UGC NET Questions (Paper – 1)

NEP 2020 envisions teaching as a true profession with a clear career structure. Movement across stages is linked to NPST, appraisals and CPD records. This encourages continuous improvement and recognises high performance and leadership capacities.

Option A:
This option aligns with the idea of merit- and competency-based progression.

Option B:
Solely age-based seniority ignores quality and effort and is discouraged.

Option C:
Refusing promotions entirely would demotivate teachers and is not suggested.

Option D:
Using only exam ranks as criteria narrows focus and distorts teaching priorities.
