The sample was selected from 5 schools of different educational boards namely HBSE (state board), CBSE (central board) and ICSE (international board). The total sample of 300 students were selected randomly, consisiting of 150 boys and 150 girls. For assessment of creativity Divergent Production Abilities developed by Sharma (2011) was used. Data for home and school environments were recorded by using scales Home Environment Inventory (1989) and School Environment Inventory (1984) by Mishra. The results of the research highlighted that school environment is the important predictor of creativity as compared to home environment. The paper also examines that there is no significant relationship between academic achievement and divergent production abilities of respondents.
