Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether GST is applicable when a small printing business sells student ID cards to a government school. While services provided directly to educational institutions might have exemptions, printing ID cards is considered a supply of goods, not a service. Therefore, it is generally taxable, and no specific exemption applies to this scenario.

You are to not giving educational services rather you are giving services to Educational Institutions.

So as per Notification 12/2017 CT rate :

Service Provided : to an educational institution, by way of :-

(i) transportation of students, faculty
and staff;
(ii) catering, including any mid-day
meals scheme sponsored by the Central Government State Government or UT;
(iii) security or cleaning or Housekeeping services performed in such educational institution;
(iv) services relating to admission to,
or conduct of examination by, such
institution; upto higher secondary:

As your Services not being cover above hence it is taxable
The notification referred is not correct.

Selling ID cards shall not be treated as Services. It is purely Goods. No exemption will be applicable.

Yes in case if printing of admit card in relation to conduct of examination is exempted as clarify by Circular 151/07/2021 GST dt. 07/06/2021

you should refer the Notification before you comment on same.
