The revised National Education Policy (NEP 2020) in India presents an opportunity to overcome the systemic inertia that has characterized the Indian education system since colonial times. This study explores how adopting a growth mindset through design thinking can benefit India’s education system and establish a strong foundation for economic transformation, with innovation at its core. Drawing inspiration from global practices and contextualizing them for the Indian context, the authors conduct interviews with stakeholders from the Ministry of Education, the curriculum design committee, as well as with educators to inform their research. It also boosts its findings through analysis of media articles, journal papers, and policy documents. Considering the current classroom scenario, the paper introduces a framework emphasizing curiosity/exploration and review/reflection.
