Each school has been provided with a code number, which is expected to help in finding a school.
The website is being managed by the National University of Educational Planning and Administration (NUEPA) to identify the status of elementary education in India under its project District Information System for Education (DISE).
It has been an arduous effort on the part of the schools concerned, the district education officials and the designated officials under the Human Resources Development Department (HRD) to go through the process of compilation of data on a data collection form (DCF), Bihar Education Project (BEP)'s Programme Officer Ravishankar Prasad Singh told PTI here.
Vouching for authenticity of data regarding schools, he said everybody involved in the task was repeatedly asked to verify details of their DCFs and issue a certificate owning the facts before the HRD officials submitted the report to the union HRD ministry prior to its uploading on the website.
After putting up information about government-aided schools, Bihar soon will put the information related to the private primary/upper primary schools on the website as mandated under the Right to Education ACT (REA), the BEP Programme Officer said.
Although only 10 per cent students in the age group of 6-14 were enrolled in private schools, the data gathered from these schools will be useful in planning further improvement in infrastructure, environment and quality of education in government schools and also to the fill gap between government and private schools, Singh said.
The BEP official said the available data about the government schools will also be used for consistent improvement in the quality of education of the students and help them attain excellence in their later academic career.
