Admission Steps

Enquiry & Campus Visit

Parents are encouraged to visit the school campus to interact with our admission counselors, understand the curriculum, see the facilities and get a feel of the school environment.

Registration Form

An application form needs to be filled out and submitted along with the registration fee. This step helps the school reserve a seat temporarily while the documentation process is underway.

Interaction / Entrance Assessment

For Pre-KG to Grade II, informal interaction with the child is conducted to assess readiness.
For Grades III and above, students may be required to attend a grade-appropriate entrance assessment to determine academic standing and learning needs.

Submission of Documents

Parents must submit all necessary documents at the time of admission (see list below). No admission is confirmed without full document verification.
 

Confirmation & Fee Payment

Once the documents are verified and the student is selected, parents must pay the admission fee and the first term fees to confirm enrollment. A formal admission confirmation letter will then be issued.
