ABSOLUTELY CORRECT ARVINDER totally agree with you, this is not the time to change the system. Next year maybe not this year.
Arvinder Singh said:Hi,
I think there is a way of doing things & these random thought less decisions by government won't do good to anyone.
Firstly, government is at fault for not enforcing laws properly. Similar things have happened in previous years as well; it is not a new problem. So, this move should have been forced earlier. And even if government wants to change rules now, it should be for next year.
Secondly, one can also argue both ways as to which criteria is more fair - points for parents professionally qualified or points for distance. Lesser qualified people will say they have equal rights to good education for their children & obviously this is 100% correct. But at the same time, qualified AND unqualified parents who are living in a locality where there is no good school, can raise a similar voice for equal rights. Just because there is no good school in neighborhood, it does not mean that their children should suffer. So, either way arguments can be made.
Now, there would be many parents who have got their children admission to schools having points for professional qualifications & thus may not have pursued admission process in other schools. If their admission is canceled at this stage, it will lead to nothing but total chaos. This will also give further opportunity to schools to ask for hefty donations. Some schools may even to an extreme & take this opportunity to unfairly cancel some valid admissions to make way for people who can make good donations.
So, if government really wants to implement this immediately now (for whatever reasons), entire admission procedure across all schools should be scrapped by canceling all admissions & start again from beginning. This does not look like a feasible thing to me.
So, for now, let sanity prevail & things be as they are & ensure that process is fair to one & all from next year.

I welcome this great buy DOE move. Although I am an engineer by profession but I strongly believe that we should not discriminate children on the basis of their parent's education and profession. Who guaranties that a child of scientist will also excel in academics and become a scientist.
Malice to no one.
Thanks,
Umesh
Sandeep ji ..I am also saying the same thing ..no change this year . i think there is some confusion !!

JJ so what you are saying is scrap parents background points? Why do you find this discriminatory? If this is discriminatory then so are sibling points? So are alumni points? Also for your information none for these private schools get any grants from DOE. I think Sumit and his website are doing a wonderful job but tell me JJ if you were to create the points system how will you do it - on what basis? Can you suggest a split of 100 points which according to you is non-discriminatory?
JJ said:Hi Sandeep,
I totally understand your views and agrees also partially. But Sumit ji is just trying to help. Its all actually DOE fault. They have not issued any clear guidelines to schools and if they have, they have not enforced it properly. Schools have been taking DOE very very lightly. I think Doe still should take action against erring schools by reducing any grants or levying penalty etc so that they take a lesson and take the guidelines seriously. Sumit ji has just been putting schools erring behaviour in front of DOE from time to time and that should be done. But DOE should be wise enough to use the info in correct manner so that no one suffers. School admission should be an impartial and logical process. The way DOE has designed the point system, it has left full scope for schools to manipulate it to their benefit. Also, the point system is very discriminatory. Except distance, i dont think any other is point is non discriminatory.
So definitely, DOE should take action on all the feedbacks making sure children and parents dont suffer and schools also get a lesson.
Sandeep said:Sumit your website was the one which propogated that these point should be removed and are unfair and now you are asking parents who are affected to get up and ask you for help. I think you are also adding a lot of confusion to the already existing confusion. It is quite fair for schools to keep some points for the parents background. Tomorrow we will say WHY NEIGHBORHOOD? WHY ALUMNI? WHY SIBLING? BEST WOULD BE EVERYONE APPLIES AND SCHOOLS DO LUCKY DRAW ONLY? If some of us have studied and worked hard all our lives OBVIOULSY WE WANT OUR CHILDREN TO REAP THE BENEFIT RIGHT?? I SUGGEST WE BEHAVE RESPONSIBLY AND DO THESE ENDLESS DEBATES ONCE THIS ROUND OF ADMISSIONS IS OVER NOT NOW. FOR NEXT YEAR WE CAN HAVE A BIG DEBATE AND THEN DECIDE BUT AT THIS LAST MOMENT IT IS TOTALLY CRAZY.
Hi Sandeep,
I am in no way justifying this point system. I am also in same boat as you. We are mainly scoring profession and qualification points in different schools. We also have only one son. So i agree.. all these points are highly discrimatory. In my view, there should not be any point system for next year. Rather it should be lottery system so that everyone gets a fair chance. What I myself is looking for currently is no change in point system for this year. As removal or partial points will be very unfair for parents like us who stand some chance due to this only.

Hahaha JJ I don't agree at all with you!! Lottery system for admissions is SO INAPPROPRIATE!! These are not DDA Flats being alloted.

Why next year. A thief breaks your house and you catch him red handed. Will you ask him go ahead go and ROB but do not ROB next time!
This is stupid. You have realised that something is wrong, correct it immedialet why next year.
Sandeep said:Ok sir maybe I misunderstood you. All I am saying is that we have come a long way from the old system of no criteria and it will take long for us to arrive at the perfect system. Let us keep working in that direction with resources like you and your website. However causing disruptions and chaos is not the right way to do it. Sumit, you sure have done a great job with this site would be really good if some of us could meet you personally sometime to express our appreciation.

well.. if every kid has equal right of education irrespective of any factor, then lottery system is not bad. Any point system will be unfair to some section of parents.
