Education, at the present time, is in a state of rapid change due to information technology and advancement of education system. This change, carried out here with decorum, there with startling lack of ceremony, leaves few of us unaffected. Educational Institutions are changing in style, in organization and in relationship to the nearby communities by community engagement and other awareness programmes. The students are changing, particularly in their earlier maturity, and what is taught in the schools and the methods of its teaching are changing more rapidly and now following the NEP-2020 guidelines too. In no quarter has there been more progress than in the career awareness and guidance sector in Indian scenario where students are having several career awareness and guidance sources.

he Right of children to Free and Compulsory Education Act has come into force from April 1, 2010. This is a historic day for the people of India as from this day the right to education will be accorded the same legal status as the right to life as provided by Article 21A of the Indian Constitution. Every child in the age group of 6-14 years will be provided 8 years of elementary education in an age appropriate classroom in the vicinity of his/her neighbourhood. The researcher undertook the present research to assess the level of awareness of two most important stakeholders responsible for the proper implementation of RTE i.e. parents and teachers. The sample for the present study comprised 80 parents and 80 teachers selected by using stratified sampling technique. The data were collected by using self prepared questionnaire form the sample selected for the present research. The study found the 59 % of the parents have negligible awareness about RTE Act while 36 % of the elementary teachers are highly aware about RTE Act. No significant difference was found in the level of awareness of rural and urban parents about RTE Act. Significant difference was found in the level of awareness of govt. and private elementary school teachers about RTE Act.

A good old proverb goes like this– "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a life-time." The main idea is that it is more valuable to teach someone how to do something for themselves rather than doing it for them. As parents or educators, our job is to empower children with life skills so that they can reach their fullest potential and be happy individuals. Additionally, these skills will help them make meaningful contributions to society as future leaders. Life skills education starts at home. In the words of Geetika (A mother of a child)- “most of us can agree that home-schooling and online schooling are likely to continue due to the pandemic or pollution related issues. As a parent, I face the challenge of motivating my six-year-old child to complete his assignments on time. I have tried various methods like talking, scolding, rewarding, and even mild punishment, but none of them have a long-lasting effect. I am concerned that this could become an attitude problem later in life and it was causing strain on our relationship. However, while writing this, I realized that using a story might be a better way to convey my message. I came across a story called 'Kankucho birds' (a famous Buddhist parable from the book Cub Corner collection) that illustrates the consequences of procrastination. Although it hasn't made a significant difference yet, I believe that telling stories will eventually have an impact. It allows him to understand the messages and apply them in his own life. Additionally, our conflicts have reduced, creating a positive outcome for both of us. In addition to the efforts made by schools and educators, as parents, we also have the ability to greatly contribute to the education of our children. We can start by changing our approach towards education within our own homes. By sharing inspiring stories and encouraging deep thinking, we can help our children develop the necessary skills for a successful future. The small seeds of knowledge we plant in their minds today will ultimately shape the kind of individuals they become in the future.” Through this article, we will try to elaborate and explained the provisions of life skills in National Education Policy-2020 because this policy focuses on the wholistic development of the child and dedicated to make a sensible and moral full society.

What does "Interdisciplinary" mean? The incorporation of information from other fields into study or education is known as an interdisciplinary approach. Every day, a tremendous amount of information is poured into our brain. One way the brain organizes and stores pertinent information for speedy recall is through its capacity to spot patterns. Any educational problem is solved using an interdisciplinary exples approach, which may involve the use of two or more disciplines. Some Lace examples are educational psychology, educational sociology, and Sor educational Philosophy, Biology, Chemistry and Engineering, Technology, Computer science, Physics, Economics, Arts, culture, Humanities etc. In today's world some challenges are inherently complex and cannot be addressed or resolved by any single discipline, so it requires a multifaceted and integrated approach across disciplines (Gibbons et al., 1994; Frodeman et al., 2010; Aldrich, 2014; Ledford, 2015). Rosalind Franklin, a chemist, and Maurice Wilkins, a physicist and molecular biologist, were the first to the ever-increasing complexity is what drives the need for multidisciplinary research. Surprisingly, one of the most significant and sometimes disregarded advantages of interdisciplinary education is that it empowers students to reflect on their specialty and understand the true nature of their disciplines.
