e-Shikshakosh

Built by Bihar Education Project Council (BEPC), it combines attendance, inspections, Mid‑Day Meal reporting and leave workflows in one place. Its standout appeal is selfie‑based attendance that helps reduce proxy and improves accountability for staff. When you download e‑Shikshakosh, headmasters, teachers and officials get practical tools aligned with Bihar Education Department programs. Below is a quick look at what users can expect.

• Selfie‑based teacher attendance with student records on the same screen.
• Guided inspection checklists for BEST+, DIVYA and KGBV program compliance.
• Nearby government school search by name or location for quick oversight.
• Leave submission and status updates for headmasters and teaching staff.
• Daily Mid‑Day Meal entry and monitoring to track distribution and compliance.

Selfie‑based attendance for teachers and students

The e‑Shikshakosh app supports selfie‑based teacher attendance and student roll calls from the same screen. Teachers capture a selfie to mark presence, which discourages proxy and creates a clear record for school leadership. Student attendance can be recorded right after, keeping daily routines in one place. This works best with stable internet and accurate time/location settings, as poor connectivity may delay syncing. Since selfies involve personal data, users should stay mindful of school policies and only capture photos in appropriate settings.

Program‑specific inspections: BEST+, DIVYA, KGBV

The e‑Shikshakosh app provides guided checklists and forms for inspections under BEST+, DIVYA and KGBV. Officials choose the relevant program and fill out details during school visits, which helps standardize oversight across government schools. A typical visit might include going item by item through the checklist and noting observations so follow‑up actions are clear. The quality of inspection data depends on careful entry, so cross‑checking with school records is a practical way to maintain accuracy.

Nearby government schools search

The e‑Shikshakosh app lets users search and view nearby government schools by name or location. This is useful when traveling between blocks or clusters and needing quick access to school information for support or inspection planning. Users can find the closest school, review basic details, and decide where to go next without switching tools. Location features rely on GPS and a steady connection, so turning on location services and good network coverage will improve results.

Mid‑Day Meal reporting and monitoring

The e‑Shikshakosh app streamlines daily Mid‑Day Meal (MDM) entry and monitoring to track meal distribution and compliance. Staff enter the day’s meal details, which helps schools and officials keep a consistent record over time. When records are available in one place, it becomes easier to spot gaps or trends and address them promptly. MDM reporting is a daily routine, so completing entries before the end of the school day and ensuring data is saved with a stable connection can prevent missed updates.

Role‑based access for Teachers, Schools and Officials

The e‑Shikshakosh app offers role‑based access so Teachers, School users and Officials see the forms and dashboards relevant to their tasks. This keeps the interface focused, reducing clutter and helping each user get to the right module faster. A headmaster might focus on attendance, leave and MDM, while officials prioritize inspections and nearby school lists. The app is designed specifically for the Bihar government education ecosystem and is not intended for general public use.
