Abstract

The purpose of this study is to learn what students think about NEP2020.The syllabus will undergo significant modifications in NEP-2020, which students must comprehend. In this study, we will examine how students responded to the implementation of NEP and examine the opportunities and difficulties of the program from their perspective. The design for this study was the use of explanatory research, whereby primary data were gathered using a structured questionnaire on a Google form from a total of 180 respondents representing various educational levels and institution types. In the analysis of the students’ perceptions regarding NEP 2020, the impacts of the policy on their learning and skills development, and career readiness, descriptive statistics and chi-square tests were used in IBM SPSS Statistics 20. It was established that the students have moderate awareness regarding NEP 2020, and that most of them regard the policy as positive towards improving education and skill-based learning. On the other hand, the students have access to few information sources and face many challenges in implementation such as lack of awareness, inadequate career guidance, and adaptability. No statistically significant relationship was found between the age of the students and their awareness of NEP 2020 and no significant association between educational level and challenges in implementation.
