NEP 2020 states that stand-alone teacher education institutions will gradually be phased out. Teacher preparation is to be moved into multidisciplinary HEIs so that prospective teachers experience a rich academic environment. This integration improves quality and status of teacher education.
Option A:
Keeping teacher education isolated in stand-alone colleges has contributed to poor quality and low status, which NEP criticises.
Option B:
This option matches the explicit recommendation that teacher education be part of universities and multidisciplinary colleges, supporting cross-disciplinary learning and research.
Option C:
Commercial institutes alone cannot ensure academic rigour and public accountability expected of teacher education programmes.
Option D:
Weekend workshops are useful for in-service training but cannot replace full pre-service programmes leading to a B.Ed.
