Abstract
The ancient Indian Gurukula system is a
holistic, comprehensive educational approach. The education system emerged from
the principles of self-discipline, experiential learning, and life-centric
knowledge. The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 recommends a radical
overhaul of India's existing educational system. The basis of this policy is
indigenous knowledge systems. The Gurukula model of education inspires the
recommendations. The relevance of the Gurukula curriculum in the modern
education system is examined in this article. The article pays particular
attention to how well it complies with NEP 2020 guidelines. The study also
tries to analyse how it can be incorporated into the procedures that CBSE,
Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVS), and ICSE schools currently practice. By
investigating pedagogical trends and regulatory frameworks, this article seeks
to revive the Gurukula ethos in order to support competency-driven,
value-based, and holistic education in India.
