Sainik Schools Society (SSS) is an autonomous organisation under the Ministry of Defence, Govt of India. The Society runs Sainik Schools. Sainik Schools are English medium residential schools affiliated to Central Board of Secondary Education (CBSE). Sainik Schools prepare Cadets to join the National Defence Academy (NDA), Khadakwasla (Pune), Indian Naval Academy, Ezhimala and other Training Academies for officers. At present there are a total of 33 Sainik Schools across the country.
Sainik Schools offer admission at the level of Class VI and Class IX. Admission is based on the performance of candidates in the All India Sainik Schools Entrance Examination (AISSEE).
Ministry of Defence (MoD) has approved 18 New Sainik Schools, which operate in partnership with NGOs/private schools/State Governments. These approved New Sainik Schools function under the aegis of Sainik Schools Society. These approved New Sainik Schools offer admission to the Sainik School stream of Class VI, through AISSEE 2023.
The Sainik Schools are fully residential and admit students in classes VI & IX only, strictly in order of merit decided as per the All India Sainik Schools Entrance Examination.
The schools come under the purview of respective state governments and the Ministry of Defence, and in his Union Budget of 2008, Finance minister, P Chidambaram, allocated Rs 2 crore to each of the 25 Sainik schools, to counter rising attrition in the defense forces, especially at the officer level

Children of Staff are admitted as day scholars provided they clear the All India Sainik Schools Entrance Examination for that particular school.
Students applying for Sainik Schools can now appear more than once in the Entrance Examination. This will enable boys to appear for the SS Nagrota exam also.
The system of Entrance Examination is modified in consultation with DIPR to ensure some variation in a pattern every year to discourage the coaching institutions.
The admission procedure of Sainik School is a little different than other Schools. Candidates with 10 and 11 years are eligible to appear for the entrance exam to VI standard and those aged between 13 and 14 years are eligible for IX standard.
The students must have completed their previous years’ education from recognized schools to get admission to Sainik School. For SC candidates 15% and for ST candidates 7.5% of total seats are reserved. 25% of seats are reserved for the children of service personnel and ex-servicemen.

The selection process consists of 2 main stages: written round and medical examination. Once a candidate has cleared the written exam, they are called for a detailed medical examination. The schools then release the final merit list on the basis of marks scored by a student in the written test and medical test taken together. Selected candidates will be granted admission in respective Class VI or IX, after complete document verification.
