Public Education institutions with relevant mandate

NCERT is the apex national body tasked with framing curricular policy. It is an autonomous institution within MHRD. National University of Educational Planning and Administration (NUEPA) is the apex national institution of educational planning and administration and has led initiatives in its area including education planning, policy and management. NCERT led nationwide consultations to formulate the National Curricular Framework 2005, a landmark curricular document.

India is also fortunate to have a large number of NGOs and CBOs that have been working with the public education system for decades.
