UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

NEP 2020 recognises that some learners advance faster or have special talents. It suggests enrichment clusters, mentorship and advanced projects to nurture their abilities. At the same time, it emphasises keeping them integrated with peers to support social development. This balances excellence with inclusion.

Option A:
Keeping gifted students always at the slowest pace may lead to boredom and loss of motivation and is not recommended.

Option B:
This option aligns with NEP’s approach of support without segregation, using flexible pacing and differentiated instruction.

Option C:
Permanent separation risks social isolation and goes against inclusive principles.

Option D:
Denying arts and sports narrows development; the policy values multiple talents for all students.
