MCD launches EduLife 2.0 portal to digitise management of 1,500 Delhi schools
The Municipal Corporation of Delhi has launched the EduLife 2.0 portal to digitize administrative and academic processes across 1,500 primary schools. The platform aims to reduce paperwork for teachers while providing parents with tools to track student progress and school activities.
Why it matters
Digitizing school administration in large public systems can significantly improve operational efficiency, transparency, and parental involvement in public education.
The Municipal Corporation of Delhi (MCD) on Tuesday launched EduLife 2.0, a portal to digitise student records, academic planning, school administration and parent engagement across its more than 1,500 primary schools.
The portal, launched by Delhi Mayor Pravesh Wahi, is intended to centralise data from MCD schools, enabling education officials to access information directly instead of repeatedly seeking reports from schools for Right to Information (RTI) applications, House and parliamentary questions, and policy planning.
According to the Education Department, a significant part of its manpower has traditionally been engaged in compiling such data from schools. Under the new system, information will be updated periodically on the portal, allowing officials to retrieve records directly and reducing the administrative burden on schools.
