You child can start school as soon as s/he starts talking.

My cousin started school when he was one. I finished high school when i was 14.

I think the average age for finishing high school in nigeria is 16.

I know for a fact that the school system there is fast. You know kids get double promotion and stuffs.

most ppl rush their kids period, that double promotion thing doesn't work dere really anymore, got a couple but ma parents neva allowed me 2 accept it and i did da by age education like Canada, so my dear, it is not by age in Nigeria so anubody can graduate at any age, peace
