Is KG1/FS1 compulsory. New to Dxb with 4.5yo - no previous schooling.
Is KG1/FS1 compulsory?
We are new to Dubai. In our country school does not start until the child is 5yo, with the equivalent of FS2/KG2. My son is 4.5 (born in july). We have been here since April - so he has no previous formal schooling (we did not have visas in time for a start in 2011) He attended a registered 3yo kindergarten in our country in 2010/2011, but nothing since then. What are my options? In september will he be expected to enrol in KG1/FS1 as a 5 year old?! Or would be admitted to KG2/FS2 without the KG1/FS1? Or if we could find a place somewhere - could he start in the January 2012 term somewhere in either KG1/FS1? Or would it be a more accessible/realistic option to complete the remaining 2 terms of KG1/FS1 in a nursery this year - and aim for a KG1/FS1 place in a school starting in Sept 2012?
Sorry if these are stupid questions :\:
