Criteria for nursery admission to remain unchanged this year

NEW DELHI: Ending days of suspense and anxiety for parents, the Delhi gover nment has announced that the criteria for nursery admissions this year will remain unchanged.

According to Delhi education director Amit Singla, there are no changes in the criteria for the current admission session.

This means that the points system, along with the freedom for schools to decide the criteria for points, remains.

Parents of three-year olds were eagerly awaiting any changes in the criteria as the High Court had asked the Lieutenant Governor (LG) to submit his recommendations on the matter. These recommendations were to be final.

According to sources, the LG has asked for some more time to come out with the new recommendations.“The education department has been directed to apply to the High Court for extension of the deadline as he wants to include more people in his consultations. That plus the uncertainty of government formation has made him ask for more time,” sources said.

The points system will give the schools the freedom to choose the criteria for the points system as well as the quantum of points in each category.

Anytime pooja :)

It would be good to wait but also I am sure as per our system LG would not be filing his reply to hon' HC by Dec and scheduled dates for opening of admission is Jan begining. If court delays the admission dates it would be better for all parents applying for admission this year.

Good decision by LG. More people should be involved to discuss the objectives, means and admission process guidelines effectiveness. The guidelines should be clear and acceptable by all.

i want to know the age criteria will also remain same this year as 3+ or it is changed to now 4+. Please if anyone can confirm about this..

Shikha

Min age on 31mar 2014 is going to remain 3yrs only.

My Daughter completes 3 years on 18-Mar-14. Is She eligible for admission for 2014-15 session. I was of the opinion that she should be 4+ as on 1st day of the session and would admit her in a play-way from 1-Apr-14 so I did not got her admitted in any play way school till now as i want her to enjoy her childhood before getting the burden of school. Please suggest, i am a little confused about the age criteria now as somewhere it is 3+ and somewhere it is 4+. In first case, i don't want her to be youngest in the class to add up to the burden.. please suggest....

Davinder, As per some sources upper age cut off of 4 years might be notified soon .In that case you can apply in KG next year where vacancies are very less.

Children born between 1st April, 2010 and 31st March, 2011 are eligible for nursery/Pre-school admission.
Children born between 1st April, 2009 and 31st March, 2010 are eligible for Pre-Primary/KG admission.

So your daughter is eligible for nursery admission this coming session.

Thanx Lathaa

They are juts taking parents for a ride and jeopardizing children's future.

Further, parents are again at the mercy of the schools and there is no centralized policies for the same.
