C-fore (Centre for forecasting and Research) is a Delhi-based market research agency established in 2000, conducting surveys of the leading educational institutions in the country.

The survey is done on the basis of perceptual polls, a globally established process, in which an intelligently weighted base of knowledgeable respondents is quizzed on their assessment of institutions across various parameters.

These parameters are teacher welfare and development, Competence of faculty, Academic reputation, Cocurricular education, Sports education, life skills education and Conflict management, Individual attention to students, leadership management quality, Safety and hygiene, Infrastructure provision, Internationlism, Pastrol care, Value for money  and Community service.

For each parameter each school was awarded scores out of maximum 100 except for the component of Competence of faculty, which is given a weightage of 200. The scores thus awarded under each parameter are totalled to arrive at the annual ranking of schools.

Education World India School Rankings 2015 awards were given away at a glittering ceremony at Vivanta by Taj, Dwarka in New Delhi recently. The School Principal Parshant Vashishta received the award.
