Guidance to Admission Assessment Procedure for School:

 Application Form: Parents or guardians interested in admitting their child to the school
must first complete the school's application form. This form typically includes basic
information about the student and their academic background.
 Documentation: Along with the application form, the school may require certain
documents, such as the student's birth certificate, previous academic records (report
cards, transcripts), medical records, and any other relevant documents.
 Entrance Test: Most schools conduct an entrance test to assess the student's academic
abilities. This test usually covers subjects like English, Mathematics, and sometimes
Science. The purpose of the test is to gauge the student's current knowledge and
understanding of key concepts.
 Interview: A personal interview with the student and their parents/guardians may be
conducted by the school's admission committee. The interview helps the school
understand the student's personality, interests, and motivations for seeking admission.
 Extracurricular Activities: Some schools also evaluate the student's involvement in
extracurricular activities, such as sports, arts, music, or community service. Participation
in these activities can provide a well-rounded view of the student's talents and interests.
 Teacher Recommendations: The school may request recommendations from the
student's previous teachers or instructors. These recommendations can offer insights
into the student's behavior, work ethic, and academic potential.
 Assessment of Special Needs: If the student has any special needs or learning
requirements, the school may conduct additional assessments to determine the
appropriate support and resources needed.
 Admission Decision: After completing the assessment process, the admission committee
reviews all the information gathered and makes an informed decision on whether to
offer admission to the student. Factors such as test scores, interview performance,
previous academic records, and available seat capacity may influence the decision.
 Communication: The school communicates the admission decision to the parents or
guardians, informing them whether the student has been accepted, placed on a waitlist,
or denied admission.
 Enrollment: If the student is accepted, the parents or guardians will be required to
complete the enrollment process, which involves submitting necessary documents,
paying fees, and securing the student's place in the school.
