HRD and IT Minister Nara Lokesh has proposed transitioning to a single-paper format for Mathematics, Botany, and Zoology and highlighted the lack of reforms in Intermediate education over the past decade.
He directed officials to prepare a new curriculum aimed at reducing the burden of textbooks for school children and improving the quality of education. During a four-hour review meeting with officials from the school, intermediate, and higher education departments at his Undavalli residence, on Tuesday he discussed a comprehensive overhaul of the education system from KG to PG, to be implemented in the 2025-26 academic year.
Minister Lokesh asserted reforms targeting an 'AP Model Education' system and proposed the inclusion of credit frameworks and internships in universities to achieve QS World Rankings.
