EducationToday is one of the best magazines in India focussing on the education sector. Being the top education magazine, we also conduct numerous conferences and award ceremonies. Our award ceremonies and conferences are known for being the best educational gathering in the country.
We recently conducted the 11 th National Conference on K-12 Leadership and India School Merit Awards 2023-24 at The Taj, Bangalore Airport on December 11, 2023. The event was a gala ceremony, witnessing the attendance of the top educationists in India all under one roof.
This year, 5 schools from across the country were among the top State Board schools city-wise.
Our mission is to find the best schools in India and encourage them for their efforts. We at EducationToday made a perception-based ranking system for schools, one with utmost transparency. This system includes a thorough analysis of the inputs from the survey forms received, analysis from the survey team, parental votes and special jury inputs. As expected, this was a huge challenge owing to the diverse number of schools in India, all the way from Aanganwadis to the elitist of private institutions, each with countless variations. Some are funded by the centre, others by the state, and still more get direct funding from industrialists, NGOs and the like. Then all the education boards have to be taken into consideration –CBSE, ICSE, IGCSE, IB plus an overwhelming number of state boards.
However, why do we award?
It is our way of finding the best from the list of schools in India. Because, as a parent, we are all capable of affording education to our kids, but ensuring our kids get the best, is a task. Our perception-based ranking system acts as a compass for you, to decide which school to go ahead with as we follow an exhaustive list of parameters to choose the best from the best.
Our parameters include
- ➤ Academic reputation
- ➤ Digital learning advancement
- ➤ Individual Attention to Students
- ➤ Future Proof Learning Infrastructure
- ➤ Student Advancement & Mentoring
- ➤ Leadership in Quality Management
- ➤ Teacher’s Advancement & Well-being
- ➤ Psychological well-being of Students

- ➤ Innovative Teaching
- ➤ Community Service
- ➤ Integrated Learning
Over 500 plus schools from all over India made the cut and these names were then passed onto the next stage where they were vetted by our jury, educational experts, a team of analysts, and, of course, parents. With the help of their combined inputs, we handpicked the schools that truly deserved to be on our top 20 lists. We also decided to take social media into account (Facebook, LinkedIn, Google) in addition to our portal (educationtoday.co), as it receives over 70,000 hits per day.
