A KVS official said the change in the admission criterion for Class I had been implemented to match the NEP guidelines

New Delhi: The central government-run Kendriya Vidyalaya Sangathan (KVS) has changed the age criterion for admission to Class I from five-plus to six-plus from the coming academic session, raising the prospect of thousands of students missing out on the opportunity of receiving quality and affordable education.

The change in policy has also triggered the possibility of many KV seats remaining vacant as those who had taken admission to Class I in schools across the country at the age of five-plus last year will now progress to Class II.

According to guidelines issued by the KVS last month, a child must be six years old on March 31, 2022, to be able to get admission in Class I for the 2022-23 academic session. Till last year, children completing five years on March 31 of that year were eligible for admission.

The monthly fees at the KVs are between Rs 600 and Rs 900 for boys, depending on the class, while education is free for girls. The 1,250 KVs across the country take in one lakh students every year.
