Kolkata nursery admission 2027-28 dates
There may not be one common calendar for every private school in Kolkata. Schools can publish forms, age reference dates, interaction rules, selection lists and fee deadlines separately. Government or RTE routes may follow a different notification.
What to monitor
- State education notifications and the applicable RTE portal
- School admission page, prospectus and notice board
- Form opening and closing dates
- Document-verification, interaction or lottery dates
- Selection list, waitlist and fee-payment deadline
Current planning position
No unverified 2027-28 date is presented as official. Prepare the child profile, documents and shortlist now; submit only through the school's verified domain or the applicable government portal.
Government and government-aided admission instructions may differ from independent private-school calendars. Always identify the school type before following a schedule.
Age and eligibility
Check the exact class name before comparing age rules. Schools may use Nursery, Montessori, Pre-Nursery, Pre-KG, LKG or Junior KG differently. Calculate the child's completed age on the reference date specified in the 2027-28 notice, not merely on the form-submission date.
- Match the birth certificate spelling and date with the application.
- Check minimum and maximum age, if both are stated.
- Read any age-relaxation rule before relying on it.
- For RTE or another reserved route, verify residence, income, category and neighbourhood eligibility separately.
Documents to prepare
Common records
- Child's birth certificate and recent photographs
- Parent or guardian identity documents
- Current residential address proof accepted by the school
- Parent and child details using consistent spelling
- Application acknowledgement and payment receipt
When applicable
- Sibling or alumni evidence
- Income, caste, disability or disadvantaged-category certificate
- Transfer, vaccination or medical record requested by the school
- Distance or neighbourhood evidence
- Custody or guardianship document
Never upload identity documents through an advertisement, messaging link or unverified form. Confirm the domain and privacy information first.

Frequently asked questions
When will Kolkata nursery admission 2027-28 begin?
A single date should not be assumed for every school. Monitor official school notices and the relevant state authority.
What is the nursery age requirement?
It depends on the entry class, school and applicable rules. Use the reference date printed in the school's 2027-28 notice.
Are RTE and regular applications the same?
No. They are separate admission routes with different eligibility, forms and timelines.
Can one document list be used for every school?
Use a common preparation checklist, but verify each school's final list before submission.
Planning a nursery shortlist in Kolkata
Local planning notes updated 25 October 2026. This is not a verification date for any school's admission calendar.
Locality and campus checks
Record whether a campus is in Kolkata, the Salt Lake/New Town area or Howrah rather than using the school brand alone. Confirm the journey, medium and entry class on the campus notice before comparing fee information.
Areas to compare include Salt Lake, New Town, Ballygunge, Behala, Dum Dum. These are planning starting points, not a ranked or exhaustive school directory.
Which rules should you check?
Match the school type and programme before following an admission instruction. Government and aided-school notices should not be treated as a common calendar for independent private schools; confirm the selected campus's own process.
Banglar Shiksha is a starting point for authority notices. Check the publication date, academic session and school type; this link does not establish that 2027-28 applications are open.
Questions to resolve before applying in Kolkata
- Does the notice name the campus, entry class and academic session you intend to apply for?
