Beginning at 5:00 PM, parents and guardians will be able to register their children for government and government-aided special schools through the online admission portal of the Delhi Directorate of Education (DoE). Registration will be open until June 26, 2026. This initiative is focused on providing special schools for children with special needs in the national capital from nursery through class XII. This initiative is the next step in providing more infrastructural support and resources for children with special needs (CWSN) through the special school admission initiative.
As stated by the Directorate of Education, the admission process is for 12 special schools of government and government-aided schools. These special schools are for children with different needs, and Delhi hopes to fulfil the needs of children with different levels of learning and development.
Parents should review eligibility, see what documents are needed, and confirm how many seats are available before applying. The goal of the special school admission process is to fulfil the needs of special education for children in the capital city of Delhi. The new admission process will be transparent and will create an equal playing field for the applicants.

Expanding Opportunities for Students through the Inclusive Education Initiative
Beginning this admission cycle, Delhi is committed to further developing inclusive education systems and providing students with disabilities access to suitable educational environments. Special schools managed by the Directorate of Education customise teaching and learning, and provide the facilities needed to support students with different needs. Education specialists stress that if students with special needs receive educational services at an earlier age and in a timely manner, their learning and social outcomes will develop positively.
Parents who wish to apply during this admission cycle are asked to first verify that the disability certificate, education documents, age proof, and other relevant support documents are complete before starting the registration process. In previous admission cycles, the Directorate conducted admissions via an organised process that featured online registration, document verification, and the allocation of seats as a way to ensure an admission process that is transparent and fair. It is anticipated that the same process will guide the current admission cycle.
Documents Parents Should Prepare
- Disability certificate
- Age proof document
- Aadhaar card of the student and parent
- Delhi residency document
- Previous school records (if applicable)
- Passport-size photos
- Other medical documents that support the disability
What Parents Should Know Before the June 26 Cutoff
Educational experts recommend that parents not procrastinate in submitting applications due to the limited time remaining in the registration window. Delaying registration means less time to amend any errors or omissions that may come up. The Directorate of Education has advocated for digital systems of admission to make access easier by lowering the administrative burden for families across Delhi.
The special school admission process is designed around the inclusive education initiatives of the National Policy to provide equitable access to education. The sourcing of admissions from Nursery to Class XII creates learning support pathways for children with special needs during the school system. Parents should be on the look out for information from the DoE on the schedule for document verification and the subsequent seat allocation and admission confirmation processes.
The opening of special school admissions is yet another step Delhi is taking towards further diversifying educational inclusion. It also means more families now have access to quality education and specialised support services. Eligible parents are, therefore, encouraged to submit applications on or before the June 26 deadline. Admission related announcements will be posted to the Directorate of Education admission portals.
