COVER STORY EW Day Schools Survey 2010 Day Schools: Regional league tables HILE A SCHOOL’S RATINGS AND RANK IN THE NATIONAL Celebrations at The Shri Ram, Delhi: third time topper league tables is important, for day schools in Wparticular, regional league tables are arguably more important because competition tends to be more intensive between institutions in the neighbourhood than with schools far away. Moreover respondents who constitute the sample base for perceptual surveys tend to be more knowledgeable about schools in their own regions than about institutions further afield. Therefore it’s pertinent to bear in mind that day schools tend to have parochial, rather than national reputations and that regional ratings and ranking are perhaps more accurate indicators of the quality of education dispensed by them. Consequently, the EW-C fore survey of India’s most respected day schools also offers readers regional league tables.
