1.3 Million+ School Report Cards are Just a Click Away from http://www.schoolreportcards.in

The National University of Educational Planning and Administration has created a comprehensive database on elementary education in India under one of its most prestigious projects, knozn as, District Information System for Education (DISE). The project covers both Primary and Upper Primary schools of all the districts of the country. What is more remarkable about DISE is that it has completely eliminated the time-lag in availability of educational statistics which has come down drastically from 7-8 years to less than a year at the national and only a few months at the district and state levels. DISE is supported by the Ministry of Human Resource Development and UNICEF.

The National University has successfully developed School Report Cards of more than 1.3 million Primary and Upper Primary schools. In addition to quantitative information, the Report Cards also provide qualitative information and a descriptive report about individual schools. And, all that can now be accessed with the Click of a Mouse.

The Report Cards are produced to provide users comprehensive information on all the vital parameters, be it student, teacher or school related variables, yet concise, accurate information about each school in a standard format which is easy to understand and allows meaningful comparisons to be made among schools. We hope that these reports are used in constructive conversations which lead to improved education for all children across the country.
