Hi,
M a confused mom :-(. HE was born in 09/09/2006. I want my son to start his Primary 1 by 5 to 5.5 years. So shoould in put him in a Montessori course or a Nursery + Kindergarten Course. As i stay in Singapore, most of the local schools start Primary 1 only by 6+. My husband is not interested in the International Indian schools.
Thanks in advance clm replied. hi.
i did not quite follow what your options are ... however i would suggest you look at putting your child in a good montessori environment. most of them would start at about 2+ .
but do spend some time looking at the place - maybe read up about the system so you know what to look for. essentially if the kids seem happy and busy inside the environments - its a good sign. the teacher should not be over involved and \" managing\" the place - she should be like a guide.
and where ever you move to subsequently - the montessori environment will be a sound basis and there will be no chance of your child lagging behind in the class.
all the best!
