Confusion is reigning hard for parents who have realised that unlike last year when three and four-year-old children were admitted in Nursery schools all over the city, things stand different in 2008. This is especially applicable to those of who missed out on the chance of gaining a nursery admission last year and have an age issue. This year, the KG admissions are bound to be limited. The seats in KG have reduced drastically with a higher number of nursery admissions. Those who made sure that their children (4+ Age Group) completed their nursery-level schooling from a pre-school/playschool now aren’t sure whether to send their child to a Nursery or a KG. The minimum age required for Nursery admissions this year is 3+ and 4+ for KG, however, no upper age limit has been defined by the government.

Consider these to estimate a Parents’ Dilemma —

•    Gyan Bharti, Saket has nearly 150 seats for Nursery admissions but will invite only 15 applications for KG.

•    Shri Ram School has 112 seats, each in nursery and KG but the general category seats are being anticipated to be full for KG. Most of the seats are     expected be filled by their own students.

•    In all likelihood, some schools like Tagore International School, Vasant Vihar and Bal Bharti School, Ganga Ram Hospital Marg, won’t be having     KG admissions to begin with whereas, schools like Mother’s International School, Aurobindo Marg and Meera Model School, Janakpuri start with a KG only and not Nursery.
