Education is an important aspect that plays a huge role in the modern, industrialized world. This is the age of science and technology. It is the age of explosion of knowledge, day by day, even at every moment, the new knowledge, researches have been explored. We live in the information era, where students are bombarded with information from all concerns, so the need of the hours, to engage students in the learning stream by establishing connections and linkages between various disciplines with the help of available knowledge. It is known as the multidisciplinary approach in education. NEP 2020 envision one large multidisciplinary Higher Education Institution (HET) in or near every district, 2030 and encourages multi-disciplinary approach from the primary education, flexibility to choose subjects from science and humanities to students. These types of recommendations encourages an inclusive holistic, fruitful, multidisciplinary education system. The present paper throws light on the multidisciplinary approach which is introduced in teacher education by NEP2020. There are many fundamental changes brought in education and teacher education too. One of the changes is elimination of separate existence of B.Ed. and its integration in multidisciplinary colleges. The process of confluence will create some challenges which should be catered with more academic manners. Some of the challenges are also discussed in the present paper.

According to National Education Policy the main aim is to provide a quality education for the growth of society. The education system of India was the need of hour to transform the future if all the children and youth in the country. The NEP has several goals. This paper is focused on the Goal 4 of the united Nation sustainable development.

The world in which we live now places a high value on the overall development of children. Our children have diverse, multitalented, and multitasking minds. Therefore, a comprehensive approach is essential if we want to succeed in every area of our life. The National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 states that all educational programmes shall offer a holistic education, including courses in the traditional arts, social sciences, and sciences as well as a variety of professional, technical, and vocational fields. This is due to NEP 2020's emphasis on the importance of holistic education for the nation's leadership in all spheres. The principle that education should be provided to people in a way that supports their entire development has long served as the foundation of Indian educational philosophy to promote the holistic development of mind, body and soul. Only by educating the whole person and attending to his physical, emotional, ethical, moral, cultural, social, and academic needs can one develop a compassionate, knowledgeable personality. Giving pupils the skills, they need to successfully manage both academic and personal issues is the aim of holistic education. The goal of this paper is to explain the holistic approach to education to the audience. Young minds are taught the principles of humanity through holistic education with the help of modern cultural elements like entertainment and music. It makes clear the biggest obstacles in life, how to go through them, succeed, and what core concepts need to be understood.

Education should prepare students to make wise professional decisions and excel in their chosen fields. While receiving an academic education, pupils are affected by their school atmosphere, which can either make them feel comfortable and at ease or sluggish and lethargic. Every school has its own distinct culture made by its patrons- Principal, students, instructors, administrators, and support staff- as well as the principles it upholds. Every student spends a significant portion of their life in school, where the ideas promoted by the institution shape their views, values, and ideals Therefore it is undeniable that school culture affects pupils, as well as their decision to attend college and pursue a job. The part that a country’s educational policies play in molding its citizens has a significant impact on not just their future but also that of the entire country. According to one of the NEP 2020's guiding principles, we should recognize, acknowledge, and nurture each student's distinctive strengths by educating parents and teachers about the importance of fostering each student's holistic development in both academic and extracurricular areas; while the Principle of Flexibility principle states that students can select their learning paths and programs and, in turn, decide on their own paths in life based on their talents and interests. Multidisciplinary and holistic education across the student life would ensure the unity and integrity of all knowledge

True teachers are those who use themselves as bridges over which they invite their students to cross; then, having facilitated their crossing, joyfully collapse, encouraging them to create their own .Creativity This paper focuses on what might be regarded as the first step in journey of school curriculum. If and how creativity is defined, where is it placed in the curriculum, and what concrete advice is provided for teachers? Creativity Is Introduced As 21st Century Skill in NEP 2020.The goal of NEP 2020 keeping a broader view on Education for Holistic Development with emphasis on development of creative potential of each Individual. The concept of “creativity” as a necessary attribute within education is established. The fields of education and creativity have developed, and periodically crossed with, Government, reports, policies, interpretations, and advice.

A good classroom environment always has some elements of creativity which makes the lessons more interesting and interactive. The right mix of creativity along with curriculum helps students to be innovative and also encourages them to learn new things. Students can grow up as good communicators in addition to improving their emotional and social skills.

Education is life itself; it is not a means of preparation for life. John Dewey, a well-known 20th-century philosopher, said. This still holds true today as it did during his lifetime. Critical thinking has long been seen as a crucial component of education. It entails reasoning, forming judgments and conclusions, and problemsolving. The fact that India's National Education Policy (NEP) 2020 places critical thinking at the forefront of research, curriculum and pedagogy, and evaluation is not surprising given this. This paper discusses about the critical thinkers’ characteristics and the ways to foster it in the classroom.
