Mumbai: The Free Press Journal today released the findings of the FPJ Mumbai Schools Survey 2025, the third edition of the city’s most transparent and merit-based assessment of school performance.
Covering institutions across Mumbai, Thane and Navi Mumbai, this year’s survey placed a sharp spotlight on how schools are adapting to rapid technological shifts. One of the important parameters reviewed was Excellence in Digital Learning & Technology Adoption.
The survey reveals that almost 90% of schools have adopted digital tools and platforms; hence, it can be stated that the basic adoption of technology has now become a standard across most institutions. Smartboards, classroom devices, online learning portals, and tech-enabled assessments are being widely used.
But the findings also point to a larger trend: while infrastructure is in place, deep integration into teaching, pedagogy and school-wide decision-making remains limited. And for most of these schools, technology still acts as an add-on rather than a transformative agent to reshape how students learn or how teachers teach.
The survey noted that the journey toward innovative, data-driven and personalised digital learning models is underway but still evolving. The transition from “using technology” to “using technology meaningfully” remains the next step for most schools.
