The Crime Desk: Stating that the new curriculum is not feasible, Wahiduddin Mahmud, education advisor of the interim government, said that we will revise the new curriculum and go back to the previous curriculum. But I will not make the students uncomfortable.
He said this to reporters at the secretariat on Sunday (August 18). After being sworn in as an adviser last Friday (August 17), he has been given the responsibility of the Ministry of Planning and Ministry of Education.
The education advisor said the new curriculum was launched in 2021. For so long, a lot of research data has been created about them at the field level everywhere; I have them. Education must be improved; times are changing. But what has been created is very difficult to implement at the present stage. With the teachers we have. I don’t think it is useful for our country at all.
The advisor said we will go back to the previous curriculum step by step. But I will not make those who have entered the new education system uncomfortable. So that students and teachers do not feel uncomfortable. So that there is no discontinuity. We will start the work. Maybe I can’t finish. The student who enters this course should not feel any discomfort. without any change. We will ensure that effort.
On the question of whether the new curriculum will be cancelled, he said, I am not saying it will be cancelled. We will go back to the previous course step by step. Since it is not feasible. Those who are reading now, have entered, and have been reading for seven months, I will not make them uncomfortable. I’m not saying I’ll cancel it. Those who are in the class will not have any discomfort.
He said that the current curriculum is not feasible, especially in terms of the evaluation system. How to correct that, go back to previous education, and then how to make the transition is complicated. Reforming the education system will take time.
