Believe this if you can:
• Salwan Montessori School will not allow parents who have more than two children to apply for admission.
• Mahavir Senior Model School has decided to award 5 points to non-smoker parents and parents who are non-drinkers/vegetarians.
It seems that ethical policing has seeped into the already controversial Delhi nursery admission scenario of 2008. Schools seem to be encouraging vegetarianism and non-smoking by scrutinising admission process based upon lifestyle choices. While some parents have welcomed the move, most have defined it as out-rightly ridiculous. They believe that schools are bordering on making parents dance to their whims. Some people believe that schools are purposely doing this to add the ‘exclusivity factor’ to their brand name.
