About SchoolsPedia
Helping parents, students, and researchers find verified school details, UDISE codes, and facilities across India.
Our Mission
We started SchoolsPedia with a simple goal: to make it easy for anyone in India to find clear, reliable information about schools. Finding the right school or verifying a UDISE code shouldn't involve scrolling through complex government databases. By organizing records for over 16,53,159 schools, we help you find what you need in just a few clicks.
Where Does Our Data Come From?
Our school details are sourced directly from the Unified District Information System for Education Plus (UDISE+), which is maintained by the Department of School Education & Literacy, Ministry of Education, Government of India.
To make this information more helpful, we combine school profiles with local literacy rates and population numbers from the official Census of India. We do not edit, change, or manipulate any school details. We simply organize public records so they are easy to search and read.
Who is SchoolsPedia for?
- Parents: Who want to check school classes, co-education setups, or syllabus board affiliations (CBSE, ICSE, NIOS, or State Boards) in their local area.
- Students:Who need to quickly look up their school's official 11-digit UDISE code for scholarship portals (like the National Scholarship Portal) or board exam forms.
- Researchers & NGOs: Who are looking at regional education facilities, gender ratios, or basic school amenities (like toilets and drinking water) in rural blocks.
