NABET score 2025: Adani Vidya Mandir Ahmedabad among top schools in country
This score is as per the latest rating by the National Accreditation Board for Education and Training (NABET) under the Quality Council of India (QCI).
Earlier in 2020, AVMA became the first cost-free school in the country to get accredited by NABET under QCI.
The latest accomplishment is in line with Adani Foundation's mission to provide inclusive, high-quality education while fostering holistic development.
Adani Vidya Mandir schools serve over 3,000 students through four campuses: Ahmedabad and Bhadreshwar in Gujarat, Surguja in Chhattisgarh and Krishnapatnam in Andhra Pradesh.
'The CBSE Grade XII results are the icing on the NABET cake. AVMA recorded a stellar 100 per cent pass rate, with all 95 candidates securing first division. Alvina Roy and Jay Bavaskar scored 97.6 per cent each in Humanities and Science stream, respectively,' according to AVMA.
In February, AVMA was adjudged the 'National Winner' in the category of 'School for Underprivileged/Right to Education (RTE) Implementation' and received the 'Samagra Shiksha Award' from Dr Sukanata Majumdar, Minister of State for Education.
AVMA integrates the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which were adopted by the United Nations in 2015, into its curriculum, ensuring a global perspective in its pedagogical approach.
The school also collaborates with esteemed organisations such as United Nations International Children's Emergency Fund (UNICEF), Gujarat Science Centre and National Institute of Education (NIE) Singapore, focusing on developing STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) curricula tailored specifically to the Indian context over the past three years.
Among AVMA's noteworthy recognitions are the International Green School Award by Green Mentors, presented at Cornell University, New York, US; and its certification as a 'Kindness School' by Random Acts of Kindness.
These accolades epitomise the school's dedication to environmental stewardship and fostering kindness as integral aspects of education.

PCMC chief calls for use of AI, digital literacy in schools
Pimpri-Chinchwad Municipal Corporation (PCMC) Commissioner Shekhar Singh on Wednesday said that civic schools must 'raise the bar' and introduce students to artificial intelligence (AI). Singh was speaking at a city-wide dialogue session with principals and teachers, organised by PCMC's Education Department at Ramkrishna More Auditorium, Chinchwad. The session saw participation from school heads, teachers, education department officials, and representatives from partner organisations such as ZEP Foundation. 'While the achievements of our students in the past academic year are commendable and a matter of pride for all of us, we must now raise the bar. It is time to actively plan for stronger outcomes in competitive exams and ensure our students are future-ready,' the civic commissioner said. He added that PCMC schools have seen remarkable progress through the use of technology in education, and the next step would be to introduce students to artificial intelligence (AI) and digital literacy. Referring to initiatives like Spandan, QCI assessment, and Bharat Darshan, Singh highlighted how such programmes have contributed positively to student learning outcomes and holistic growth. 'We are committed not just to academic excellence but to nurturing well-rounded individuals. Through school-based activities, our aim is to build character and life skills among students. All teachers and principals must ensure 100% implementation of educational initiatives in the current academic year,' Singh emphasised. Additional Commissioner Pradip Jambhale Patil also addressed the gathering, urging all schools to work towards a 100 per pass rate in the SSC board exams this year. He assured full support from the municipal corporation, including timely provision of sports teachers, skill training materials, and resolution of any resource gaps. As a mark of recognition, PCMC felicitated 28 students from its schools who scored above 90% in the 2024-25 Class 10 exams. Each student received a cash award of Rs 1 lakh from Commissioner Singh and Additional Commissioner Jambhale Patil.

Drips To ‘Stay Focused' & More: All About Gao Kao, World's Toughest Exam — 10x Harder Than...
Gao Kao (National College Entrance Examination) is compulsory for any final-year high school student aiming to get into a Chinese university. Every June, life in China nearly comes to a standstill as millions of students appear for the Gao Kao, the national college entrance exam. Known to be one of the toughest exams in the world, it can shape a student's entire future. This year, over 13.35 million students appeared for Gao Kao, China's national college entrance exam, slightly fewer than the 13.42 million who took it last year. The scale of Gao Kao is staggering. By comparison, in India last year, around 16.9 lakh students appeared for the CBSE Class 12 exams, and approximately 12.58 lakh took the JEE Mains. This means the number of Gao Kao candidates is nearly ten times higher than those sitting for India's most competitive exams. What Is Gao Kao? The Gao Kao is China's national-level entrance test for college admissions. It is compulsory for any final-year high school student aiming to get into a Chinese university. Students have to list their preferred colleges before the exam. If they do not meet a college's required score, they are automatically considered for the next one on their list. There is no age limit or restriction on how many times one can attempt the exam. The test is spread over two to three days and lasts about nine hours in total. If a student doesn't qualify for any of the universities they listed, they must appear for the exam again in the following academic year. What Does The Exam Include? The paper's structure can differ across provinces, but usually it includes Chinese literature, Mathematics and a foreign language (mostly English). Students from science backgrounds take additional papers in Physics, Chemistry and Biology, while arts students write tests in History, Politics and Geography. Some candidates even opt for other foreign languages like French, German, Japanese, Russian or Spanish. The test combines multiple-choice and essay-style questions. The scores are combined into one final total. This score determines the student's eligibility for various universities. How Far Students Go To Prepare For Gao Kao The pressure surrounding Gao Kao is so intense that students are willing to go to extreme lengths to stay prepared. A recent Instagram video shows how some students are seen spending their entire days and nights inside classrooms. Meals are passed through school gates as they rarely leave the premises. In many schools, 12-hour study sessions are routine. They just get one day off a week, yet some students use that time to study even more. Some even take IV drips to stay alert, while female students take medication to delay their periods until the exam gets over. These intense scenes show how serious the exam is and how much students are willing to sacrifice for it. Some cities impose special traffic rules and halt construction near test sites to maintain silence. Students are offered free metro rides and taxi services to reach centres on time. At some centres, AI-powered cameras are installed to catch anything unusual and prevent cheating. Drones and other surveillance tools are also used. Criticism While Gao Kao is seen as a fair way to select students for university, it has also faced criticism. Many students deal with high levels of stress, anxiety and pressure while preparing for the exam. In many families, the exam decides not just a student's education but also their career and social status. Students from lower-income backgrounds often struggle more as they may not afford private coaching or extra classes. Some experts also say the exam focuses more on memorising information rather than overall learning or practical skills. One case that recently caught attention was that of Xiaokai, a student from Hunan province who scored 575 out of 750 in the exam. While this is a good score, his parents were unhappy because it may not qualify him for entry into one of China's prestigious '985" universities, a network of 39 elite institutions known for their academic excellence and competitive admissions. They cut off his financial support and locked him out of the house. Xiaokai later approached local media for help. He is now waiting for his final admission results.

Science, Maths may get a two-level system in Classes 11-12: CBSE
In a move that could reshape senior secondary education, the Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE) is preparing to roll out a two-tier system for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) subjects for students in Classes 11 and plan as learned by Sunday Express is an extension of the model already introduced in Classes 9 and 10, where science is being taught at two levels, basic and standard, to accommodate different student new proposal is part of the wider education reforms under the National Education Policy (NEP) 2020, which emphasises flexibility, relevance, and multidisciplinary learning.A STEP TOWARDS FLEXIBILITY The main idea behind the two-tier model is to give students the option to study STEM subjects at different levels of difficulty, depending on their career instance, a student aspiring to pursue engineering might opt for the advanced version of physics or mathematics, while another interested in humanities or commerce could choose a simpler version that covers the basics without going too deep into technical a structure allows for a more tailored learning experience. It also seeks to reduce stress among students who are often compelled to take subjects at a level that doesn't match their interest or future FROM THE EARLIER MODELCBSE has already experimented with this model in the past. In Class 10 mathematics, students have been allowed to pick between standard and basic levels during board board noted that this helped students who were not planning to continue maths in higher classes but still wanted to pass with confidence.A similar approach is now being considered for science and maths in Classes 11 and IT COULD MEAN FOR SCHOOLSIf approved, this change would require adjustments in school teaching methods, resources, and training. Schools may have to schedule separate classes for the two levels and ensure that teachers are equipped to deliver both assessments, and board exam patterns would also need to be revised a system where one-size-fits-all often leads to undue pressure, CBSE's plan offers a chance to make science and maths more accessible, without lowering the bar.- Ends
