Inclusive education principle – UGC NET Question

NEP 2020 emphasises inclusion as a core value. It calls for regular schools to accommodate diverse learners through support services, accessible infrastructure and teacher preparation. Special schools may exist but mainly as resource centres. The goal is participation of every child in quality education.

Option A:
Segregating all children with disabilities contradicts the policy’s mainstreaming focus.

Option B:
This option summarises NEP’s rights-based and support-oriented perspective on inclusion.

Option C:
Denying admission is discriminatory and not permitted.

Option D:
Restricting schooling to only high achievers would violate universalisation goals.
