Find Best School near me - Skoodos is an AI-powered school search aggregator in India that helps parents find the best private schools for their children based on their preferences and criteria. The platform currently has information about 14,000 private schools in India and allows parents to compare schools based on over 40 criteria, such as school ranking, rating, education board, and infrastructure.
Skoodos also integrates user ratings and provides verified information about the schools. The platform is designed to streamline the school search process for parents and give schools an equal chance to showcase their strengths. Skoodos was founded by Dr. Siya Seth, who saw a need for a platform that could help parents find the right school for their children.
In early 2020, Dr Siya Seth was looking for a school with an International Baccalaureate curriculum and a professional cricket academy for her 16-year-old son. She had been researching for over four months without much success.
Skoodos has partnered with private schools from all boards and curricula (state, CBSE, ICSE, IB, CISCE, NIOS, CIE, matriculation, Montessori) and classes (preschool to Grade 12) Government-aided schools are not present on the platform at present, as that requires permission and authorisation from government bodies at various levels for the verification process.
According to Ezyschooling, a platform for school admissions and events, there are over 15 lakh schools in India, and many more that are not officially registered. So, finding the right school is a big challenge.
“The information we provide through our platform is verified and serves the purpose of a school search engine platform,” she says. “You can find a restaurant, a house, and everything within a few clicks; why not schools?"
The verification process requires the following details: school location, teacher’s background, results of the last three years, scores of the top six students in Grade 11 and 12 (for K-12 schools), years of establishment, achievements, etc.
