Hello

KV schools open admissions to students from various backgrounds , but they prioritise certain categories .

Here’s an overview of KV admissions and eligibility criteria :

1. Priority Categories for Admission

Category 1: Children of Central Government employees like  Army and Air Force personnel .

Category 2: Children of Central Government employees who are not transferable .

Category 3: Children of State Government employees .

Category 4: Children of private sector or self-employed individuals .

2 . General Admission for Non-Government Employees

KV schools also give admission to  students whose parents are not government employees , but they fall under lower-priority categories .

Admissions in this category depend on the availability of seats after admitting children from the prioritised categories .

3. Age and Class Requirements

The age requirement varies for each class . for 1st class , children must be 5 years old as of March 31 in the admission year .

4. Online Application Process

Applications are submitted online through the official KVS portal . The portal lists all KV's and parents can apply to multiple KV's if desired .

5. Reservation Policy

follow a reservation policy for SC , ST , OBC and EWS categories with a fixed percentage of seats allocated to each category and for differently-abled children .

Hope this helps you .

Thank you

No, Kendriya Vidyalayas (KVs) do not have open admissions for all students.

While KVs are known for their quality education, their admissions process is primarily based on priority categories. These categories include children of central government employees, defense personnel, and other specific groups.

To get admission to a KV, you typically need to:

1. Meet the Eligibility Criteria: This includes age limits and academic qualifications.
2. Fulfill the Priority Category: Your parent or guardian should belong to one of the eligible categories.

However, it's always a good idea to check the specific admission guidelines for the academic year you're interested in. These guidelines might vary slightly from year to year.

You can visit the official Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) website or contact your nearest KV for the most accurate information.

Hello,

Yes, Kendriya Vidyalaya (KV) schools in India do open admissions to students beyond just central government employees, but specific guidelines apply. Here’s a quick overview of the admission process and eligibility:

1. Priority Categories : Admission priority is given to central government employees’ children, as these schools were originally set up to cater to their education needs. The priority order typically is:

   • Central government employees’ children.
   • Army and paramilitary personnel’s children.
   • State government employees’ children.
   • Private sector or self-employed individuals’ children.

2. Open Seats for General Public : In recent years, KVs have reserved a certain number of seats for children of private sector employees and other civilians, especially if seats remain vacant after accommodating high-priority categories.

3. Admission Rounds : Admissions are conducted in rounds:

   • First Round : Reserved for children of central government employees and defense personnel.
   • Subsequent Rounds : Available for others based on seat availability.

4. Online Admission Process : KVs use an online platform for admission applications, and the official KV website releases annual admission guidelines, dates, and instructions.

5. Document Requirements : Commonly required documents include proof of residence, birth certificate, proof of employment for priority categories, and any other relevant certificates.

For specific admission dates and updates, check the Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) official website . Admission notices usually come out around February to April.

Hope it helps !
