UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

NEP 2020 views CPD as an ongoing process and recommends a mix of modes—online courses, workshops, peer learning and school-based activities—so that teachers can continuously update and refine their practice.

Option A:
One-time pre-service training is insufficient; NEP explicitly calls for regular CPD, typically at least 50 hours annually.

Option B:
This option matches the policy’s flexible, multi-mode strategy for continuous teacher development.

Option C:
Long residential courses can be useful but cannot be the only or primary mode for all teachers.

Option D:
Punitive remedial classes for “weak” teachers would discourage professional growth; NEP’s approach to CPD is supportive and developmental, not punitive.
