The main objective of the National Curriculum Framework (NCF 2005) is to connect knowledge to life outside the school, free learning from rote systems, and promote child-centered education. Meanwhile, under Section 16 of the Right to Education Act (RTE Act 2009), it is provisioned that no child shall be held back (failed) or expelled from school before the completion of elementary education (up to class 8) to reduce drop-out rates.
