3 is fine,Nigeria we try to rush education for our kids without having to wait for their brains to develop well and have good intelligence. That's why you see a 14 years old child in ss3 with no emotional intelligence, got admission into the university and misuses his brain to do bad and not good. I love the UK style, a child won't get into a class if he/she hasn't reach the expected age meant for the class. 23 Likes |

When he's mentally stable enough.. it's not by age. In Finland, schooling starts at 7 years. They have the best educational system. Education is not stressing children, giving them overlaod work and pressuring them. I will never do that to my chidlren. These days we want to force children to grow into fast adults. I don't know all the need to rush. Success in life is not about how early u finish school, u might finish early and still don't have sense. Because your brain has been over pressured. Once a child is mentally strong to attend school, that is when he should start 15 Likes 2 Shares |

This is a big issue. I saw one this week. Looks like a six month old baby. I shout say this one too don start school? With uniform o.. As I was taking them rhymes, he didn't even mind me and was just pacing up and down the classroom. I said what are parents looking for bikonu? This one that should still be sucking breast, they carry uniform hang for him neck. Though what I like about him is that he didn't cry or disturb as long as we didn't give him any task to do. ![]() ![]() The right age should be 4 but schools admit a year+ and 2 years old cos I remember when working as a full timer, all my pupils celebrated their 2nd birthday in kg 1 and as we were moving to kg2 they were already 2. I moved with them because parents say na me must handle their ward in the next class o. Na run I run that ebola period ![]() Most of them dey secondary school now. Chai my babies. 15 Likes 1 Share |

For the pre-kg class, 3 years. For Primary 1 class: 6 years. For the JS 1 class: 11 or 12. This way, your child would be psychologically, socially and intellectually stable enough to handle challenges in learning and the social interaction that goes with it. 13 Likes |

My daughter started at 2yrs plus. And she was great at nursery rhymes. But with my second daughter am thinking of waiting till shes 3. Times are changing now. In UK the normal age is 3. So follow your insticts and do what's best for your child. But 2-3 is ok. Another thing is when they are 3 they will be able to tell u what's been done to them in school either by their teacher or fellow pupils. Children have a way of expressing themselves and as a parent u don't neglect these information. 11 Likes |

My first child, a son, started with "Baby class" when he was around 2 years because of how busy we the parents were at work. That really helped his IQ and made him a fast learner because when he gets home, he began to recite ABC and 123 that he was hearing from the older children class. Today, he is very brilliant and sharp. 3 Likes |
