Education Portals in India for 2024-25 and 2025-26: Key Details and Deadlines
Introductory Note
The following table outlines key education portals in India for the 2024-25 and 2025-26 academic years, including UDISE+, NSP, SHVR (Harit Green), and others. These portals are vital for schools, colleges, students, teachers, and educational administrators to access resources, apply for scholarships, submit data, and promote sustainability and quality education. This information is intended for all stakeholders—Headmasters (HMs), teachers, students, parents, and authorities—to ensure timely participation and compliance. Accurate data submission and active engagement are crucial for effective education planning, policy-making, and resource allocation. Stakeholders should verify deadlines and requirements on official portals, as extensions or updates may occur.
How Society Can Help
- Quality of Data: Society, including school staff, parents, and communities, ensures accurate data for portals like UDISE+, AISHE, and SHVR, supporting better resource allocation. Communities can verify student details (e.g., Aadhaar for NSP) and report discrepancies to HMs or nodal officers.
- Cluster Resource Centre (CRC): CRCs coordinate between schools and block-level authorities, providing training for UDISE+ and SHVR data entry to ensure accuracy and timeliness.
- Block Resource Centre (BRC): BRCs offer technical and logistical support for UDISE+ and SHVR, assisting with data validation and portal troubleshooting through workshops.
- Block MIS: Block MIS coordinators provide UDISE+ and SHVR login credentials, resolve technical issues, and ensure data quality, guiding HMs on accurate updates.
- District MIS: District MIS coordinators oversee data aggregation for UDISE+ and AISHE, addressing inconsistencies and coordinating with state authorities.
- Other Stakeholders: NGOs, parent-teacher associations, and community leaders can promote NSP scholarships, SWAYAM courses, and SHVR sustainability goals (e.g., water conservation) through awareness and community initiatives.
By collaborating, society enhances data quality, ensures timely submissions, and maximizes the benefits of these portals for educational development.

- Society’s Role: Communities can enhance data quality, support sustainability (SHVR), and promote access to resources (SWAYAM, NDLI). CRCs, BRCs, Block/District MIS provide technical and logistical support.
