ADMISSION AGE IN H.P. UNDER R.T.E. IS 6 YEARS- A NEW RULE FOR GOVT. PRIMARY SCHOOLS
To Honorable President of India, Rashtrapati Bhawan,New Delhi. Subject: Relaxation in the age for admission in Govt. Primary Schools of Himachal Pradesh. Honorable madam, With regards, myself want to have your kind attention regarding the extension of admission age for kids in Himachal Pradesh from 5 to 6 years from the next academic session. I do not oppose the decision fully but I have some questions in my mind which are presently hovering in the minds of general public and primary teachers of H.P. Please see the questions as below:- In 80% countries of the world, primary education is given between 4 to 6 years. Most of the countries have applied the Kindergarten and LKG/UKG system. Many countries like USA,UK, Russia, Germany, Japan, Australia etc. have adopted the age of 5 to 6 years for admission in Primary Schools.
