Flawed Point System for Nursery Admission in Delhi

I am one of the parents who could not get my girl child admitted in any school in Delhi due to the flawed point system prepared by the our LEARNED Minister - Mr. Lovely. He obviously does not know a thing about education so definitely he has copied the concept from somewhere but he is not good at copying also.

You would be surprised to know that the school which is in front of my house has given me 30 points out of 100, how can somebody get admission for their children without submitting false certificates.

I have written to the Chief Minister of Delhi and soon would write to the Prime Minister of India that the brainless ministers must be removed from the ministry.

Most of the unaided recognised private schools want to continue with the 100-point system that was developed by the Ganguly Committee for nursery admissions and which gives weightage to different issues for deciding the suitability of students for admission. But few flaws has to be rectified and common centralised admission process would be the only solution for which Mr.Vohra is insisting the DOE.

We should not look at the issue from schools' point of view. In any case, they will be able to fill their seats, thanks to huge gap between supply and demand. We should look at the issue from the students' point of view. What is the child's crime if he is not 'first child', 'girl child' or whose sibling is not in the same school? What is the child's crime if his parents have no transfer case or are not divorced?

Mr.Akshat

Among all these categories you mentioned I feel Alumini has to be scraped. Mr.Vohra has raised this issue several times but Govt is not bothered. At this juncture will your issues will be acceptable by the Govt?

Mr Vohra has taken the first step. Now it is up to other parents on this forum to follow it up by supporting Mr Vohra by becoming co-signotaries to any petition he files in court or to the Delhi govt. I am ready to join Mr Vohra in any effort to this effect. Mr Vohra should also issue a general appeal on all the groups and discussion forums on this website. As long as parents don't unite, nothing will change. This is the right time to take action as the admission process is yet to start.

Mr.Akshat
If all parents come forward like you we can expect some change. But only very few parents will come forward to support in open.

Hi Lathaa Ji.... Centralized (or zone wise centralized e.g. North Delhi, South Delhi etc) admission process with full transparency is definitely the answers to the woe of parents. In this forum only I have provided my views on how process should be on admission.... I think the best way to move forward in this regard is to take the base of Ganguly report adds public view in it, highlight shortcomings of current process and present our data to authorities. If Mr. Vohra or anyone is seriously pursuing this matter and need my help please feel free to contact me. Thanks.

Views of Mr.Vohra in Speak Out TOI

sumitvohra@admissionsnursery.com, delhi, 13 December 2011, 12:27am IST

I propose a Centralised Point System with centralized admission process with following salient features: 1. There should be one common form which should be filled by all parents who are seeking admissions for their kids, online/offline. The form should have all the required details and a few preferred schools. 2. It should be submitted to the DOE or the any concerned impartial authority. 3. Based on the details given by parents, the authorities should assign schools to each child (each child should be given a choice of 4-5 schools to choose from). 4. After this list is out, the parents should choose any one school and submit the same. 5. Once the list is final, the schools should be sent the list of the students who have been admitted in their school. 6 Scrap Alumni Points( Against RTE as alumni is educated till 12th so profiling against uneducated under RTE ) 7 Transparency etc 8 .Strict action against all (schools which flout guidelines) 9. There should be a uniformity from sale of prospects to declaration of selected candidates. 10. Upper Limit of fees should by schools to be fixed. 11. Any guidelines should be analysed before implementation. 12. No child should be left out without admission. Regards Sumit Vohra Founder/Admin - www.admissionsnursery.com President V R ONE (NGO)

Hello all ..
Even I was not able to secure a a place for my daughter in any school for nursery in the last admission season.apart from the fact that the no. Of seats against the children seeking admissions are less,schools also have an upper hand because of the flaws and point system.all schools have their own criteria of selection and awarding points .the problem escalates because of this,in the name of management quota seats they asked for huge donations or they make touts outside school sit and extract money for seats .many people have been a victim last year ,they paid money and still could not secure a seat , I know a couple of them.another idea I could give is. That if we could arrange a TV interview for news channels of these parents witha good story.we could make an impact so that no parents spend money for admissions in next season.it would definately make a difference
