1 COVER STORY EW Day Schools Survey Parameters of Excellence: India s Top 10 Day Schools TO CONSTITUTE THE EW SCHOOLS SURVEY LEAGUE tables of nationally and regionally ranked schools, 250 schools short-listed by EducationWorld were assessed by a carefully constituted respondents base comprising parents, principals, teachers and educationists across 12 parameters or attributes. On the reasoning that there is more to education than academic or scholastic excellence (on which conventional league tables published abroad are based), 2,026 respondents across the country were asked to rate schools on 12 parameters academic reputation, co-curricular education, sports education, faculty competence, individual attention to students, value for money, leadership/management quality, parental involvement, infrastructure provision, quality of alumni, integrity/honesty and transparency in admissions. The ratings awarded under each of these dozen parameters were then aggregated to rank India s most respected schools according to middle class parental and academic perceptions.
