Kids school admission for separated couple

(Querist) 24 June 2012 This query is : Resolved 
Hello Experts,

I need your suggestion in particular situation. I am sure there would be many more fellow members who are suffering from this issue.

I have been separated from wife since 3 years and kid is now at the age of getting into school.There are 498A, DV and Child custody (filed by me, a husband) case between us.

There are almost no chances of cohabitating together.

In this situation how can we direct wife to put kid on particular school ? How can we prevent wife, if she is putting kid in not so good school ? I would request answer on legal front as mediation / mutual meetings have been failing since last 3 years due to adamant nature of wife.I expect that she would not agree on any of my suggestion even for kid and kid's future.

Please share your thoughts on this situation.

Thanks.

Regards
A1(498A)

Well there is no provision in law whcih permits you to dictate the school of the child who is separated from you.

However you can very well file petition in the court citing names of reputed schools where the child may be admitted if the current school he is studying is proved to be of sub standard or not suitable for him. In this case you may be directed to bear his educational expenses.
