Delhi Nursery Admission 2025-26: The first merit list for admission to entry-level courses (preschool or nursery, pre-primary or KG, and Class 1) will be published today, January 17. Schools will present the merit list, as well as the waiting list and the points-based grades.

Next, parents will have ten days to settle their concerns (by email, letter, or spoken communication). Following that, the second merit list will be revealed.

Around 1,741 private schools are taking part in the Delhi Nursery admissions procedure.

“This year, we received more than 2,000 registrations for nursery admissions, which is quite satisfactory and exceeds last year's numbers,” Pratika Gupta, principal of Sovereign School, Rohini, told PTI in December.

R N Jindal, Chairperson of Gitarattan Global Institution, stated that the institution has received roughly 1,000 registrations for nursery admission.

"We have received around 3,600 nursery registrations this year, which is a significant increase compared to previous years," Manisha Sharma, principal of Venkateshwar School, Dwarka, said.

In private schools, 25% of seats are reserved for candidates who belong to the Economically Weak Section (EWS), Disadvantaged Groups (DG), and children with impairments. There is a unique admission process for these reserved seats.

In the admission notification, Delhi's Directorate of Education (DoE) stated unequivocally that asking parents for donations is a serious offence, and schools could face a fine of up to ten times the amount received.

It further stated that schools must have a single admissions process for both pre-school and main-school classes because they are regarded as the same institution.
