Delhi nursery admission 2021-22: Check full schedule

NEW DELHI: The directorate of education (DoE) Delhi has announced that nursery admission 2020-21 will begin from February 18 and end by March 31. Typically, the nursery admission process in Delhi is conducted in January. The delay this year is a result of the general disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic.

The DoE, in a notice released on Wednesday, said: “No deviation from the schedule shall be permitted. Each school shall display the admission schedule on its notice board and website. Further each school shall ensure that application forms for admission are made available to all applicants till the last date of submission of admission’s application form, that is March 4, 2020.”

The Delhi Government said that it has listed a schedule “to conduct the admission process smoothly at the entry level classes (below six years of age) in private unaided recognized schools of Delhi”.
