Programme & Age Finder

Start with age. Decide with the whole child.

Choose your child’s current age for a likely NAS programme starting point. Age bands are approximate: readiness, the school-year cut-off and current availability still need a conversation with the office.

Interactive Starting Guide

What age is your child now?

Choose the closest age. The result is a guide, not an admission decision.

Your result will appear here.

NAS will confirm the appropriate programme, cut-off and availability with you.

01

Age is a starting point

Children of the same age can differ in language, separation comfort, independence, attention and social confidence. The admission conversation looks at fit without turning childhood into a test.

  • Use the result as guidance, not a guarantee.
  • Ask how the relevant programme supports the next developmental step.
  • Confirm the applicable school-year cut-off with the office.

02

The four-stage NAS path

Each stage grows from the one before it while keeping learning active, social and age-fit.

  • Playgroup: settle, sense and trust.
  • Nursery: talk, pretend and belong.
  • Junior KG: make, sort and wonder.
  • Senior KG: listen, count and try.

Parent FAQ

Clear answers, with no guesswork.

For a current operational detail, the school office remains the source of truth.

No. Age gives a starting band. NAS also discusses readiness, confidence, routines, programme availability and the relevant school-year cut-off.

Junior KG is commonly called LKG. NAS uses Junior KG on the website and includes LKG so families can recognise the equivalent term.

Senior KG is commonly called UKG. Both terms describe the older kindergarten stage before primary school.
