Criteria for nursery admission to remain unchanged this year

NEW DELHI: Ending days of suspense and anxiety for parents, the Delhi gover nment has announced that the criteria for nursery admissions this year will remain unchanged.

According to Delhi education director Amit Singla, there are no changes in the criteria for the current admission session.

This means that the points system, along with the freedom for schools to decide the criteria for points, remains.

Parents of three-year olds were eagerly awaiting any changes in the criteria as the High Court had asked the Lieutenant Governor (LG) to submit his recommendations on the matter. These recommendations were to be final.

According to sources, the LG has asked for some more time to come out with the new recommendations.“The education department has been directed to apply to the High Court for extension of the deadline as he wants to include more people in his consultations. That plus the uncertainty of government formation has made him ask for more time,” sources said.

The points system will give the schools the freedom to choose the criteria for the points system as well as the quantum of points in each category.

My Daughter completes 3 years on 18-Mar-14. Is She eligible for admission for 2014-15 session. I was of the opinion that she should be 4+ as on 1st day of the session and would admit her in a play-way from 1-Apr-14 so I did not got her admitted in any play way school till now as i want her to enjoy her childhood before getting the burden of school. Please suggest, i am a little confused about the age criteria now as somewhere it is 3+ and somewhere it is 4+. In first case, i don't want her to be youngest in the class to add up to the burden.. please suggest....

Davinder, As per some sources upper age cut off of 4 years might be notified soon .In that case you can apply in KG next year where vacancies are very less.

Children born between 1st April, 2010 and 31st March, 2011 are eligible for nursery/Pre-school admission.
Children born between 1st April, 2009 and 31st March, 2010 are eligible for Pre-Primary/KG admission.

So your daughter is eligible for nursery admission this coming session.

Thanx Lathaa

They are juts taking parents for a ride and jeopardizing children's future.

Further, parents are again at the mercy of the schools and there is no centralized policies for the same.

Very Valid points and i concur with you.

So it is clear that by 15th December the guidelines will be out and from 1st Jan the admission process starts if no new recommendations are added. I hope the autonomy of the schools on points system gets reduced.

Kindly advice.

Mr.Vohra has suggested a better method for nursery admission which was featured in TOI

Is there a better method for nursery admissions?

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)

great options but looks impossible to implement in Today's scenario. May be after five years when Arvind Kejariwal (AAP) will be CM of Delhi, this would be possible. :) 

Great Suggestion sir. Let's try to implement it.

Hope such a transparent system is implemented soon to end the woes of parents seeking admission of their wards in delhi schools....
