The government of Tamil Nadu is to release the RTE Admissions 2025 notification on October 6, 2025, to initiate the application process for private school admissions under the Right to Education (RTE) Act for the 2025-26 academic year. This release follows the central government releasing the state's due amount of funds to the tune of around ₹700 crore, following which the reimbursement for schools enrolling students under RTE quota can go on smoothly.

Tamil Nadu state education department, in its press release, reaffirmed that admissions under RTE Act, 2009, will officially be initiated, highlighting the commitment of the government to offering free and compulsory education to such eligible children.

In order to simplify the process, a dedicated 10-day online admission window has been planned to regularize children already admitted against the RTE quota so that schools can correct records and put on record all eligible students. School administrators have been directed to find out which children are eligible according to the eligibility criteria, obtain written permission from their parents, and submit the total number of seats filled up in first-level classes by October 7, 2025.

The authorities will then prepare and publish the final list of eligible children for admission under the RTE provision on October 14, 2025, and bring clearness to parents and schools as well. The government has encouraged candidates and parents to monitor the official RTE Tamil Nadu website for the latest updates and detailed information regarding the application procedure, eligibility requirements, and admission guidelines.
