Common pitfalls that lead to inaccurate data

Typos in UDISE code, staff code, name or joining date.

A teacher profile left active in old school after transfer (leading to duplication).

Missing or outdated qualification/training records in the Teacher Module.

Leaving the status as “Left School” or “Joined School” unchecked.

Failing to hit the “Submit” or “Certify” button after making changes.
These mistakes might seem small, but they can cause big setbacks.

Step‑by‑step: Ensure accurate data

Here’s a friendly checklist you and your admin can follow:

1. Verify basic teacher profile

Confirm teacher’s name, DOB, staff code, Aadhaar (if applicable) exactly as in official documents.
Check their qualification, training, type of appointment (regular/contract).
Make sure their current school posting and joining date in that school are correctly entered.
According to data‑capture formats, all these fields are mandatory.

2. Check school posting & status

If a teacher moved schools: ensure the old school’s record shows them as “Left” with the correct date, and the new school shows “Joined”.
Verify the school’s UDISE+ code is accurate for both old & new postings.
Make sure only one profile of that teacher exists in the Teacher Module across all schools—they must not appear in two places.

3. Update and save any changes

Log into the UDISE+ Teacher Module with school credentials.
Go to “Edit Staff Details” (or equivalent) and update any fields that are wrong.
After updating, Save the changes and then click Submit/Certify so the updates are locked in.
Let your MIS/block coordinator know in case certain changes need district‐level approval.

4. Run a quick audit at the end of data entry

Look at the staff list: tuition duplicates? missing teachers? wrong statuses?
Ask a colleague to cross‑check one random set of teacher records to spot hidden errors.
Check for missing required fields—because many mandatory fields, if blank, delay verification.
After everything looks fine, print or export the list and save a screenshot for your records.

5. Stay updated and repeat regularly

Every time there’s a transfer, joining, new qualification or role change – update the Teacher Module immediately, don’t wait.
At the start of each academic year (or data cycle) check the Teacher Module again to catch any missed changes.
Monitor any communications from state/district MIS about deadlines for UDISE+ data entry.
