Action for School Admission Reforms (ASAR)

Letter to Parents

Dear Parents,

We started ASAR with the aim to provide a platform for parents to register complaints against schools violating the law of the land with respect to nursery admissions. In this initiative towards bringing transparency and fairness in school admissions, your active participation has strengthened our resolve in this initiative and forced us to stretch to the maximum to bring relief to the suffering parents. Our efforts bore fruit this year when the Directorate asked a school to postpone its admissions in keeping with the Common Admission Schedule, a demand kept in front of the Directorate by ASAR since last year.

But ASAR doesn't stop here. We have put forth a 'Parents' Charter', 'your charter' which mentions the foremost demands that parents have to bring relief from the problems of school admissions. We want your co-operation to fulfill all these demands, to move the court, and the Directorate, do whatever it takes to make the admission process hassle-free and transparent. Help us by:

• Calling at our helpline when a school is not adhering to the admission process.
• Writing to us via email
• Being part of the television programs on the various news channels
• Featuring in newspaper stories or venting out your grievances to media
• And Volunteering

We wish the school of your choice for your child.

Thank You.
