Secondary Stage

At DPS Tezpur, as per The New Education Policy (NEP) 2020, we emphasize a holistic and flexible curriculum that fosters critical thinking, creativity, and practical learning. we have redesigned our program to align with NEP’s focus on multidisciplinary learning, skill development, and student-centric education.

In keeping with NEP’s flexibility, students have been given exposure to vocational skills like Employability Skills & Financial Education alongside academic subjects, preparing them for real-world challenges. Assessment will be more formative and competency-based, reducing the emphasis on rote learning, and focusing on conceptual understanding. The introduction of experiential learning through projects, internships, and fieldwork will help students apply their knowledge in practical situations.

The NEP also promotes multilingualism, so students have the option to study additional languages. With an emphasis on life skills, digital literacy, and critical thinking, we aim to nurture well-rounded individuals ready for the challenges of the 21st century. Guidance on career pathways and higher education options will be integrated into the curriculum from Grade 9, helping students make informed choices.

Regular assessments, feedback, and personalized learning support will ensure each student’s progress is closely monitored. Through this NEP- aligned program, we are committed to offering a dynamic, flexible, and enriching learning experience that prepares students not only for academic success but also for life beyond school.
