In alignment with the vision of Atma-vishwas for Atmanirbhar Bharat, India’s largest School Edtech company LEAD today announced the launch of India’s first Student Confidence Index, a study that assesses Confidence levels of school-going students across regions, cities, demographics and various other parameters. Developed in collaboration with Tata Institute of Social Sciences, LEAD’s Index reveals several powerful insights into Student Confidence. While India stands at a Confidence level of 75 on a scale of 100, 36% of students have indicated top-bracket Confidence levels (81-100).
A 25-point gap between Hyderabad at an index score of 87 and Ambala with an index score of 62 suggests that students in India’s metros continue to be more confident than their peers in non-metros. Interestingly, LEAD students have outperformed their peers in non-metros across all Confidence-building attributes.
Commenting on the Index, LEAD Co-founder and CEO Sumeet Mehta said, “This is an annual survey and will help us monitor the confidence level of our students and help us make focused interventions through our education programs.”
“We are delighted to partner with LEAD in developing India’s first Student Confidence Index'' said Dr. Rahul S, Assistant Professor, LMRF, SMLS, Tata Institute of Social Sciences.
India's first Student Confidence Index surveyed 2800+ students across Classes 6–10 in 6 metros, 6 non-metros, and 3 Tier 2/3 cities. The study was administered by market research and survey company Borderless Access.
