Admission Checklist: Documents You Need for School Admission

TNSKOOLS Editorial · 12 Oct 2026

Most schools in Tamil Nadu ask for a similar set of documents. Keeping them ready speeds up the admission process.

  • Birth certificate of the child
  • Aadhaar card of the child and both parents
  • Recent passport-size photographs (child and parents)
  • Transfer certificate from the previous school (Grade 1 and above)
  • Previous year's report card / progress report
  • Community certificate (if applicable)
  • Address proof
  • Medical / vaccination record (for pre-primary)

Tip: scan all documents and keep a folder on your phone so you can share them quickly when a school requests them.
