Age Requirements and Year Placement Guide

Kindergarten and Grade 1
Your child’s eligible grade is based on their age on 31 December of the year of admission. The age requirements must be met, and no exceptions can be made.

Grades 2–12
Grade placement is based on your child’s current curriculum, current grade level, and readiness for the intended grade. We will also review their report card and transfer or leaving certificate from their previous school to confirm the appropriate placement.
