CBSE launches school performance report cards, but what good is accountability without transparency?

The Central Board of Secondary Education’s (CBSE) new School Academic Performance Report Card for 2024–25 marks a major shift toward data-driven education. Offering subject-wise, gender-based, and holistic performance insights, it promises smarter academic planning. However, by keeping these reports confidential, CBSE risks diluting transparency, leaving parents unable to assess schools’ quality and accountability.
