    Hi Lavanya

    As far as I know (also with experience of 2 kids in classes beyond 1st class), the eligible age to go for 1st class is 5-1/2 yrs as of 1st June of that year.

    So your kid is likely to go into 1st class in 4 years time. Nevertheless, I would suggest you to enquire with schools like DPS, Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan, etc. (who are on CBSE) to make a decision.

    Hope this helps. Please let me know if you need any further clarifications.

    Cheers

    hi lavanya,

    Your child should have completed 3, when seeking admission into kg in most schools. so the child will be 5+ or 6 when she is in 1st standard. most schools prefer 6 for first standard.

    Again it depends on the school.
