The district education office has begun the process of online enrolment for primary classes under the directions issued by school education secretary Krishan Kumar. The Department of Education had issued instructions to chart out online plan, on the same lines of private schools and ensure that maximum enrolments are done for elementary and primary classes across the district.

Deputy DEO Rekha Mahajan said the department had launched a web link to help parents resolve their queries about the process. “Interested parents can fill the admission form online in three easy steps. The move comes after the schools were shutdown due to Covid-19 outbreak. The admission process begins from today and we will plan online learning lessons to help children learn during this period," said Mahajan.

Teachers and department officials have also been asked to call up parents and make them aware about the new admission process. "Most schools are following the online admission process. We are also preparing to declare results online due to given situation," said the DEO.
