Prospertochu:You just want to delay their future How are we even sure that your wife won't be pregnant aga before that school time If you want those children to start school at that year of age your are planning for them, Are they going to start from KG or nursery class or straight to primary one class If yes then then you are the one who spoilt their educational foundation class So if they don't catch up, even up to WAEC level don't blame them Your decision made them so How are you even sure that by that 5yrs you will hit millions to start school for them I will advise you allow them to start pre-school now this September and even it means you starving to see them through with school fees, do so that's what other parents are doing Pls look for schools around you and pick one that the school fees are manageable Don't truncate their future education pls |

Are they being home-schooled? At age 5, they are supposed to be going to Pry 1. Or are you going to start them from nursery at that age? Because going straight to pry 1 might be difficult for them to catch up. |

Prospertochu:That means that up till now, all they have been doing is watching cocomelon. Did they get any nursery education...like identifying and writing numbers? I ask because my daughter is 4 going on 5. She just started primary and they moved her to the next class because of her foundation. You will have to start them from nursery so that they don't struggle. |

My children started school at 4-5 years old because that's the mandatory age to start school in the UK, not younger. It does not affect their future, it means they're mature and ready to absorb the learning at that age. |

opeyy:Before your children started school, I guess you had them enrolled in childcare? |
| Re: My children will not start school until 4 or 5 years old by opeyy(f): 10:12am On Sep 14, 2022 |
Mindlog:Yes, they attended nursery for childcare purposes due to work and not for 'educational purposes' as they aren't allowed to teach them in nursery, they only play but kids learn through play too. |
| Re: My children will not start school until 4 or 5 years old by Mindlog: 10:36am On Sep 14, 2022 |
opeyy:At least they left home and mixed with other kids of their age group, learning was taking place through play and that contributed in firming up their foundation as they got to also develop their social skills away from home by relating with adults and kids at the nursery. By the way, my Master's dissertation was focused around play. ![]() |

Prospertochu:You can teach them to speak and write. If they already know how to speak english, help them build their writing skills. Give them grammar quizzes, little essays to do (e.g. describe your home, describe your friend, what is your favorite anime,... ) Please, make them write consistently. You can give them weekly essays to do. e.g. Today, you describe your mom in two paragraphs, tomorrow you describe our house, next you talk about the food you like. This enhances the kids thinking skills and builds their capacity to express theirselves which are very important in society. You don't need to teach the class contents to your kids, they'll get that in school. Instead focus on their mental ability: thinking and communication skills. |

Mindlog:Are you that dumb or plain stupid. Didn't you see where the OP stated that public schools are far from where he is staying. If you can't help him why don't you shut up your mouth instead of embarrassing your family on a public forum. |

marypoppinss:Just shut up. Not everyone is wicked and cunning like you. |
| Re: My children will not start school until 4 or 5 years old by Mindlog: 3:29pm On Sep 14, 2022 |
Corridon:Such outburst is one of the key reasons, internet enabled phones are not allowed in psychiatric wards, your ward nurse should be questioned. |

Corridon: Corridon:Oga fuk off . Same way others r entitled to their opinions is same way u r , no tell anybody shut up . U dey form nice guy , why don't u send him money na ? Send him money fool |
| Re: My children will not start school until 4 or 5 years old by Corridon: 3:33pm On Sep 14, 2022 |
Mindlog:I should be telling you that. You are the only one who has been disgracing yourself with dumb and stupid questions that I have to pity you and step in. I repeat again, if you can't help the OP then STFU and stop adding to his pains. Fool. |
| Re: My children will not start school until 4 or 5 years old by Corridon: 3:35pm On Sep 14, 2022 |
Sirqt5:Just shut up your dirty mouth. If you can't help the OP then stop adding to his pains by asking stupid questions. Idiot. |
| Re: My children will not start school until 4 or 5 years old by Mindlog: 3:48pm On Sep 14, 2022 |
Corridon:Eyah, I hear "worse" daily...so, continue and please don't pity me. By the way,how much have you sent him so far to register his 3 children in school and plans for January fees? No matter how irresponsible some state governors can be, there is always at least a public primary school within walking distance in neighbourhoods especially in low income areas, where children walk to school and come back in groups. Where do the children from the low income families in OP's neighbourhood attend school, same Emene whey I know? |

Wittyglam:I wouldn’t advice they go to a public school at this age, it’s better they are home-schooled |
| Re: My children will not start school until 4 or 5 years old by Wittyglam(f): 3:04pm On Sep 15, 2022 |
Lamanii22:okay but there are some good ones out there. |
