- The selection of the student(s) will depend upon the child’s performance in the interview test/ interview assessment, the ability of the school to serve the needs of the child, and the availability of seats in the concerned class.
- Based on the admission test and other criteria, the school reserves the right to admit any student who is found fit for admission or refuses admission without assigning any reason. For all matters related to admissions, the decision of the Principal/Management will be final.
- Upon selection of the child, the parent is issued with all the admission requirements ie. fee structure, uniform sheet, set of school rules, admission forms, and books list
