Documents Required for Nursery Admission in Gurgaon
By the SchoolCove team · 4 min read · Updated November 2026
Admission paperwork is simple, but a missing document can hold up a seat. Most schools ask for the same core set, so you can prepare one folder and reuse it.
The core documents
- Child's birth certificate issued by the municipal authority
- Child's Aadhaar card, if you have one
- Aadhaar or other photo ID of both parents
- Address proof: Aadhaar, passport, rent agreement or utility bill
- Passport-size photographs of the child and both parents
- Immunisation or vaccination record
What one school lists
As an example, Delhi Public School Sushant Lok asks for an attested copy of the child's birth certificate from the Municipal Corporation, a photocopy of the child's Aadhaar card and photocopies of both parents' Aadhaar cards at the time of admission.
Sometimes asked for
- Transfer certificate or report card, if your child attended another school
- Medical fitness certificate and blood group
- Proof of sibling or alumni connection, where the school gives preference
- Category certificate, where applicable
Tips that save time
- Keep both originals and two sets of self-attested copies
- Check that names and dates match exactly across documents
- Scan everything into one PDF for online forms
- If the birth certificate has no name on it, get it updated early
In short
- Birth certificate is the one document every school needs
- Names must match across documents
- Keep scans ready for online registration
- Each school publishes its own list, so confirm
