencies to cut programs that promote gender transitions, as well as asking Congress to stop the use of federal dollars to promote and pay for gender-affirming procedures. The former president added that his administration would not allow hospitals and health care providers to meet the federal health and safety standards for Medicaid and Medicare if they provide chemical or physical gender-affirming care to youth.

Justice system

Trump has promised to use the Department of Justice to attack critics and former allies. In several videos and speeches, the former president also laid out plans to gut the current justice system by firing “radical Marxist prosecutors that are destroying America.”

“I will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the United States of America, Joe Biden, and the entire Biden crime family,” Trump said in June 2023 remarks . “I will totally obliterate the Deep State.”

Trump said in a campaign video last year that he would reinstate a 2020 executive order to remove “rogue” bureaucrats and propose a constitutional amendment for term limits on members of Congress.

I will appoint a real special prosecutor to go after the most corrupt president in the history of the United States of America, Joe Biden, and the entire Biden crime family.”

To address what he labeled the “disturbing” relationship between technology platforms and the government, the former president said in a January 2023 video that he would enact a seven-year cooling off period before employees at agencies such as the FBI or CIA can work for platforms that oversee mass user data.

Trump added in multiple campaign releases that he would task the Justice Department with investigating online censorship, ban federal agencies from “colluding” to censor citizens and suspend federal money to universities participating in “censorship-supporting activities.”

In a September 2023 speech at the Family Research Council’s Pray Vote Stand Summit in Washington, DC, Trump also touted plans to continue appointing conservative judges.

“I will once again appoint rock-solid conservative judges to do what they have to do in the mold of Justices Antonin Scalia; Samuel Alito, a great gentleman; and another great gentleman, Clarence Thomas,” he said.

Trump has also pledged to “appoint U.S. Attorneys who will be the polar opposite of the Soros District Attorneys and others that are being appointed throughout the United States.”

In a September 2023 speech in Washington, DC, Trump also announced that he would appoint a task force to review the cases of people he claimed had been “unjustly persecuted by the Biden administration.” Trump noted that he wanted to “study the situation very quickly, and sign their pardons or commutations on day one.”

It’s a move that could lead to potential pardons of many rioters from the January 6, 2021, insurrection – which he suggested he would do at a CNN town hall in May 2023.

* Only promises on judge appointments and congressional term limits are similar to prior campaigns

Trump said in two February 2023 campaign videos that if “Marxist” prosecutors refuse to charge crimes and surrender “our cities to violent criminals,” he “will not hesitate to send in federal law enforcement to restore peace and public safety.”

Trump added that he would instruct the Department of Justice to open civil rights investigations into “radical left” prosecutors’ offices that engaged in racial enforcement of the law, encourage Congress to use their legal authority over Washington, DC, to restore “law and order” and overhaul federal standards of disciplining minors to address rising crimes like carjackings.

Addressing policies made in what Trump calls the “Democrats’ war on police,” the former president vowed in a campaign video that he would pass a “record investment” to hire and retrain police, strengthen protections like qualified immunity, increase penalties for assaulting law enforcement officers and deploy the National Guard when local law enforcement “refuses to act.”

The former president added that he would require law enforcement agencies that receive money from his funding investment or the Department of Justice to use “proven common sense” measures such as stop-and-frisk.

Foreign policy

Trump has continued his attacks against member countries of NATO, a European and North American defense alliance. At a South Carolina rally last month, Trump said he would not abide by the alliance’s collective-defense clause and would encourage Russia to do “whatever the hell they want” if a member country didn’t meet spending guidelines.

“NATO was busted until I came along,” Trump said. “I said, ‘Everybody’s gonna pay.’ They said, ‘Well, if we don’t pay, are you still going to protect us?’ I said, ‘Absolutely not.’ They couldn’t believe the answer.”

The former president has also previously pledged to end the war in Ukraine, though he’s offered no details on how he would do so. “Shortly after I win the presidency, I will have the horrible war between Russia and Ukraine settled,” Trump said at a New Hampshire campaign event last year, adding in another speech that it would take him “no longer than one day” to settle the war if elected.

NATO was busted until I came along. I said, ‘Everybody’s gonna pay.’ They said, ‘Well, if we don’t pay, are you still going to protect us?’ I said, ‘Absolutely not.’”

Trump further addressed his strategy of stopping the “never-ending wars” by vowing to remove “warmongers,” “frauds” and “failures in the senior ranks of our government,” and replace them with national security officials who would defend America’s interests. The former president added in a campaign video that he would stop lobbyists and government contractors from pushing senior military officials toward war.

In addition, Trump has said he would restore his “wonderful” travel ban on individuals from several majority-Muslim countries to “keep radical Islamic terrorists out of our country” after Biden overturned the ban in 2021.

New cities and flying cars

Trump said in multiple campaign videos that he would spearhead an effort to build so-called “Freedom Cities” to “reopen the frontier, reignite American imagination, and give hundreds of thousands of young people and other people, all hardworking families, a new shot at home ownership and in fact, the American Dream.”

In his plan, the federal government would charter 10 new cities on federal land, awarding them to areas with the best development proposals. The former president said in a campaign video that the Freedom Cities would bring the return of US manufacturing, economic opportunity, new industries and affordable living.

In the March 2023 video, Trump added that the US under a second Trump administration would lead in efforts to “develop vertical-takeoff-and-landing vehicles for families and individuals,” not letting China lead “this revolution in air mobility.” The former president said these airborne vehicles would change commerce and bring wealth into rural communities.

Electric vehicles

Trump has promised to roll back new car pollution rules at the Environmental Protection Agency that could require electric vehicles to account for up to two-thirds of new cars sold in the US by 2032. Biden’s electrical vehicle-related policies, Trump claimed at a Michigan rally last September , “spell the death of the US auto industry.”

“On day one, I will terminate Joe Biden’s electrical vehicle mandate, and I will cancel every job-killing regulation that is crushing American autoworkers,” Trump added.

Trump has promised to reduce energy prices by increasing domestic production. In several campaign appearances, he has laid out plans to end delays in federal drilling permits and leases.

“We’re going to ‘drill, baby, drill’ right away,” Trump told a crowd of supporters in Des Moines, Iowa, during a victory speech after winning the state’s Republican caucuses in January.

At a South Carolina rally in February, he pledged to remove limits on American natural gas exports.

At the same rally in South Carolina, Trump pledged to impose “stiff penalties on China and other trade abusers.”

“It’s called you screw us, and we screw you,” Trump said.

Under his proposed “Trump Reciprocal Trade Act,” the former president said if other countries impose tariffs on the US, the country would impose “a reciprocal, identical” tariff right back .

It was the same pledge Trump made in a campaign video in 2023: to impose the same tariffs that other countries may impose on the US on those countries. The goal, the former president said then, is to get other countries to drop their tariffs.

It’s called you screw us, and we screw you.”

As part of a larger strategy to bring jobs back into the US, Trump also said he would implement his so-called “ America First ” trade agenda if elected. By setting universal baseline tariffs on a majority of foreign goods, the former president said Americans would see taxes decrease as tariffs increase. His proposal also includes a four-year plan to phase out all Chinese imports of essential goods , as well as stopping China from buying up America and stopping the investment of US companies in China.

Trump also said in February that he would consider imposing a tariff upward of 60% on all Chinese imports if he’s reelected.

The former president has particularly focused on China, vowing in a January 2023 campaign video to restrict Chinese ownership of US infrastructure such as energy, technology, telecommunications and natural resources. Trump also said he would force the Chinese to sell current holdings that may put national security at risk. “Economic security is national security,” he said.

Trump has promised to extend the cuts from his 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, notably the TCJA’s individual income tax breaks. The former president has also talked about reducing the corporate tax rate from the current 21% to 15%.

“I will make the Trump tax cuts the largest tax cut in history,” the former president said last month at the Black Conservative Federation’s Honors Gala in South Carolina. “We’ll make it permanent and give you a new economic boom.”

I will make the Trump tax cuts the largest tax cut in history.”

Trump has also pledged to repeal Biden’s tax hikes , “immediately tackle” inflation and end what he called Biden’s “war” on American energy production.

Second Amendment

“I will take Biden’s executive order directing the federal government to target the firearms industry, and I will rip it up and throw it out on day one,” Trump said at the 2023 National Rifle Association Institute for Legislative Action leadership forum last April.

The former president also promised in the speech that the government would not infringe on citizens’ Second Amendment rights and that he would push Congress to pass a concealed carry reciprocity.

“I will create a special team to rapidly review every action taken by federal agencies under Biden’s ‘equity’ agenda that will need to be reversed. We will reverse almost all of them,” Trump said in a campaign video .

Trump added in multiple campaign videos that he would revoke Biden’s equity executive order that required federal agencies to deliver equitable outcomes in policy and conduct equity training. If elected, Trump said he would also fire staffers hired to implement Biden’s policy, and then reinstate his 2020 executive order banning racial and sexual stereotyping in the federal government.

What the New Overtime Rule Means for Workers

Collage shows four professionals in business casual clothing.

One of the basic principles of the American workplace is that a hard day’s work deserves a fair day’s pay. Simply put, every worker’s time has value. A cornerstone of that promise is the  Fair Labor Standards Act ’s (FLSA) requirement that when most workers work more than 40 hours in a week, they get paid more. The  Department of Labor ’s new overtime regulation is restoring and extending this promise for millions more lower-paid salaried workers in the U.S.

Overtime protections have been a critical part of the FLSA since 1938 and were established to protect workers from exploitation and to benefit workers, their families and our communities. Strong overtime protections help build America’s middle class and ensure that workers are not overworked and underpaid.

Some workers are specifically exempt from the FLSA’s minimum wage and overtime protections, including bona fide executive, administrative or professional employees. This exemption, typically referred to as the “EAP” exemption, applies when: 

1. An employee is paid a salary,  

2. The salary is not less than a minimum salary threshold amount, and 

3. The employee primarily performs executive, administrative or professional duties.

While the department increased the minimum salary required for the EAP exemption from overtime pay every 5 to 9 years between 1938 and 1975, long periods between increases to the salary requirement after 1975 have caused an erosion of the real value of the salary threshold, lessening its effectiveness in helping to identify exempt EAP employees.

The department’s new overtime rule was developed based on almost 30 listening sessions across the country and the final rule was issued after reviewing over 33,000 written comments. We heard from a wide variety of members of the public who shared valuable insights to help us develop this Administration’s overtime rule, including from workers who told us: “I would love the opportunity to...be compensated for time worked beyond 40 hours, or alternately be given a raise,” and “I make around $40,000 a year and most week[s] work well over 40 hours (likely in the 45-50 range). This rule change would benefit me greatly and ensure that my time is paid for!” and “Please, I would love to be paid for the extra hours I work!”

The department’s final rule, which will go into effect on July 1, 2024, will increase the standard salary level that helps define and delimit which salaried workers are entitled to overtime pay protections under the FLSA. 

Starting July 1, most salaried workers who earn less than $844 per week will become eligible for overtime pay under the final rule. And on Jan. 1, 2025, most salaried workers who make less than $1,128 per week will become eligible for overtime pay. As these changes occur, job duties will continue to determine overtime exemption status for most salaried employees.

Who will become eligible for overtime pay under the final rule? Currently most salaried workers earning less than $684/week. Starting July 1, 2024, most salaried workers earning less than $844/week. Starting Jan. 1, 2025, most salaried workers earning less than $1,128/week. Starting July 1, 2027, the eligibility thresholds will be updated every three years, based on current wage data. DOL.gov/OT

The rule will also increase the total annual compensation requirement for highly compensated employees (who are not entitled to overtime pay under the FLSA if certain requirements are met) from $107,432 per year to $132,964 per year on July 1, 2024, and then set it equal to $151,164 per year on Jan. 1, 2025.

Starting July 1, 2027, these earnings thresholds will be updated every three years so they keep pace with changes in worker salaries, ensuring that employers can adapt more easily because they’ll know when salary updates will happen and how they’ll be calculated.

The final rule will restore and extend the right to overtime pay to many salaried workers, including workers who historically were entitled to overtime pay under the FLSA because of their lower pay or the type of work they performed. 

We urge workers and employers to visit  our website to learn more about the final rule.

Jersey City municipal budget to be presented at next city council meeting

Jersey City taxpayers may not have to tremble this year when they see their property taxes.

The city will present its municipal budget with a “less than 2%” increase on taxpayers at next week’s city council meeting, Mayor Steve Fulop said in a social media post.

Last year’s budget included a 2% increase in the municipal tax levy, resulting in a $70 increase for the average assessed home valued at $467,000. But that increase went unfelt due to an average decrease of $27 in the city’s portion of the Hudson County budget, and a $51 decrease per average homeowner in the city’s public school budget.

Next week we will introduce the municipal budget. It will be a less than 2% change. Well below inflation despite costs for govt going up significantly (labor, energy, goods). I’m responsible for the municipal portion of your taxes (not schools or county) but we would put our 10… pic.twitter.com/XcvjP15FZ7 — Steven Fulop (@StevenFulop) April 29, 2024
