Abstract	This paper explores the integration of experiential learning and sustainability practices in the Work Education curriculum for middle school students. Emphasizing hands-on activities such as electricity circuit building, block printing, fabric upcycling, and medicinal plant exploration, the study demonstrates how practical engagement enhances student creativity, vocational skills, environmental awareness, and problem-solving abilities. Observations from classroom implementation, student projects, and inter-school competitions highlight the efficacy of competency-based pedagogy aligned with NEP 2020. The findings indicate that integrating skill-based, eco-conscious, and research-oriented approaches in Work Education can transform it into a dynamic platform for holistic student development.
