The new academic year started on Monday, and most kids were seen flocking to their schools, however, some kids were with their parents at the BMC’s education office in Dadar (East) to complain against schools that have refused to confirm their admission.
While the education department insists that every student who had applied for schools under the Right to Education (RTE) Act’s 25 per cent reservation quota has been allotted seats, some parents claim otherwise. Pallavi Jha (name changed) was happy when her son was given a seat in Queens Mary High School in Malad.
However, she claims that the school has denied his admission. “I have been running from pillar to post to get my son admitted, but there is very little help coming from the school or the BMC authorities. I hope that my son doesn’t lose a year,” she said.
Similar was the case with Rana Sonaran, who was waiting outside the education office with his grandson, who has been denied admission by Pawar Public School in Bhandup. “We were allotted seats through the online process, and now the schools are denying the admission.
Officials at BMC have asked me to submit the documents at the school again, but there is no concrete help coming from anyone,” he said, adding, that they will now ask the school to provide in writing why they have denied admission to his grandson...
