Select your answer for: The Basic Education Community Schools (BECS) project was proposed for launch under which educational policy_______________?
Show answer

Answer: C. National Education Policy 1998

Explanation

The Basic Education Community Schools project was proposed for launch under the National Education Policy 1998. This project aimed to establish community managed schools in areas lacking formal government institutions. Community involvement ensured local accountability and sustained enrollment in remote educational ventures. Community schools operate on low cost models relying heavily on local teachers and community facilities. The 1998 policy emphasized expanding basic education access through innovative, decentralized mechanisms. Grassroots educational projects help reach marginalized children who are excluded from mainstream schooling.

Decentralized community schools empower local populations to take charge of their childrens education. Such projects are vital for achieving national literacy goals in geographically challenging terrain. Involving local communities reduces administrative overhead and fosters strong school community partnerships. First Educational Conference 1947 focused on national identity and basic state institutions instead. Education Commission 1959 concentrated on conventional secondary and higher education reforms. The option none of the above is incorrect because the 1998 policy clearly proposed BECS.
