It depend on nature of information sought. However, if the information is sought directly from private school, the school can deny the same but if any information regarding implementation of any policy, rule or provision of law of education department is sought through the Education Department and in pursuance of said request, the department asks said information from school, the school is bound to provide.

You are not covered under RTI act. You need not reply to any RTI applications.
But, you are liable to give all the information to the Education department. Any body can obtain that information from the education department only, not directly from you.

The question is whether this private school covers under RTI Act and is it mandatory to disclose the information sought for as per the provisions of RTI Act.
Your school is a private school and it is not covered under RTI Act. No provisions of RTI Act are applicable to your school.

RTI applies only on Government departments and companies/organizations held under the control of the Central or State Governments. Your school being a private concern, you are not bound to supply any information under the RTI Act.

You need not to disclose any info.
You need not to intimate that ur school is not covered under RTI
You just ignore.
Nothing will happen, if you are not answering.

Please understand ur school is un-recognised by any governmental boards, as from ur question, asz such you need to disclose any info
