Ltd (AZR, estb.2002), Bangalore, released its 18th consecutive annual EducationWorld India School Rankings (EWISR) 2024-25. A sample database of 8,700 respondents, including 5,150 parents and 3,550 education professionals across 34 cities in India, was surveyed to rate the country’s Top 4,000 schools on 14 parameters of educational excellence, making it the world’s largest annual school rankings survey.
The survey rates and ranks the country’s Top 4,000 schools in 4 main and 23 sub-categories — Day: Co-ed, Boys and Girls, Day-cum-boarding; Boarding: Co-ed, Girls and Boys; International: Day, Day-cum-boarding and fully Residential. It also rates and ranks India’s best Government Day and Boarding schools, as well as Special Needs and Philanthropy Schools. The EWISR 2024-25 is the most comprehensive, in-depth and extensive schools ranking survey worldwide.
To create a level playing field for newly promoted schools, Vintage Legacy schools (90 years and above vintage) have been separately ranked in each sub-category. Continuing with another innovation introduced in 2022, in cases where two or more schools are ranked #1, we have awarded a 1+ rank to institutions that have recently recorded extraordinary achievement under EWISR or other parameters of primary-secondary education.

“The uniqueness of EWISR, introduced in 2007, is that institutional rankings are not merely based on academic reputation as is normative in Western countries but based on scores awarded under 14 parameters of school education excellence. Moreover, schools are grouped in discrete categories to eliminate apples and oranges type comparisons. Another special feature of the annual EWISR is that it is a national survey based on field interviews with over 8,700 knowledgeable respondents, not on the opinions of a handful selected jurors. I am pleased to say that since it was introduced in 2007, EWISR has evolved into the largest, deepest and most comprehensive primary-secondary schools rating and rankings survey worldwide,” says DilipThakore, Founder-editor of EducationWorld.
“For EWISR 2024-25, a database of 8,700 sample respondents in 34 cities were asked to rate schools they were familiar with. Schools unfamiliar to at least 20 respondents were eliminated from the rankings. Respondents awarded scores of up to 100 on 14 parameters of educational excellence and up to 200 for ‘teacher competence,’ based on criteria developed by EducationWorld over the past 17 years.” says Shubra Mishra, Promoter-Director of AZ Research Partners whose field research personnel conducted the survey over three months (May-July).
The 14 parameters of education excellence on which the schools were evaluated are:
* Academic Reputation
* Competence of Faculty
* Individual Attention to Students
* Leadership/Management Quality
* Curriculum and pedagogy (hybrid learning readiness)
* Co-curricular Education
* Sports Education
* Community Service
* Parental Involvement
* Teacher Welfare and Development
* Value for Money
* Mental and Emotional Well-being Services
* Infrastructure Provision
* Leadership/management quality
* All legacy schools are also assessed under a 15th — Quality of alumni — parameter
