The guidelines also mentioned relaxations of up to six months in some cases, depending on the class level and school discretion.

For admission to Class 11, the DoE said students passing the secondary school examination (Class 10) would be eligible.

Students who completed Class 10 from National Institute of Open Schooling institutions must have at least 50 per cent in five subjects to opt for humanities without skill subjects, and 45 per cent for humanities with skill subjects.

For children with disabilities, the DoE highlighted that admission to schools for blind students required a disability certificate or Unique Disability ID (UDID) card.

For students with intellectual disabilities, admission is limited to those classified under moderate to profound disability based on IQ levels.

Priority will be given to students residing in Trans-Yamuna areas due to transport limitations, according to the DoE guidelines.

For hearing-impaired students, the DoE specified that only those with severe to profound hearing loss (above 61 dB) would be eligible, with additional assessments such as PTA (hearing test) and IQ tests being required.

The DoE said all admissions would be conducted online on the official website.

Preference will be given to students who have siblings studying in government special schools, it added.

While children residing in Delhi will be prioritised, non-residents can apply for hostel facilities if seats are vacant after admitting the eligible Delhi-based students.

The directorate also emphasised that admissions would be subject to seat availability and a draw of lots conducted if applications exceeded the seats available.
