I have heard and read that deciding on a board is important when choosing a school for your child, but is it that important to consider even at nursery level? My kid is 3 years old and i am looking for a school. Pls help.

hi swati!
Nitin
I understand. Preschools are board agnostic. so in a preschool, one doesn't have to pick one basis the education board.
Nitin
You may though look at other parameters like nearness to your home, curriculum followed by the preschool, teacher quality, and the learning infrastructure.
But how can we determine teacher quality?
Nitin
some key aspects of teacher quality are
Nitin
the qualification of teachers- check if they have done an early years/Nursery teacher training course or at least a BEd
Nitin
Experience in being a early years educator - years of experience and feedback from the parents
Nitin
approach with resource material and feedback receiving skills are also important aspect to being a good early years educator
So, can I ask the school administration for this information.
Nitin
yes, and i think you would be also able to see their willingness and transparency to share this. in case you find them closed minded and not so transparent with these, you know it's perhaps not the right place for your child
Thanks Nitin for all this...really helpful
Nitin
most welcome swati, all the best!

There's a big debate about sending my little one to preschool at home. I am the only one who is keen on sending him to pre-school whereas my husband wants homeschooling. I don't think homeschooling can give him the exposure a good pre-school can give. Please guide.

hi mehak!
Nitin
how old is your child?
Hi Nitin, he is 18 months
Nitin
ok,thanks mehak. couple of things we could look at here. 1. a child's mind is growing at its best in the first 5 years, 2. we may foster brain development is by providing conducive surroundings, resource material, learning environment
Nitin
It's here that preschool adds a substantial value to a child's growth and development, as there is not only a physical infrastructure for a child's growth, but also peer interaction, cognitive development , gross motor/fine motor development - overall growth of the child.
Nitin
So I would say, it's a good idea for your child to join a preschool.
Nitin
especially if she's able to speak and ask for water, to go to the toilet, or for any help.
What is the right age to send my little one to school. He is 2 years and 3 months as of now.

Hi Nikita! I would advice you to look at a full school only after your child is 3 years. Ideally your child would be 4 years in pre-primary and then 5 years in KG in a full school
Nitin
RTE prescribes that a child should be 6 years in grade 1
Nitin
though it vaires in some schools, by grade 1 most of them normalize it to this age.
Nitin
I hope this helps.
