Hours after it was reported in mid-day that authorities of Our Lady of Salvation School in Dadar (West) did not allow some students to complete their admissions because they had arrived late, a spokesperson for the school gave the establishment’s version of events, and putting speculation to rest, said that no admissions had been cancelled (‘Dadar school slams door on parents who reach 5 minutes late’, May 30).

He added that the main aim behind the penalty was to make sure that the parents did not take the school authorities and their children’s admission into the institution for granted.
