First thing I would like to let you know that to be an Indian Navy officer your son has basically have two options one is through NDA ( National Defense Academy ) and other is through CDS ( Combined Defense Service ).

To join NDA, you need to qualify NDA entrance examination and for appearing in the same you need to have completed your Class 12th with PCM group with your age lying within 16.5 years to 19.5 years.

Further to join CDS, you need to qualify CDS entrance examination and for appearing in this examination to join Naval Academy you need to have completed your B.Tech degree course with your age lying within 19 years to 22 years.

--> As far as you are concerned about admission of your son in any defense school then I would like to let you know that defense schools like Sainik School and Rashtriya Military School offers admission in Class VI and Class IX only through their respective entrance examination and hence being a student of Class 3 your son is not eligible for admission in these schools right now.

For details and updates regarding entrance examinations of Sainik School and Rashtriya Military School you need to refer to their respective official link which are http://www.sainikschoolsociety.org/admission. and htmlwww.rashtriyamilitaryschools.in/admission.html respetively.
