School & preschool websites — from admissions to disclosure.

Schools affiliated to CBSE are required, under the Affiliation Bye-Laws, 2018 and subsequent circulars, to maintain a website and to publish a mandatory public disclosure covering general information (affiliation number, school code, address, principal, contact), documents (affiliation letter, society or trust registration, NOC, recognition certificate, building safety, fire safety, water and sanitation, DEO certificate), results and academics (fee structure, annual academic calendar, school management committee, PTA, last three years' board results), and staff and infrastructure (teacher counts, qualifications, campus area, classrooms, labs, library, internet, playground). The exact list is in the Board's circulars and is updated from time to time; check the current circular before publishing.

Neweb's school preset ships a disclosure page structured to that list, with upload slots for each document, a last-updated date, and a reminder each April to review it. The page is linked from the footer of every page as the bye-laws expect. ICSE and state board schools have their own, lighter disclosure expectations, and RTE requires government-recognised private schools to admit 25 percent of entry-level seats from economically weaker sections, which many states ask schools to publish; the same page handles those notices.

Publishing the fee structure by class, with what it includes and the payment schedule, is both expected by parents and required by CBSE disclosure. Neweb presents it as a clean table with a last-updated date. Transport is the next most searched item: routes, stops, timings and the transport fee, which the template presents by route with a map. School hours by section, the academic calendar with holidays, the uniform and book list, and the exam schedule are what current parents visit the site for all year, and a site that serves them well is one the school community actually uses.

Fee payment itself usually runs through the school's ERP or a bank gateway. The site links to that and shows UPI details for small payments such as activity fees. The newsletter included in the plan handles circulars to parents who opted in, which many schools find more reliable than the diary.

School searches combine a board, a locality and a class: "CBSE school in Wakad admission", "ICSE schools near Whitefield", "play school in Gomti Nagar". Neweb builds the site to rank for those combinations with School and Preschool schema, locality mentions on the admissions and transport pages, and a Google Business Profile claimed, verified and synced with the site, with photos of the campus updated each term. Reviews from parents matter and accumulate; a request after the admission process and after the annual day is reasonable and effective.

Multi-branch school groups get a page and profile per campus with shared academics and a group home page. Preschool chains work the same way, with per-centre pages for the "near me" searches that drive their admissions. Both are on the Growth plan, with the Starter plan covering single-campus schools and preschools.
