On National Teachers' Day, the Prime Minister unveiled a new program called PM SHRI Schools (PM ScHools for Rising India).

PM-SHRI Scheme

It is a brand-new program that is sponsored by the government and will highlight the elements of the National Education Policy, 2020.
A centrally sponsored scheme is one where the union government and the states/union territories are expected to split the implementation costs 60:40.
The Center's contribution may reach 90% in Northeastern states, Himachal Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Jammu and Kashmir, and UTs without legislatures.
For instance, the PM Awas Yojana or the PM Poshan midday food programme.
As part of it, up to 14,500 schools in states and union territories would undergo renovations to reflect the major components of the NEP, 2020.
The National Education Plan (NEP) envisions a curriculum structure and teaching method organized into foundational, preparatory, intermediate, and secondary levels.
The schools run by PM SHRI will be an improvement on those currently operated by the Center, states, UTs, and local authorities. The PM SHRI schools may be KV, JNV, state government, or even municipal corporation-run establishments.

Significance

The goal of these schools will be to produce holistic, well-rounded persons with essential 21st-century abilities as well as high-quality teaching, learning, and cognitive development.
These schools will have cutting-edge facilities like labs, smart classrooms, and other contemporary talents.
These schools will use pedagogy that is more experiential, holistic, integrated, play- and toy-based, and inquiry- and discovery-driven.
