Admissions
1. What is the student strength per section?
We keep sections deliberately small so that every child gets attention.
- Pre-Primary (Playgroup, Nursery, Prep I, Prep II): 30–35 students per section
- Classes 1 to 8: 35–40 students per section
- Classes 9 to 12: 35–40 students per section
2. What is the minimum age requirement for admission to different classes?
Grade-wise age eligibility:
- Pre-Nursery / Nursery: minimum 3 years+ (typically 3–4 years)
- Prep I (Junior KG): minimum 4 years+ (typically 4–5 years)
- Prep II (Senior KG): minimum 5 years+ (typically 5–6 years)
- Class 1: 6 years completed, with the child turning 6 on or before the 31 March cut-off date
Age eligibility and admission procedures are subject to the applicable government and CBSE guidelines.
3. What is the syllabus for the entrance assessment?
For admission to Class II onwards, the entrance assessment is based on the syllabus of the immediately preceding class. A student seeking admission to Class V, for example, is assessed on the concepts and topics covered in Class IV.
The assessment evaluates the applicant's foundational knowledge, conceptual understanding and academic readiness for the class applied for.
