DoE Issues Guidelines for ‘Bagless Days’

The Directorate of Education announced instructions on Tuesday for implementing ten bagless days at Delhi's government and private schools. In a circular, the Department of Education urged all school principals to undertake ten bagless days for children in grades six through eight.

The National Council of Educational Research and Training (NCERT) produced the recommendations in response to the National Education Policy 2020 suggestion, and they are "aimed at making learning at school an experiential, joyful, and stress-free experience for students," according to the circular.

“Activities may be carefully chosen to optimize the resources available at the school’s disposal. Bagless activities conducted during execution of Happiness Curriculum or excursion visits etc. may be included in bagless days,” added the Directorate of Education.

“Under these guidelines, students may visit historical monuments, cultural sites, craft centres, places of tourist interest, and many more. They can meet artists and craftsmen, to broaden their understanding of different concepts and traditions, and help them appreciate the importance of preserving heritage,” the guidelines stated.
