Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan — Age criteria for Class one admission

Address:

ESIC Medical College staff quarters, Hyderabad,

Dear sir/ madam

Until last year i.e 2021-22, 5 years on or before 31/03/2021 was the eligibility criteria, this change in the age criteria all of a sudden just before the admission to 6 years will make many children ineligible will deny the basic right of a child to get education.
My daughter is completing UKG this year, where are we supposed to join her in for this academic year when the notification comes in the last week of February? is she supposed to wait for a year to get into school? already with COVID, children were at home for two years.

If NEP 2020 is to be implemented, it has to be uniformly done in all the schools not just in KV, and should be done right from anganwadi or KG class when the child enters the school.

My humble request is to please reset the eligibility criteria for this year and introduce this right from Andanwadi onwards across the nation so that no child is denied the right to get education in any school, it also avoids the confusion for most of the parents.
After all every child should get a fair and equal change to get education in the school of their choice.

Hope I expect a good decision KV authorities.

Thanking you
