The National Council of Educational Research and Training, or NCERT, is an organization in India that focuses on improving school education. Established in 1961, it develops educational resources, including textbooks and teaching materials, for students from Class 1 to Class 12. NCERT aims to provide quality education and promote a uniform curriculum across schools in India. NCERT also conducts research and training programs for teachers to enhance their skills and teaching methods. Additionally, it plays a crucial role in formulating educational policies and guidelines for the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) and other state boards, ensuring a cohesive educational framework.
