Mr SUMIT VOHRA UNMASKS | SHRIRAM GURGAON SENDING SMS TO SIBLING CASES FOR APPLYING IN SCHOOL BUT ADMISSIONS NOT OPEN FOR GENERAL CAT YET ? GIVE YOUR TAKE AFTER READING MANJU BHARAT RAMS STATEMENT

Child in top school?

Admission to sibling guaranteed

FOR TINY tots who have siblings studying in top private schools, admission to nursery looks set to be a cakewalk this year.

Most private schools have either set aside a sizeable chunk of seats or accorded maximum number of points for the sibling criterion.

The Shri Ram School has, in fact, gone a step further and allowed parents who already have children studying in either of its two branches to register for admission before everyone else.

The school reached out to the parents through bulk SMSes on Wednesday. The parents were asked to write to the school in case they wished to apply to the Aravali branch. The same will be done for the junior wing in Vasant Vihar soon.

“ We want to ascertain how many sibling cases will apply to our schools since we want to give them preference. Last year, we had a lot of sibling cases and they had to be accommodated under the management quota. We want to be prepared this time,” Manju Bharat Ram, chairperson of the trust that runs the Shri Ram Schools, said.

Some other sought- after schools have ranked the sibling category just after neighbourhood in importance.

The Delhi Public School in Rohini has accorded 25 points each to sibling and neighbourhood categories. The Ahlcon International School in Mayur Vihar and the Bal Bharati Public School on Ganga Ram Hospital Marg have set aside 25 and 20 points respectively for the sibling category as against 30 points for neighbourhood.

“ Parents suffer a lot if their children go to two different schools. The biggest problem is the clash of school timings.

Picking up and dropping the children become a nightmare.

So, such applicants needs preference,” Sumit Vohra, founder of admissionsnursery. com, said.

“ Sibling will be a very important ingredient of our admission policy, too, as it keeps parents’ convenience in mind,” Jyoti Bose, principal of Springdales School, Dhaula Kuan, said.

NOTICE TO GOVT

The Delhi High Court on Wednesday sought a response from the city government on a PIL seeking quashing of nursery admission guidelines framed by it.

A division bench of chief justice Dipak Misra and justice Manmohan also issued notice to the Centre and asked them to file their reply within six weeks. The PIL was filed by NGO Social Jurist. Its lawyer Ashok Agarwal said the guidelines giving private schools a free hand to formulate their own admission criteria violated the Right to Education Act.

the general category is now the minority group !!! look at the seats available in sanskriti. If they can be schools giving preference to civil services and defence, then why not professionals...whats the logic ? do we contribute less to the India ? if you want to be fair, be fair to everybody !

not sure what rules/criteria GUrgaon school follows as the admissions in most of the schools except shri ram ARE FULL.

LOOKS LIKE IN gURGAON, SCHOOL CAN HAVE ANY CRITERIA, WHETHER IT BE LOTTERY OR PARENTS INTERACTION ETC ETC?

In a country with population growing beyond 1.3 bn at an outrageous pace, this kind of step is ridiculous and seems premitive where you were incentivized to produce more kids.....and even premium education institutions following this philosophy..feel pity

so this is the outcome...as Govt has given schools the discretion to have their own guidelines..and top schools will surely follow the tradition they find befitting...therefore we are seeing and will see..in all renowned schools-Siblings & Alumni being major criteria with neighbourhood...and a major chunk can go for management quota too in name of 'others'......

New parents (from general category) are surely finding it too difficult this time...
