However, the education ministry has said that as PGI 2.0 is an upgraded version, it cannot be compared to the scores of the past years, beginning 2017 when it began.
Educationists pointed out that Maharashtra has remained consistent in the PGI from 2017 onwards. “A number of schools do not update their data on the various education portals. As a result the real picture is not clear,” said the principal of a city school. At least 69 of the 74 indicators are automatically filled. “If schools do not update their data that includes digital education, infrastructure, and dropout rate, the scores can be misleading,” the principal said.
The PGI ratings are based on the 2021-22 data available on UDISE+ and National Ach-ievement Survey, 2021 portals. Final certification of the filled data can be done even after the release of the report.
The PGI 2.0 revamped to include new indicators, including digital education, was released by the education ministry. The 2020-21 PGI left out digital education. The weightage given to Governance Pro-cesses – 340 of 1,000 points – has been reduced in PGI 2.0, following criticism by educationists. It is now 84 points.
