[From 2017-18 to 2020-21]
Embedded Files
The Performance Grading Index (PGI) is a tool to provide insights on the status of school education in States and UTs including key levers that drive their performance and critical areas for improvement.
Department of School Education and Literacy (DoSEL), Ministry of Education (MoE) designed the PGI to catalyse transformational change in the field of school education and released reports for the reference year with effect from 2017-18.
Methodology
The architecture of the PGI emanates from the rationale that ensuring an efficient, inclusive and equitable school education system is contingent upon the constant monitoring of an interconnected matrix of inputs, outputs and outcomes, and the development of a quick response system for course correction.
The PGI is structured in two categories and comprises 70 indicators in aggregate with a total weightage of 1000.
Category 1 - Outcomes
Learning Outcome & Quality
Access
Infrastructure & Facilities
Equity
Category 2 - Governance & Management
Governance processes
The information on the indicators are drawn from data available with the DoSEL from the Unified District Information System for Education (UDISE), National Achievement Survey (NAS), Mid Day Meal (PM-POSHAN), Public Financial Management System (PFMS) and the information uploaded by the States and UTs on the PGI Shagun portal of DoSEL.
Each of the 70 indicators assigned a weightage of either 10 or 20 points. The States and UTs is being assessed every year on the basis of their performance against the benchmark for each indicator.
