Abstract

This paper critically examines the objectives of policy manifest in NCF-2005 for its directions and attitude towards school design. It identifies grey areas in understanding of the concept by policy makers. The paper advocates remedying policy-based lacunae for an improved QoL by an extended appreciation of the concepts stated in NCF 2005 from the point of view of child centricity. The study strongly recommends inclusion of architects and planners in the policy-making process.
