Nagaland successfully conducted the PARAKH Rashtriya Sarvekshan 2024, formerly known as the National Achievement Survey (NAS), on December 4, 2024, to assess learning outcomes and the overall health of education in the state. The survey report will reflect the efficacy of school interventions and determine the Performance Grading Index (PGI) of the state in education. The survey was conducted by PARAKH, NCERT New Delhi, and CBSE at the national level. In the state, Samagra Shiksha, along with SCERT, facilitated the survey.
The survey was closely monitored by observers from the Ministry of Education, Government of India, and CBSE New Delhi. The Commissioner & Secretary of School Education & SCERT, the State Mission Director of Samagra Shiksha Nagaland, the Director of SCERT Nagaland, and the Chairperson of NBSE, supported by state monitoring teams comprising officials from SCERT, the Directorate of School Education, NBSE, and Samagra Shiksha, extended their assistance. These teams worked in collaboration with District Level Coordinators (DLCs), officials from the District Mission Authority (DMA), and EBRCs to ensure the survey was conducted in accordance with PARAKH guidelines.
A total of 22,820 students from grades 3, 6, and 9, representing 732 sample schools from government, private, and central schools across Nagaland, participated in the PARAKH Survey 2024.
