Taking Admission in a Boarding School

Education today is beyond textbooks. Today schools focus on educating the children on every aspect of life, so they become global citizens. Along with academic excellence, the schools strive to ensure that the children have excellent social skills and can grow up to be good human beings.

Although all schools strive to ensure that the children are nurtured in every aspect, residential schools always have an edge over others. They have the children with them 24X7 and can thus groom them in every aspect of life, right from getting up early in the morning to doing their daily chores all on their own. Parents too realize this and are quite keen on sending their children to good boarding schools in places like Mussoorie, Dehradun,
etc.

Here’s how to go about taking admission to a good boarding school

The very first step of taking admission in any school is first finalizing the school. To zero down on this, the internet would be the best way out. Parents can simply search for boarding schools in their preferred area, they can search for schools based on the curriculum they follow, etc. Here, they would also have the option to further narrow down their search based on parameters like Dehradun boarding school fees or the best academic performance of Pune schools. After finalizing a school based on the desired criteria, people can then start with the admission procedure.

The Admission Procedure

The very first step here is filling the form which can be downloaded from the school’s website. Parents have to first register on the school’s website, pay the registration fees and then download the form,

Along with the form, parents usually need to send photocopies of the birth certificate, address proof, as well as last grade, attended. After these documents are received by the school, the school authorities’ send a confirmation and also notify parents about the date of the examination. 

On the scheduled day, students have to appear for the examination and answer the paper given by the school. This examination is basically designed to check the student’s proficiency in Mathematics, Language, Science as well as the 2nd Language that the child may have opted for. If the child fares well in this examination, they are called for a one-to-one interaction session with the principal. Parents have to accompany the child for this session as the principal may want to know moiré about the child’s background as well as judge the parent’s readiness to send the child to a boarding school away from home. 

Admission procedures may vary from institution to institution. Parents must visit the schools to understand the admission process properly.
