ABU DHABI – Parents are scrambling to find new admissions in the UAE. Parents of newly arrived students from the country go to the school for seats. Schools that follow the Indian syllabus are crowded with applicants. And there are those who have applied to change schools locally. In UAE, admissions are taken in the months of April and September depending on seat availability. This is the reason for the current rush.
The school authorities clarified that those who have written the entrance exam early and are waiting for the limited seats bought by TC are considered. They buy the name and phone number saying that they will be considered for the next vacancy.
According to the school authorities, regarding 100 people are applying for admission in schools in different emirates of UAE every day. But there is a strict instruction from the education department of the respective emirate not to take more students than the current capacity. Therefore, the schools make it clear that there is no need to enroll more students.
From KG to primary classes, more people approach the seat. Applications for other classes are relatively less. The number of people who have studied up to class 10 in the country and come to join Plus One here has also increased. They are given admission with care.
Teachers indicate that it will be difficult for the new arrivals to continue their studies as the studies in the UAE started in April and only half of the lessons have been taught. Moreover, the deadline to register with CBSE is only a week away.
In the meantime, it will be difficult to complete the procedures of the local education department and get permission. At the same time, Kerala syllabus students have one month time for registration.
Those who had to move to different places due to job change are also seeking admission for their children. Those who do not have the financial capacity to enroll in a foreign syllabus school by paying increased fees have decided to send their children back home. A school in Abu Dhabi, which sought permission from the Department of Education to increase the number of classrooms and school facilities, has been granted one more division. Knowing this, many applied to transfer from other schools. But it is reported that the seat is over here too.
