Why the Textbook Changed This Year
The shift from Beehive and Moments to Kaveri reflects the broader changes introduced by NEP 2020 and NCF-SE 2023. The new curriculum moves away from recall-based learning toward building three core competencies – effective communication, reasoned argumentation and literary appreciation. Kaveri brings a wider range of genres, Indian and international authors and a unit structure designed to make students active, independent learners rather than passive readers.
