He is not an outsider in our business. He is part of it. We are not doing him a favor by serving him. He is doing us a favor by giving us an opportunity to do so.

In the 21st century, to perform a given task in real life, we need to think beyond mere accumulation of knowledge from textbooks. The NEP 2020 calls for a shift from assessment system where rote learning is emphasized to competency-based education (CBE). Competency-based education is an approach to teaching, where learner is placed at the center (student centered learning) which promotes learning, development of high order skills such as conceptual analysis, critical thinking. It emphasizes knowledge based on experiential learning relevant to daily life. Competency-based education is a form of education that derives curriculum from an analysis of a prospective or actual role in modern society and that attempts to certify students' progress on the basis of demonstrated performance in some or all aspects of that role. According to the theory, such demonstrations of competence do not depend on the amount of time spent in formal education settings (Riesman, 1979).

In the words of M.K. Gandhi, "By education I mean an all-round drawing out of the best in child and man-body, mind and spirit." - [Harijan: July 31, 1937]. The ultimate aim of any education process across the globe is to bring out the holistic development of children by drawing out their inherent potentials. The same was reiterated by Indian Nobel Laureate Rabindranath Tagore in a book titled “Art-The Basis of Education” by his student Devi Prasad (1998) where he emphasized the how arts and learning are related and how they together bring about holistic learning and development of children. Integration of arts in teaching-learning process encourages creativity, develops problem-solving abilities and improves the ability to handle mental imagery, as well as an understanding for using spaces creatively. (AIL guidelines NCERT, 2019). Over the past 10 years prominent theorists and practitioners such as Catterall, Eisner, and Gardner argued that the arts are integral to the education of the "whole child" (Catterall, 1998; Eisner, 1998; Gardner, 1999a) as cited in (Gullatt, 2008).
