Gujarat Revises Class 1 Admission Age Criteria

The Gujarat government has changed the rules for kids starting first grade.

Now, children need to be at least six years old by June 1st to enroll.

Kids with special needs can start earlier, with a four-year age break.

This change is part of the Right to Education law.

The government made these changes through an update to existing rules.

The rule change also clarifies who is considered a child with special needs.

Schools will adjust the age rules for older grades as well to keep things consistent.
