NCF 2005 argues that using conflict as a pedagogic strategy enables children to:
ADeal with conflict and grasp its role
BAvoid all forms of classroom disagreement
CSuppress emotional reactions in class
DPick the single correct position quickly
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. Deal with conflict and grasp its role
1. NCF 2005 §2.4.5 reads: 'To use conflict as a pedagogic strategy is to enable children to deal with conflict and facilitate awareness of its nature and its role in their lives.'
2. The framework treats conflict as inescapable in children's lives and worthy of moral assessment, not suppression.
3. The other options describe avoidance, suppression or premature closure — all rejected by critical pedagogy.
