In India, students studying the same curriculum until they enter the college is a

long standing tradition and I believe it is an advantageous arrangement for a

number of reasons. If students from all over the country study the same curriculum
then they all can be assumed to be on equal footing while entering the college, the
only differentiator would be the personal effort each student had put in his
studies prior to entering the college. This makes it significantly easier for
college instructors to develop lesson plans for their class because they have a
general idea of their class's knowledge level. For example, if a uniform curriculum
was not in place, then students entering in the college may or may not have studied
Calculus at school, this would make the task tricky for a Physics instructor,
because he wouldn't be able to use concepts of Calculus used in Physics without
alienating a chunk of the class which does not have prior knowledge of Calculus.

Other advantages that a uniform curriculum provides are simplified teachers'

training, and ease of mobility for both students and teachers. When the country has
a uniform curriculum, the teachers' training modules can be standardized across the
country, and because the entire population of the teachers is receiving the same
training and putting it to use in similar contexts, it allows for rapidly
recognizing the shortcomings in training and/or implementation, whereas if the
curriculum was not standaradized, then each teacher would be implementing their
training in slightly different setting, for which they may or may not were trained
for.

When a country has the same national curriculum, it makes it easier if not seamless
for students and teachers to move to different places to live, and work
respectively, because they can pick up from where they left in their previous place
of enrollment/employment. Whereas, if the curriculum followed was different in
different parts of the country, a student might face difficulties because the
knowledge they gained from their previous school may be more or less than their
peers at the new place. Teachers can be expected to face less difficulty because
they are subject matter experts, but still, if the curriculum was standardized then
their onboarding at the new place of employment would be relatively seamless.

Therefore, I see great advantages in having the same national curriculum.
