Mumbai: The Free Press Journal today announced the results of the FPJ Mumbai Schools Survey 2025, the third edition of the city’s most trusted, merit-based assessment of schools across Mumbai, Thane, and
Navi Mumbai. Among its many parameters, the category ‘Best in Student Health, Nutrition and Well-being’ stands out for addressing an aspect of schooling that is increasingly vital, the physical, emotional, and nutritional wellness of students.
This year's findings of the survey showcase encouraging participation across the board. All the surveyed schools (100%) have systems in place for the well-being of students, and over 90% regularly conduct health sessions with the involvement of parents, reflecting an all-round awareness of the importance of health and mental balance in a child's development.
Yet, the study also shows that while these frameworks are strongly grounded, too many schools rely on routine and compliance-driven models rather than proactive or data-led wellness strategies. In other words, while student health and nutrition have made it firmly onto the agenda, there is room to move from structured implementation toward preventive and evidence-based intervention.
