Alumni Quota Points AGAINST RTE SPIRIT- as per my interpretation - PLS GIVE YOUR VIEWS HERE
Dear Parents
Yesterday i raised this point on delhi aajtak live show in front of principal springdales that Alumni point is discrminatory and she was blank did not have answer
My observations
RTE says you cannot do the profiling of kid on basis of parents education and income
But when we talk of alumni it means the parents is at least educated till 12 grade
so here discrimation is obvious between uneducated parents and educated parents
this suits schools the why this point is kept against RTE spirit
i personaly feel its like adding education poits
THEN WHY EDUCATION POINTS ARE NOT BEING CONSIDERED
PLEASE GIVE YOUR TAKE

i agree with you all , Alumini points should not be considered for admission . Let us consider 2 cases :
1) 1st child whose parents have studied in same school around 15-20 yrs back , it is quite possible they could have highest qualification as Graduation and in business now
2) 2nd child whose parents have not studied in same school , they are highly qualaified may be MBBS , Engineers
so considering above 2 cases , why we should give point just because of Alumini . I strongly recommend to consider Parents Education for points rather than Alumini
after allocating 25% for EWS , 20% management quota . Game is left for General category to fight hard for admission with only 50% seats

Alumni points has nothing to do with RTE or reducing chances of gen category students. If Alumni points are removed it will benefit parents who are not from the city and have migrated to the city for work etc.
More than gen vs reserved vs EWS it discriminates between same class of people on the basis of their origin from the city.
"Your kid gets into the school if you have been living here ever since you were a kid" - ridiculous

Mr Vohra thank you very much for all the time and effort you have put into this forum and in communicating the parents problems to the school authorities and the govt.
This is an excellent point which you have made and it is indeed against the spirit of the RTE. The entire point of the Act is to reduce the illiteracy in our country and if only children of educated parents are taken into consideration then the whole point of the Act is moot.

Exactly. many parents have one major asset in the form of Educational qualifications. Parents from best institutions of India would want best for their children too. This definitely becomes a part a kid's performance as the base matters a lot. but according to RTE, these r against the rules. but same holds for Alumni Quota points. this should also should not become a part of admission process as this doesn't have any relevance in this process. Many parents would definitely put RTI on this issue and i will be one of them.

Alumni points are totally against the RTE. I am willing to contribute money so that a common admission form is brought b the education ministry and parents are not forced to but the expensive prospectus from the schools. If the parents stand united we can contribute more than the schools.

Thanks a Ton Sumit sir for putting forth this point in your live talk against the principal madam yesterday...
Its a very valid point as RTE sans any form of discrimination be it educational qualifications or professional career of a parent.
Already General category is finding itself sqeezed with only 55% seats to apply for and then if schools profile in this way be giving weightage to an alumni which surely will be an educated one, it can jeopardise the chances of a lesser educated/uneducated parent.

Complete agreed with your views. It is not at all to be considered to enhance the scope for general catagory. It is injustise with the child as well as with his/her parents who are from outside Delhi.

Dear all,
In my view,alumni is discriminatory as well as the sibling quota.In both the cases general kids are being discriminated against.Its impossible to get admission in a good school because all the seats are eaten up by these quota children.The schools should be advised to not to come out with their announcements before the Union HRD Ministry offers its view on whether the Nursery Admission Policy of Delhi Govt. is RTE compliant or not.I should also mention here that we may end up seeing litigation as well which may further delay the admissions process.The basic point is the Government doesn't wants to take on the powerful school lobby and instead wants the courts to take the call on this.
We have for long stayed online and talked and discussed our issues with each other.It appears that the time has come
when we should be prepared to hit the the roads and protest and show the Governments that the parents will not take all this injustice lying down.
