6. How is School Directory different from School Profile Module?

School Directory shows basic registration information (name, address, management type, UDISE code), which users use mainly for search and administrative purposes. School Profile Module is where schools enter detailed infrastructure, enrollment, and facilities data each year.

A Block MIS Coordinator can create new school user accounts, reset passwords for schools in their block, assign roles, and manage data entry access. They serve as the main support contact for schools having login problems.

9. Can a school be deleted from the UDISE directory?

The system cannot simply delete a school. If a school has closed or merged with another, you must properly mark it as "Closed" or "Merged" through the correct procedure. District officers do this, not schools themselves.
