Can I not get a concession in age if my child is just a few days/months younger than minimum age for admission to Junior KG?
Answer As we have mentioned in the previous paragraph, our desired age in Junior KG is 4 yrs 6 months. Therefore, your child is really 6 months or more below the desired age and will be perfect for the next academic year. If you hurry you will be hurting your child rather than helping her or him. You child will continuously struggle in a class where many of the other children are six to eight months (or even a year) older, with better-developed motor skills, better communication skills and greater physical & emotional development. Remember, this is a 25% difference in development!! You will be much better off postponing admission for the next year and giving your child one more year of care at home.
