Shawdesh Desk:

The High Court (HC) on Tuesday extended the admission process for the sixth graders by one week.

Earlier, Education Ministry said students from class one to nine seeking admission into government and non-government schools will be enrolled through a lottery system, instead of admission tests, this year.

Last year, students of Class I were admitted into schools through lottery, while students of Classes VI and IX were enrolled on the basis of their Primary School Certificate (PSC) and Junior School Certificate (JSC) exam results, respectively. Written tests were held for other classes.
