At Uttarakhand Public School (UPS) in Noida, we are dedicated to fostering a vibrant learning environment that celebrates diversity in all its forms, including ethnicity, religion, nationality, culture, and community. We understand the importance of supporting each student individually and collectively, empowering them to reach their full potential within our unique learning community’s vision and mission.

Our academic year spans from April to March, with admissions opening in September for all classes from Pre-Nursery to XII. We welcome inquiries from parents and encourage them to visit the school with their child by scheduling a prior appointment to gain a comprehensive understanding of our offerings.

To complete the application process, parents need to:

1. Fill out the registration form.
2. Ensure that children seeking admission to Nursery are at least 3+ years old by 1st July of the admission year.
3. Submit the registration form with a copy of the child’s previous year’s report card, birth certificate, and a passport size photograph attached to the form.

Upon submission, parents will be informed about further interaction details, including the date and venue. If offered admission, parents must promptly complete all related formalities to secure the seat. Any delay may result in the seat being offered to the next candidate on the waiting list.

Once admission is confirmed, parents must complete various forms, including the admission form, medical form, transport form, agreement/indemnity bond, and understand the school’s withdrawal and refund policies.

Fees are payable on a monthly basis, and any incidental costs incurred by students (e.g., lost or damaged books) will be billed to parents accordingly. UPS prioritizes a transparent and supportive admission process to ensure a positive and enriching educational journey for every student.
