India jumped five ranks in the Worldwide Education for the Future Index (WEFFI) 2019 according to a report published by The Economist Intelligence Unit. Countries are ranked on the basis of their ability to equip students with skill-based education “in areas such as critical thinking, problem-solving, and leadership as well as digital and technical skills.”
“Among the world’s largest economies, the US, UK, France and Russia all fell back in the index, while China, India and Indonesia took steps forward,” the report said. India ranked 35th with a total score of 53 based on 3 categories: policy environment, teaching environment and overall socio-economic environment. According to the report, India made a particular stride in policy environment with the emergence of new national education policy in early 2019



It’s encouraging to see India rise five places to 35th in the Worldwide Education for the Future Index 2019. The focus on critical thinking, problem-solving, leadership, and digital skills shows how education continues to evolve. When I get stressed with my studies, as a joke I say, “Take My Online Calculus class”—sometimes a little humor makes a busy academic routine feel lighter!
India’s progress in the Worldwide Education for the Future Index is encouraging, especially with its growing focus on critical thinking, digital skills, and a stronger education policy environment. As education becomes increasingly global, professional language support such as NAATI Translation Services can also help students and institutions communicate effectively across international education systems.
This is encouraging news and reflects India's growing focus on preparing students with future-ready skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, and digital literacy. Strong education policies are essential for building a competitive workforce in a global economy. As international collaboration continues to grow, Interpreting Services in Australia also play an important role in helping students, educators, and professionals from diverse linguistic backgrounds communicate effectively and access educational opportunities. Great update!
It's encouraging to see India's progress in emphasizing skills like critical thinking, problem-solving, and digital literacy. Rankings are just one measure, but continued investment in quality education can make a lasting difference.

It's encouraging to see India making progress in an index that values critical thinking, problem-solving, and future-ready skills. Achievements like this highlight the importance of continuously improving education systems and creating more opportunities for learners.
