UDISE Cell
The UDISE (Unified District Information System for Education) Cell at Asorphi Academy Higher Secondary School plays a vital role in maintaining accurate, timely, and comprehensive data related to the school’s academic and administrative functioning. The cell operates in coordination with the state education department to ensure that all required information is systematically collected, verified, and uploaded to the national UDISE+ portal.
Objectives of the UDISE Cell
- To maintain an up-to-date database of the school’s infrastructure, enrollment, staff, and academic performance.
- To ensure accurate and transparent reporting for government planning, policy-making, and resource allocation.
- To support the school in meeting compliance requirements set by the education authorities.
Key Functions
- Data Collection and Compilation – The cell gathers data from various departments such as academics, administration, accounts, infrastructure, and student records. This includes information on enrollment, attendance, teaching and non-teaching staff, facilities, classroom resources, and examination results.
- Data Verification and Validation – Collected data is cross-checked for accuracy and completeness. The UDISE Cell works with department heads and class teachers to correct discrepancies and ensure that all information reflects the true status of the school.
- Online Data Entry and Submission – Verified information is uploaded to the official UDISE+ portal within the timelines specified by the education department. The cell ensures compliance with all guidelines issued by the District and State UDISE authorities.

The cell ensures that all official communications, training updates, and directives are implemented effectively.
