The Directorate of Education (DoE) had last month notified the admission schedule. The admission to entry-level classes for the previous academic session began in February 2021, after a delay due to the COVID-19 pandemic. However, this year, the schedule was in line with previous years.

As per the notified schedule, the first list of selected children will be put up on February 4. This will be followed by a second list on February 21 and a subsequent list for admission, if any, on March 15. The entire admission process will conclude on March 31.
