TOOL · AGE AND CLASS

Which class by date of birth?

Enter a date of birth and pick a session to see the class that matches your child's age.

IN SHORT

Schools in Delhi decide the class by the child's age on 31 March of the year the session starts. Nursery: at least 3 and under 4 years old on 31 March of the year the session starts. For classes above that, a child who has passed the class below usually moves up, so age matters most at the entry years.
