Sunil, I think what you are saying is that this system is not right so let us protest and scrap admissions. However what is the right system, you do not know. So if I understand correctly you are saying let us cancel admissions for now and then ... ? Then what? Wait for DOE to set new criteria? And you think that will be the fair criteria. If one opposes and says that this is wrong then one SHOULD say what is right also. otherwise we dont reach anywhere. Idea is to get the job done, it may not be the best way to do it but someone has to do it. If we all just keep criticising everything and opposing everything how will work happen? You are talking like politicians.

It is unjustified by DOE to suddenly change the points criteria....
Though i m totally against of banning education n profession points but still if they want ,They could have implemented this the next year....
I don know what r they trying to show from this... If anything DOE n Mr. Lovely wants to do then they should curb the donations.... They should first bann all the schools taking donations n back door entries.
Y cant they do anything against big schools like G.D>goenka,they r taking openly..... Coz they'll b bribed by them.....

No one but the average middle class family is suffering..... Rich ppl will still get admissions in good schools by giving donations....
Our child looses the probabitility of getting a seat in a good school against Every seat given to a child of a richie rich
I also believe that parent's qualification and profession should not be criteria for the nursery admission.

Every child has the right to equality and equal right to education. The child's education should not be decided on the basis of parents qualification. But then the next question is what should be the criteria, then I think the criteria should be:

1) Maximum points to the distance/neighbourhood
2) Points to the parents contribution to the society (socially, culutally and nationally)
3) If parents want to take the responsible and active role to build the society/country.

It should not be financially, rather parents active involvement in building the nation.
But again the parents are involved here..........
so is it justified now?
parents qualification or parents achievement?
Dps r k puram does give points 4 parents qualification...
no only alumni sibling govt.employee,girl child,neighbourhood
Parents has to be involved for the education of their child.....

But let us look at the larger picture....if you want to make the society better (which is one the aim of education) let the parents do some social work...

If for neighborhood points, parents can try to stay close to the better school, let them also contribute towards the society to get admission to a good school....

The aim of the education should be upliftment of the society, to increase the living standard and education standard of the education rather than getting a high-paying job ...or the status symbol from the school..

I have seen parents use the school as the status symbol now as their kid has got in so and so school...

DPS is giving points to Govt. Servants, Birla Vidya Niketan is giving points for excellence in arts/music etc. I can not see any rational behind withdrawing points for Parent's Education. Unnecessary confusion is being crated by DOE.
Ideally all schools should have same criteria for points allocation, which is not there.
Points are given for Alumini, sibling, government servants.

what about those who are applying for the admission of their first child. its not necessary that parents are the alumini as they can from another state.

No qualification points are there.

how our child will get the admission.

anybody pls help what can be done.
Oh dear!

What a mess. It has taken me more than 30 minutes to go thru the posts and I have a headache. Life is all about an uneven playing field. I am very surprised that up until now the DoE has not made it mandatory to have 30% reservation for SC/ST. Mr Sumit Vohra, you must raise this point as well, as I feel there is discrimination in Nursery representations for SC/ST and Dalits and backward classes and minorities. All schools - DPS, Modern, Sanskriti, Amity, Bluebells, Achlon, KR Mangalam, Mother Intl, etc, etc should implement this great equaliser. And they should study for free and not thousands.

My take:

1. Neighbourhood: It is the government's responsibility to have good schools in all suburbs. All over the world preference is given to children living in the neighbourhood of say 1 to 5 kms. In foreign countries I have seen my friends buy/rent houses in the vicinity of the posh /best schools paying triple the rent/price so that their child is given automatic admission. I really wonder how many parents would be willing to relocate to colonies near their preffered schools???
Nursery child is only 3 years old and its not fair to subject such a small baby to travel huge distances. We like a really good school in Noida but are simply not ready to subject our baby to 1 hour of commute each way from Moti bagh. What happen if the school bus breaks down in high summer or monsoons/traffic jams? Or a medical emergency?
2. Sibling: It is but natural and correct in every aspect to have all siblings study in the same school. Ease of transportation, ease of attending PTA's, ease of older sibling looking after the younger one, same books, uniforms, holidays together. All schools say that they have X number of seats for general category (non sibling etc). I have an elder daughter in a school and my son is not able to get into that school because of the point system. Had the point system been there 4 years ago my daughter would have got all the points and my son too would have made it.
Girl child: With the crazy ratio of boys and girls in the North India, the government is making an effort to give importance to a girl child. My son will not get points but Life is all about what it serves you and what you make out of it. Abdul Kalam became India's best scientist inspite of being from a poor background and he made his way to the top...
Professional qualification: Well we are average parents - not PG but both me and my wife have got double bachelors. The schools where we have applied do not give points for qualifications but then where does the argument stop???? Some schools have a strict business parent selection criterea for donation purposes. Sanskriti and DPS favour government employees and in Saskriti there is discrimination between various government departments...
Alumni: All over the world again preference is given to alumni's children. Its a tradition. If a parent has spent 12 years of life in a school they will always look upon their alma mater for their children.I am from out of Delhi and my wife is from a very good convent in south delhi. Now where does my son get the points to go to a convent? I was in favour of putting my elder daughter in my wife's school (which is only 15 minutes away) but my wife was hell bent that our daughter is not subjected to a convent... So???
Intercaste marriage: we could have had 5 points for this as I am a Himachali Khatri and my wife a Jain. But this year there are no points for it?

Synopsis: I would suggest that we all should take a deep breath and continue with the points as it is FOR THIS INTAKE and whatever suggestions are to be given should be done now for next year and clear, thoughtful guidlines be drafted by July 2010 to be implemented for 2011. Last minute changes are no good and let me tell you - all these changes would benefit the schools and their vested interest. I read in the paper that Modern has been asked to disclose its points and selection criterea. Mr Vohra, have they done it? Once the admissions are over no one will even remember it nor bother about it. No body has filed a RTI for getting the answers....

Whatever rules you make there will always be a percentage of people who will find it unfair and the government has to take a stand....

Jai Dilli, Jai Bharat!
We have got 45 pts DPS dwarka still no luck. fist born girl child, working in MNC big 4 s so no transfer case.:(
My child is very active and so far been very popular with teachers of her play school... some times i feel had there been interaction may be we had a better chance... just a thought
Apeejay School, Pitam Pura has allocated 35 points for "Affirmative Relative Criteria". What does that mean is not known and neither disclosed by the school. We only got 9 out of 35, despite being reasonably educated and quite well placed in our professions. I am a FCA and PMP from PMI, working with a multi-national company and my wife is a M.Com, B.Ed from CIE, and MCA. The school is also not telling on what basis we got 9 points only. We had applied in 5 schools and could not get sufficient points in 4 schools and only 1 more left. Even in that school also we only have 45 points. This year we are trying for our first son. In most of the schools we are loosing 40-50 points for alumni, sibling and girl child. It is virtually impossible to get through the point system in such a case.

In my opinion the way points are allocated needs to be reviewed. Schools should give equal weightage to all, to business people, professionals, less educated and to everyone.
