You may initiate the process by submitting the enquiry form. 2. Fill out the admission form. On successful submission of your enquiry, you need to fill out the admission form. You can get the admission form from the school office or download it from the school website. After filling out the admission form, you need to submit it to the school office along with the required documents. 3. Aptitude test and personal interview. All students seeking admission from Grade I to Grade IX need to appear for an aptitude test in English, Mathematics, Science, and a Second/Third Language. The question papers will be based on the general syllabi, not on the current textbooks alone. After qualifying for the aptitude test, the child will be called for a personal interview with the Senior Principal. 4. Submission of required documents. On confirmation of admission, parents will be required to submit a Conduct Certificate & Transfer Certificate from the school attended previously. Submission of documents is part of the admission process. 5. Admission confirmation. Admission will be confirmed only after assessing the performance of the child in the aptitude test and the personal interview with the Senior Principal. An admission confirmation letter and fee payment details are shared with the parent. 6. Payment of fees. Successful applicants are required to pay admission and establishment charges to secure their place. The payment details are provided with the confirmation letter. 7. FOR CLASS XI. The academic reports of classes VIII, IX and X along with a Character Certificate from the last school are mandatory for admission. Kindly note that admission for Grade XI is considered based on the results of the board exams and the stream opted. 8. General Conditions of Application. Registering the name of the child and attending the interview will not ensure a seat for the child as this depends solely on the performance of the child in the Interview and Aptitude Test and the vacancy in the class. As per state government directives, from the academic year 2026-27, children should be at least 6 years on June 1st for admission into Grade 1. The school does admit children during the middle of the academic year in the same class; however, for Grades IX to XII, it is not applicable. 9. Contact for more information.
