Ten Bagless Days a Year

 

Ten Bagless Days a year for students from 6th class to 8th class as per NCERT guidelines under New Education Policy 2020.

The guidelines said bagless days were important to provide exposure to the world outside the classroom with transactions that affect and contribute to day-to-day life; to build observation-based learning capacity and scope for practice; and to develop an understanding of the connectedness of community and interdependence. Bagless days will also help develop interdependence in classrooms, with theoretical as well as practical application and promote the dignity of labour through hands-on activity and existing local vocations

In the guidelines, the bagless days’ curriculum has been divided into three themes — exposure to aspects of science, environment and tech; exposure to public office, local industry and business; and art, culture, and history.
