Private schools open admissions for next academic year

The Hindu  

The 2017-18 academic year barely begun, but already, several private schools have begun issuing admission forms for the next year to anxious parents scrambling for a seat for their children in top schools. With the lack of a common calendar of events, parents have no choice but to make multiple visits to schools to see if they have started issuing admission forms. Several schools have not even updated the calendar of events on their websites, but have already started the admission process, say many parents who are angry. A father, looking for a seat for his son in a school in South Bengaluru, said, “It appears that like every admission season, this year, too, the process will take place without any guidelines related to fees or schedule.” Against guidelines D. Shashi Kumar, general secretary, Associated Managements of Primary and Secondary Schools in Karnataka acknowledged that starting admissions so early was not practical and against the department guidelines.
