After pushing for optional Class 10 board exams, HRD Minister Kapil Sibal on Monday pitched for a uniform core curriculum for Mathematics and Science for all school boards saying "we should break the walls."
Sibal said a core curriculum could pave the way for a common entrance exam for admission to professional courses.
He however admitted that achieving the idea is a "herculean task" since the current education system is narrow minded.
Sibal also said the reforms in education system should be carried out in a way that helps the country to change from being a "recipient of knowledge to producer of knowledge."
The Minister said he could not understand why there should be a difference in contents in Maths and Science.
"Subjects relating to environment and others can be different according to the state and city. But why should Science and Maths be different?" he asked.
