For nursery admissions, families struggle with birth, address papers~ Sumit Vohra
NEW DELHI: Nursery admissions may be about a month away but parents are already getting their paperwork in order. Lack of clarity on the selection process is adding to their anxiety. With 'distance' carrying the maximum points in the current points system, parents are readying a set of documents to serve as address proof.
"Parents living in rented accommodations face a lot of problems as they think bank statements, gas connections and mobile bills are valid address proof," observes Sumit Vohra, founder, admissionsnursery.com, "Many schools don't even accept lease deeds and some accept only passport or voter IDs as proof. Documents required are also school-specific like the points system. Having a fixed set of documents will help parents be prepared."
Even birth certificates can cause some stress because certain schools ask for them to be submitted, not while taking admission, but at the time of application. "I am wondering how many copies are required. I have just two," says Deepti Singh. Parents often don't have names of children on the birth certificates, which is a must for some schools but some schools require names to be printed on the certificates. "It takes the corporation at least three weeks to issue a new certificate. On several occasions, by the time parents have the learn they need the certificates readied, they have already run out of timeand get them, time is already up," says Vohra. "If a parent is applying to 10 or more schools, he needs to keep four-five original certificates ready. Parents can get a certificate with the child's name printed by submitting the older one."
Singh is seeking admission for her daughter, a first child. Interestingly, as proof of both, she'll need to submit affidavits. "Parents should get these ready in advance and should have at least 10 copies made," says Vohra, "The cost of getting them made increases enormously once the application process begins."

Hi Sakshi,
In the list of documents parents credentials are not mentioned i.e. their educational certificates. Are theynot required during child's admission.

@ Juin De
After implementation of RTE Act, no points are given for parent's educational qualification or profession. So documents related to these are not required.

Even documents has become school specific. As quoted my Mr.Vohra parents living in rented accommodation struggle a lot. Since few schools consider it and some ignore. Few schools even ask for PAN card proof. So indirectly schools go for screening process to know the status of the parents. Hope DOE will come with specific documents list which should be followed uniformly by all schools.
