2. Admission Test
An admission test is conducted for students applying from Pre-Nursery up to Matric. The test is designed to check age-appropriate skills, including literacy, numeracy, and general awareness, ensuring the child is ready for the level they are applying to.
Documents Required
1. Previous school records (report card, certificates)
2. Birth certificate of the child
3. Parent/guardian CNIC copy
4. Recent passport-size photographs of the child
3. Interview
Selected students, along with their parents, are invited for an interview with the school management. This step allows us to understand the child’s personality, learning habits, and family’s educational goals, while also giving parents an opportunity to ask questions.
4. Confirmation
After successful completion of the process, parents receive a congratulatory message and an official admission offer. With this, the child becomes part of the S.M. Public Academy family, beginning their journey toward academic excellence and character building.
