Abstract National Curriculum Frameworks published in 2005 by the National Council of Educational Research and Training NCERT in India (NCF 2005) is one of the policy by the National Council of Educational Research and Training NCERT in India. The Framework provides the framework for making syllabus, textbooks and teaching practices within the school education programmes in India. The NCF 2005 document draws its policy basis from earlier government reports on education as Learning Without Burden. But it is not fully succeeded in achieving its objectives in current teaching scenario, therefore we need to draft NCF2009 for teacher education, an Indian government body set up under the National Council for Teacher Education Act 1993.This paper critically examines the objectives of policy manifest by makers. The paper advocates the reforms in learner centered approach in school teaching, so that students can learn and do activities by themselves under the instruction or observation of teacher.
