In the schools of Uttar Pradesh, a special mission called NIPUN Bharat is running to help young children from pre-primary to Class 2 learn language and maths better. This work is done by the Basic Education Department. For the new academic session 2025-26, new NIPUN targets have been shared. These targets will help make teaching and learning strong and smooth for children in government schools. All officers and teachers have their tasks to meet the NIPUN goals.
The Block Education Officers (BEOs) have been told to make one school in their block a model school. This means they will choose one primary or composite school and help it become an ideal school under the NIPUN mission. DIET mentors will also take one school in their block and work hard to improve it. These mentors will support learning in classrooms, help teachers, and make sure students are learning well.
The SRG (State Resource Group) teachers will work in the schools where they are posted to help with NIPUN goals. The ERP (Educational Resource Persons) in each block will support 10 schools in their area. These ERPs will go to schools, support teachers, and ensure children are learning as per the targets. All these people will also work closely with the teachers to solve any learning problems.
The teachers who were earlier ERPs will now work in their current schools to help students achieve NIPUN levels. They will give their best to help the school and the children succeed. The focus is to build strong learning habits in young children, especially in language and mathematics. The schools will also use learning materials like workbooks, learning kits, and printed TLM (Teaching Learning Materials) to support classroom teaching.
Director General of School Education, Ms. Kanchan Verma, has given special instructions to all BSA (Basic Shiksha Adhikaris), DIET principals, and officers. She said that every school should try to get 80% or more attendance from the students. Children should not miss school, and they should come daily to learn better. Teachers must complete the syllabus of every subject in Class 5 each month. This helps students to stay on track and be ready for the final exams.
Every month, on the fourth Monday, a meeting will be held with all headmasters. These meetings will help check how the NIPUN mission is going in each school. The officers will review what work has been done, what needs to be improved, and how to solve any teaching-learning problems.
The government wants children to learn at home, too. So, teachers and schools will promote "Learning at Home". Parents will be involved in helping children learn at home, too. The aim is to make children smarter and more confident in studies, even outside the classroom.
One big part of the plan is to check how much students are learning. For this, the Basic Education Department has decided that all primary and composite schools will go through the NIPUN Assessment. This assessment will be done in two rounds: one in December 2025 and one in February 2026. The D.El.Ed. trainees (teacher training students) will help in this process. These trainees will go to schools and take part in checking how well children have learned.
All officers and staff must complete the planning and preparation for these NIPUN assessments in time. No work should be left incomplete. This way, the government can find out which children are learning well and which students need more help.
All schools have been told to keep a focus on fun learning. Students should enjoy coming to school and learning new things. The teachers will also use new methods like group activities, games, stories, and songs to make learning easy and joyful. If children enjoy learning, they will understand better and remember what they study.
The NIPUN Bharat mission is very important for Uttar Pradesh. It wants to make sure that every child can read, write, and do basic maths by the time they complete Class 3. To achieve this, the government is working hard with teachers, schools, and officers. The success of this mission depends on the teamwork and dedication of everyone.
Parents are also being told to support their children. They must send their children to school daily and also check what they are learning. The schools are sharing study plans and learning tasks with parents. So, families become part of the mission, too. Together, teachers and parents can help the child grow better.
Training of teachers is also happening regularly. Teachers are learning new methods to teach language and maths better. They are also learning how to use new study tools and kits in the classroom. Teachers are being trained to take care of each child’s learning level and needs.
Learning outcomes are the main focus of the NIPUN mission. This means the goal is to make sure students really understand what they are learning. Just completing the syllabus is not enough. Children must be able to read a small story or solve basic sums on their own. Teachers will check if children have learned the topic or not.
All schools will display NIPUN learning goals on their walls. Teachers will explain these goals to the children again and again so they know what they are trying to achieve. The students will get small tasks and regular feedback so they can keep improving.
DIETs will play a big role. DIETs (District Institute of Education and Training) will check if schools are meeting their goals. They will guide teachers and give help when needed. They will also collect reports about school performance and share them with higher officials.
Educational kits will be given to all schools. These kits have games, charts, flashcards, and simple tools for maths and language. These kits will be used by teachers in class to make lessons fun and clear. These materials are useful for children who learn by seeing or doing.
Each month, officers will also check if schools are using the materials properly. They will visit schools and talk to teachers and students to see what is going well and what needs more attention. All reports will be reviewed during monthly meetings.
Digital tools will also be used in NIPUN work. Videos, mobile apps, and online content will be used for teacher training and student learning. Schools will be encouraged to use smart classes where possible.
The mission is not only for cities but also for remote and rural areas. Special help will be given to schools in tribal areas, backward regions, and places where learning levels are low. These schools will be given extra support and regular visits by officers.
If a child is not learning properly, the teacher will give him/her extra time and personal help. This is called remedial learning. The goal is to make sure no child is left behind. Each child is important, and they all must achieve the NIPUN level.
The progress of every school will be tracked online. Each block and district will be ranked based on their NIPUN work. The best-performing schools and officers will also be given awards and recognition.
In the end, the mission is about making sure that every child can read, write, and do maths confidently by the end of Class 3. With the help of teachers, officers, parents, and the community, Uttar Pradesh wants to make every school a place where learning is joyful and strong. The 2025-26 targets are set to bring this dream closer to reality.
