Private unaided schools can evolve their own norms for nursery admissions

With the Delhi High Court on Friday giving “maximum autonomy” to private unaided schools here for evolving their own norms for nursery admissions, parents are “worried” about schools misusing their authority. The schools have, however, been asked to follow the recommendations of the 2007 Ganguly Committee.

Arpit Arya, a parent, said: “Parents will now have to book seats in new-age private schools and pay whatever fee is demanded. Otherwise they might end up like me. Last year, my child failed to get a confirmed seat in any of the good schools.”

Anuradha Sharma, an advocate and mother of a three-year-old, said: “Now our little ones will now be subjected to the pressure of interviews, while parents will be forced to get hold of some source to ensure the child gets admitted.”

A Delhiite who has applied for his child’s admission this year said: “Each school has now been given complete freedom to formulate its own set of rules. A parent’s duty now is to wait for each and every school to decide the dates and the criteria. Every seat will now be awarded at the sole discretion of the school management.”

Suresh Kumar Shukla who struggled for his daughter’s admission last year added: “This will confuse parents as they will now have to go through every school’s guidelines.”

Sumit Vohra, an activist who runs a nursery admission website, said: “As per the order, the private unaided schools are constitutionally protected and empowered to govern their institutions. Now that private schools are free to devise their own methods, what is the guarantee that they will not be misusing their power by giving points such as parent working for any noble cause, children of State/national awardees, Defence and Navy services, Civil Services, vegetarians, etc.”

AAP bats for appeal

Staff Reporter adds:

Expressing fears that the verdict could mean the return of the practice of schools demanding donations, the Aam Aadmi Party demanded that the Delhi Administration should challenge the verdict in Supreme Court.

“In case private schools are finally allowed to frame their own guidelines, the process of admission will be vulnerable to manipulations based on extraneous considerations. ”

The AAP said even though some of the guidelines issued by the L-G last year were debatable, but removing them altogether will encourage the interference of private managements, politicians and other lobbies in nursery admissions.

Totally agreed for any commoner .... This hc verdict would surely ensure that hitler rule maintains .... From that of their Marxist view .... They have suddenly shifted and shown sympathy to hitlers rule .... Last year there was lot of scope to the commoners .... This verdict is totally against a common child and ensures that they may not be given any space and also a struggle for every parent .... To only run after each and every school and where chances are zero to those .... Rather there will be a fight to every seat wether alumni or sibling ... Doesn't matter but it ensures that common person cannot enter a good school

After court order, parents fear arbitrary categories in admission

“There are a large number of schools that give points to children of parents who work in defence services despite the government making it very clear that the parents’ educational or professional backgrounds cannot be used to award points to a child,” said Sumit Vohra, founder, admissionsnursery.com, a forum for parents where a number of complaints are aired each year.

NEW DELHI: Schools in the city may be rejoicing after the high court verdict but parents are worried about schools announcing arbitrary criteria for admissions.

In the past, schools have given points to children who, along with their parents, are vegetarians. The Mahavir Senior Model School also gave points to children of teetotallers, effectively punishing children for the habits of their parents.

Mother’s International School, in 2012, said that parents need to provide proof of ownership of house to get admission, ruling out all parents who live in rented or government accommodation. The school later withdrew the condition.

Another school used to give points to children if they knew any language other than Hindi and Punjabi.

A large number of schools add ambiguous categories such as parents involved in ‘noble work’ or service to the society. What the two terms may or may not encompass is left open to interpretation.

“Despite there being a very small level of control in the points system according to the 2007 guidelines, schools set criteria that are illegal. Giving children admission based on their parents’ achievements or lack thereof is unacceptable,” said Khagesh Jha, member, Social Jurist, an NGO.
