The admission process will be conducted through a computerized online system, starting from April 30. Only one application per child is permitted for the online admission process. Multiple applications for a child will result in the cancellation of the child's candidature, even if they succeed in the admission lottery.

Additionally, according to a circular dated October 4, 2023issued by the Director (Education), it is mandatory to submit the Aadhaar number of Parents/Legal Guardian when applying for admission at the entry level under EWS/DG/CWSN in Private Unaided Recognized Schools.
