New Delhi: In a relief to thousands of parents, the principals and teachers of Delhi government schools will visit MCD run primary schools and handover admission slips of those children for admission in Class VI at their schools between April 1-15 next year.
Deputy CM Manish Sisodia said that the move will ease admission process for students seeking admissions.
Mr Sisodia held a meeting with the officials of Directorate of Education and commissioners of the MCDs in this regard. “It was also decided in the meeting that on a particular day to be decided closer to the date between 1st and 15th April, children and teachers of MCDs schools will be invited to government schools for celebrating children parties,” a Delhi government statement said.
With this decision, the Delhi government has done away with the prevalent practice so far according to which children passing 5th class from MCD feeder schools had to approach link schools for admission in 6th class and their parents had to run from pillar to post for getting the admission procedure completed. “From now on, the entire admission process will be made online and admission slips will be made available to children,” the govt said.
