According to the National Education Policy 2020, the work of National Mission for Mentoring (NMM) for the professional development of teachers will be done through which organization ?
NCTE
National Education Policy 2020 (para 15.11) proposes a National Mission for Mentoring, with a large pool of outstanding senior and retired faculty, including those able to teach in Indian languages, who would give short and long-term mentoring and professional support to university and college teachers.
Teacher education and the continuous professional development of teachers fall under the National Council for Teacher Education (NCTE), which under NEP 2020 is to function as the Professional Standard Setting Body for teacher education; the mentoring mission is linked with this teacher-education framework through NCTE.
NCERT deals with school curriculum and textbooks, IUCTE refers to the Inter-University Centre for Teacher Education (a UGC centre at Varanasi), and UGC (to be subsumed into HECI) deals with funding and standards of universities, so none of them is named for the mentoring mission.
Hence, the National Mission for Mentoring will be carried out through NCTE.
