Consultative workshop on revised NSQAAF

A one-day consultative workshop on the revised Nagaland School Quality Assessment and Accreditation Framework (NSQAAF) and State School Standards Authority (SSSA) was held at SIEMAT Hall, SCERT, Kohima, organised by SCERT Nagaland and funded by Samagra Shiksha on Friday.
According to DIPR report, delivering keynote address, SCERT Director Keviraleü Kerhuo welcomed participants and acknowledged the presence of various departments and associations including DoSE, NBSE, SCTE, NECTAR, ANPSA, ANSTA, and the Diocese.
Kerhuo said the implementation of NEP 2020 was aimed at making schools nurturing spaces for holistic student development. She informed that the SARTHAQ plan was introduced to support this goal, incorporating over 7,000 suggestions nationwide.
Highlighting Task 215, she said it focuses on developing the SQAAF framework to help schools assess and improve quality through clear standards.
Kerhuo clarified that SQAAF is not a controlling mechanism but a supportive tool to promote excellence, transparency, and accountability. She stated that Nagaland will use SQAAF as a transformative tool to redefine school quality, with SCERT leading its development in close collaboration with stakeholders.
She urged all participants to contribute actively to making the framework relevant and practical, ensuring quality education for every child in the state.
