Every year, many Jehanabad parents miss out on their preferred school because they did not know when admission season starts. Seats fill up fast — especially at good schools in the city. This guide tells you exactly when to act to secure your child's place for the 2026–27 session.
When Does Admission Season Start in Bihar?
In Bihar, school admissions for the April start of the academic year typically open in January — sometimes as early as late December for the upcoming session.
The key months are January, February and March. This is when schools receive the highest volume of enquiries and when popular schools fill their available seats.
📅 2026–27 Admission Season Timeline (Bihar)
- December–January: Schools open registrations and begin collecting enquiries
- January–February: Peak admission season — document submission, interactions, fee payment
- February–March: Most seats in good schools are filled
- April 1: New academic session begins
- April–May: Only remaining/waitlist seats available — limited options
Why You Should Not Wait Until March
Many parents assume they have until March to decide. In reality, popular schools — especially those in the city centre like Desire Public School at Imaliya More — often fill their Nursery and Class I seats by mid-February.
Waiting until March means you may be choosing from whatever seats are left, not the school or section you actually wanted. The best approach is to enquire in January, complete the admission process in February and have your child's seat confirmed before March.
When to Enquire for Different Classes
- Nursery, LKG, UKG: Enquire in January — these fill fastest as demand is highest
- Class I–V: January–February is ideal. Some seats may be available into March
- Class VI–VIII: February–March. Slightly more flexibility but still best not to wait
What Happens If You Miss the Season?
If you miss the main admission season (January–March), you have two options:
- Mid-year admission: Some schools accept mid-year admissions (typically July–August) if seats become available due to withdrawals. This is not guaranteed.
- Next year's season: Plan ahead and register as early as possible — ideally in December–January of the following year.
