UNESCO-linked research initiative to unveil non-commercial, public-data-based ranking shortly
CCLP Worldwide – Education Charter International – in collaboration with the UNESCO Club of Education Charter, is preparing to announce its Top 25 International Schools in India for the academic year 2025–26.
The forthcoming ranking is the result of a comprehensive, independent research exercise that evaluates India’s leading international schools across eight globally aligned parameters, including academic excellence, teaching quality, infrastructure, governance, co-curricular innovation, international exposure, community impact and digital readiness.
Unlike commercial rankings that rely on paid participation or self-submitted claims, the CCLP Worldwide study is based entirely on public-domain information, such as:
- Official school websites and published academic results
- International curriculum authorisations and accreditations
- Documented campus facilities and co-curricular programmes
- Verified recognitions, awards and media coverage
- Publicly available information on governance, values and community initiatives
“Our objective is not to promote any particular institution, but to promote global standards in education,” said a CCLP Worldwide spokesperson. “This ranking is independent, non-commercial and evidence-based. It is meant to help parents, educators and policymakers see which schools are genuinely aligning with international best practices.”
The Top 25 International Schools in India 2025–26 by CCLP Worldwide include a mix of:
- Urban international day schools in Mumbai, Bengaluru, Delhi-NCR, Hyderabad and Pune
- IB continuum schools offering PYP, MYP and DP
- Iconic residential international schools in hill-station environments
- Select large networks that combine international-style pedagogy with national boards
The final ranked list and school-wise scores will be released shortly, along with a detailed report on emerging trends in international schooling in India. The findings will be published on:
- The official CCLP Worldwide website
- UNESCO Club of Education Charter portals
- Partner education media platforms
Schools and stakeholders interested in the methodology or in submitting factual updates for future editions may contact the CCLP Worldwide secretariat at info@cclpworldwide.com
