The ARISE Excellence Awards, organized in collaboration with FICCI, recognize schools that exemplify excellence in education and holistic development. These awards celebrate institutions that have pioneered innovative pedagogies, fostered future-ready skills, and demonstrated an unwavering commitment to academic and co-curricular excellence.

Honoring schools that go beyond conventional learning, the awards spotlight exemplary contributions in areas such as experiential learning, digital transformation, teacher development, sports, creative expressions, and global impact leadership. Additionally, the awards recognize schools championing India’s rich knowledge systems and those making significant strides in sustainability through the execution of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) related to health and well-being, clean water and sanitation, and climate action.

Winning an ARISE Excellence Award positions a school as a leader in educational transformation, setting new benchmarks for quality education and inspiring the future of learning.
