The circular said that under the act, the school would have no choice but to admit students from poor families, who would be admitted to a class depending on their age, which would pull down its standards. According to the RTE, even an uneducated 11-year-old child must be admitted in the 6th grade, and must be given special attention. The medium of instruction of the class must be changed to that with which the child is comfortable and the level of education should be equivalent to the child's understanding capacity at the time. The principal, Mrs. Subala Ananthanarayanan, did in fact state that she would not mind in helping improve the Government Schools in reaching out and teaching the students.
