ABSTRACT
The decision came in light of the repeated concerns over the quality of learning and the unnecessary academic pressure on school-going children. National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) is responsible for reviewing and formulating the curriculum at regular intervals, considering the fact that a national curriculum cannot be a static document, but rather should be revised at regular intervals to reflect dynamism and the diversity of society, which is reflected in schools. NCERT does recognize that change in public or external exams will take time and requires policy modifications; therefore, currently the focus is on internal exams. The position paper on mathematics states that since the language used in mathematics textbooks is very different from the language students use in their day-to-day living, it creates anxiety and fear in students. Validity in content analysis is proven when the results help the purpose of the analysis.
