Indian School education should teach sports, music,dance, arts as subjects

Indian school should have Primary education of 7 years, means Junor KG, Senior KG and std 1 to 5 common for all students. from standard VI, student will learn subjects of their choices only. Indian School education should teach sports ( KHEL), music (SANGEET),dance (NITRAYA), arts (Paintings, photography etc.), Dramatics ( NAATAYA KALA) as subjects.
Indian school is only teaching physics, chemistry, biology, social science, Mathematics and languages. Again languages do not carry marks in merit marks list for entrance examination to higher education and employment.

Then how can one learn games like cricket, hockey, football, kabbadi, tennis, badminton etc. and got to the national and international level.
Then how can one learn musical instruments and vocal music and raagaas, yogaas..Then how can one learn Bharatnatyam, Kaththak, Kuchupudi, folk dances etc.
Time has come for disruption in Indian school pedagogy. Give basic minimum mathematics and languages knowledge from LKG, SKG, 1 to 5 std, that is 7 years of primary education.
From standard 6 onwards let students pick up around 8 to 10 different subjects of their choice, which includes sports and performing arts also. No compulsory subjects. Let them decide what they want to learn and excel in the field. If school has facilities then they can learn from school. If coaching center or Tuition classes have facility, they can learn from there. They can learn on their own at home also.
Different level of 5 examination to be finalised at national level by experts of those field. National level examination are conducted twice in a year for all subjects for all levels in all the district capital centres. Education Exam Authority of India can be established. Every level carries 20 marks/points. One can achieve mastery by clearing all 5 exams to become professional in that subject.
I request readers view on this.
