The Supreme Court's decision to replace the BEd degree with a Diploma in Elementary Education (DElEd) for primary school teacher appointments has sparked controversy in the education sector.

Stakeholders suggest a transitional period to upskill BEd holders. The National Education Policy 2020 proposes the Integrated Teachers Education Programme (ITEP) for comprehensive teacher training.
