Author: Pacific World School

The best age to take admission to the nursery can vary depending on the child’s individual development and the admission policies of the school or playgroup.

Note: The admission criteria for pre-schools are 1.5–2.5 years for pre-nursery, 2.5–3.5 years for nursery, 3.5–4.5 years for LKG, and 4.5–5.5 years for UKG. This age is appropriate for a foundation.

As per The Times of India: The DoE issued a circular last year stating that a child admitted to nursery or preschool from the academic year 2023–24 must have completed three years of age on or before June 1, 2023.

Most schools and playgroups admit children to nursery when they have turned 3 years old, but some schools may admit children as young as 2 years old. The admission age may also depend on the child’s readiness for social interaction and the ability to handle separation from parents.

It is essential to note that the age of admission to the nursery should not be the only factor considered while making a decision. Parents should also consider their child’s cognitive, social, emotional, and physical development, as well as their individual needs and interests, to determine if they are ready for nursery.

Ultimately, the best age to take admission in the nursery will depend on the child’s individual needs and abilities, and parents should take the time to carefully assess their child’s readiness for formal education before making a decision.
