Noida schools cash in on Delhi nursery admission delay

अभिभावक हुए कंफ्यूज, शिक्षा निदेशालय के पास भी नहीं है जवाब

कैसे हल होगी दाखिले की पहेली

अमर उजाला ब्यूरो

नई दिल्ली। दिल्ली के अभिभावकों के लिए नर्सरी दाखिला इस बार अबूझ पहेली साबित हो रहा है। इस कंफ्यूजन का जवाब फिलहाल निदेशालय के पास भी नहीं है। शिक्षा निदेशालय भी अब कोर्ट में 24 मार्च को होने वाली सुनवाई से ही कुछ स्थिति साफ होने की उम्मीद लगा रहा है।

बताते चलें कि नर्सरी दाखिला प्रक्रिया की शुरुआत जनवरी के दूसरे सप्ताह से हुई थी। तब प्रक्रिया को 31 मार्च तक पूरी करने की बात कही गई थी। लेकिन एक के बाद एक निर्देशों ने इस प्रक्रिया को ऐसा उलझाया कि कोर्ट को दाखिलों पर रोक लगानी पड़ी। एडमिशन नर्सरी डॉट कॉम प्रमुख सुमित वोहरा के मुताबिक इस समय अभिभावक बुरी तरह कंफ्यूज हैं। सामान्य वर्ग के अभिभावकों के साथ ही गरीब वर्ग केअभिभावक भी अपने को ठगा सा महसूस कर रहे हैं। उन्होंने बताया कि अब गरीब वर्ग के अभिभावक भी कोर्ट जाने की सोच रहे हैं।

लक्ष्मी नगर निवासी अचिंत गुप्ता ने अपने क्षेत्र के प्रत्येक स्कूल में आवेदन किया था। मगर उन्हें दाखिला कब शुरू होगा इसका इंतजार है।

वहीं एक अन्य शारदा वर्मा कहती हैं कि वह फीस दे चुकी हैं अब वह यह जानना चाह रही है कि उनकी फीस रिफंड हो पाएगी या नहीं। एक अन्य अभिभावक अदिति खुराना कहती हैं कि रोक लगाने के बाद भी स्कूल इस गर्ल्स कोटे केतहत दाखिल कर रहे हैं। क्या इन दाखिलों पर रोक नहीं लगी है।

नर्सरी दाखिला ः

अभिभावकों के सवाल

1. लॉटरी किस-किस वर्ग क ेलिए होगी, जिनकी लॉटरी हो चुकी उनका क्या होगा ?

2. जिन स्कलों में फीस जमा कराई जा चुकी है वह फीस रिफंड करेंगे या नहीं ?

3. स्थानांतरण के पांच अंक जिनके सही थे उनकेलिए वह अंक क्या वापस आ सकते हैं ?

4. अभी भी कुछ स्कूल फीस मांग रहे हैं तो क्या उन्हें फीस जमा करानी चाहिए या नहीं ?

5. जिनका लॉटरी से कोई कनेक्शन नहीं और उनका दाखिला ऐसे ही हो रहा था उनका क्या होगा ?

6. कहीं दोबारा कोई नया आदेश तो नहीं आ जाएगा जिसकेकारण नेबरहुड वालों को कोई नुकसान हो ?

7. जो स्कूल गर्ल्स कोटे केतहत अब भी दाखिले कर रहे हैं वहां दाखिला करा लेना चाहिए या नहीं ?

8. क्या आर्थिक पिछड़े वर्ग और वंचित वर्ग के दाखिलों पर भी रोक लगी है? क्या पहले हो चुके दाखिले मान्य होंगे ?

Noida schools cash in on Delhi nursery admission delay

With Delhi nursery admissions stuck in a web of confusion, private schools in Noida and Greater Noida are seizing the opportunity.

For instance, DPS Noida has added one more section for 30 children this month in nursery.

“We completed the final list on Wednesday. An email has been sent to the parents of selected students. The last date for fee submission is March 18,” said Kamini Bhasin, principal, DPS, Sector 30, Noida.

The nursery admissions in Delhi have been put on hold till March 24.

“We are still admitting students for the nursery class. Around 60 seats are vacant in our school. We have saved some seats for Delhi students,” said Pramod Sharma, Genesis Global School, Sector 132, Noida- Greater Noida expressway.

The nursery admission process in Noida and Greater Noida was over by end of December. Many private schools save seats for Delhi students every year but this year the process is stretching till late.

“There are 40-50 seats left in our school for nursery. The only criteria to select a student will be the first come first serve basis,” said Indira Kohli, principal, DPS Noida-Greater Noida expressway.

Step by Step school has closed its admission process for the year 2014-2015. But many schools are still open.

Parents in Delhi who are hassled with the nursery admissions process have a chance to secure a seat in Noida schools.

“Our admission calendar starts from August and we have increased one more section this year. There are 96 seats for nursery and the admission process is still going on,” said Lotamudra Sengupta, admission coordinator, Pathways school, Sector 100, Noida- Greater Noida Expressway.

ASIAN AGE

List-less parents in agony

The immediate response to the stay on nursery admissions till March 24 on Wednesday was all-round confusion. Parents tried to work out who — if anyone — will get to keep a seat and who's likely to get another chance.

"I got a seat in the redraw," says Digvijay Singh, a Saket parent who secured a seat in the draw conducted after the second set of guidelines was issued. "If I lose that seat after March 24, I will go to court. Why will they listen to the other group of parents and not me?" The group of parents who had filed the petition were the ones who were going to lose seats due to the new draw for all 70-pointers - applicants with points for distance.

"Schools, children and parents —all are suffering. Even a TV soap has less twists and turns than this year's nursery admission drama. It's really agonizing for a parent to leave all other work and just keep checking schools and web pages every week for a new draw list," writes a parent on admissionsnursery.com. It's owner, Sumit Vohra, says that the March 7 guidelines — ordering redraws for all 70-pointers and issued after the scrapping of distance points — had led to many schools conducting fresh lotteries even for the 5% girls' quota. "This is ultimate torture. Some people are constantly challenging policies and the governing bodies are also not using their judgment to bring this misery to an end," he says.

"If admission does happen in April, I'll be paying fees for the entire quarter. By then there will be summer vacations and my child would have hardly been to school," says Digvijay Singh.

"We all want this to be over now," says Shilpa. "My colleagues are telling me to go and sit in court now." A fashion designer, her work's been suffering for over a month and travel plans have had to be shelved. Shilpa, along with some other parents, had filed one of the two petitions against transfer cases in February but hadn't quite expected this turn of events. She managed a seat - she'd got alumni points at one school - but is, like everyone else, worried that yet another upheaval is in the offing. As testament to the soaring stress levels, there was a furore at a north Delhi school on Wednesday when the same name was called out twice at a draw.

Edu dept has issued around 15 notifications on the admission process this year

NEW DELHI: The Delhi High Court’s decision to stay the nursery admission process has once again caused deep anguish among parents whose children are set to join school this year.

JASJEET PLAHA/FILE PHOTO Admission process usually gets over by March 31.

This is for the first time ever that nursery admissions have dragged on for such a long time in the city.

The parents who followed all guidelines have suffered the most.

“I don’t understand where we went wrong. We have followed all rules, submitted all documents and have done it on time. The matter, however, is far from being resolved. We still don’t know whether our daughter will go to school today or not,” said Preeti Varma, whose daughter has been admitted to a school already but her admission hangs in the balance.

In previous years, the admission process usually got over by March 31. In fact, admissions under the first and second lists were completed by mid-February.

Around 15 notifications have already been issued by the Directorate of Education on various aspects of the admission process this year. The first of these was issued on December 18 when the guidelines were issued, while the last was issued on March 7 when the new admission schedule was declared.

Parents, on the other hand, have had enough.

“I think the court and governments are playing with the lives of small children. We as parents are so stressed and the children are not immune. Is it right to toy with their future like this? I took two weeks off in January especially to ensure I handle the admission process calmly. The process has dragged on for three months now and there is no end in sight. Why can’t the court just come to a decision that is binding on all parties? All petitions and litigation should be combined and a collective decision should be taken,” said Manpreet Singh, a parent who has been running from pillar to post for the last three months.

It is not just those parents whose children have to go to school this year that are worried. Even those whose children will turn three after April this year are worried.

“I hope the court and the government resolve this mess by next year. Some good must come out of all this litigation and plethora of notifications,” said Padmini Rao, mother of a two-year-old.

A large number of complaints and reactions to the court order were also seen online. Within an hour’s time, thousands of parents commented and complained about the massive delay in the process at admissionsnursery.com, a popular portal for parents.

Starting a fresh process with balanced guideline seems to be the need of hour. The current process has flopped like anything.

Dr samar shadab, firstly i do take offense to the comment on smarty point most frauds have happened in neighborhood points which is the easiest fake lease are on sale in places like vasant vihar i hope u are not ignorant on that front SINCE U KNOW SO much about every one else also i would want to appraise u on one front . transfer points have been in existence for some years now why only this year we were targeted i have an explanation

1. this is the only group which is most vulnerable we have no clouting or support system in the city.

2. we know of schools as to what is advertised. the fact that the points were given by the govt is not our fault mind u we must give some credit to the govt also they know how the city functions and how the so called Delhi residents treat so called out siders tht they must have thought before giving these extra points otherwise the fact that i am not an alumni or my child dosent have a sibling or we don't know how to acquire wrong certificates or under hand admissions since we are not from your city we dont know how it functions is enough to guarantee that my child will not get admissions anywhere.

3. every one agrees that fraud is happening at all levels then why was only inter state points scrapped . y were the other categories not checked has any one ever asked that question.

4. of course no one can please every one there always be people who are not satisfied with one set of guidelines my contention is just give every one a fare chance to at least compete why should my child suffer because the govt could not defend their guidelines.
