Select your answer for: Which educational policy suggested that scientific subjects should be taught through practical schools__________?
Show answer

Answer: A. Sergeant Report

Explanation

The Sergeant Report strongly emphasized practical training and laboratory work. It suggested that scientific subjects must be taught through fully equipped practical schools. This policy aimed to bridge the gap between theoretical knowledge and practical skills. The Sergeant Report was a comprehensive post-war educational development plan. It was published in 1944 by the Central Advisory Board of Education. The plan sought to establish a national system of education in India.

Practical science education is essential for technological and industrial development. Modern school curricula heavily rely on laboratory experiments for science subjects. Vocational and practical training reduces unemployment by teaching employable skills. Charles Grant Report focused on Christian missionary activities and language policy. Lord Macaulay Report heavily promoted English literary education over scientific practicality. Charter Act 1813 initiated state funding for education without specific scientific mandates.
