B. Age Requirement

In determining the proper academic level in preschool, the age of the child is considered first. Age qualification for Kindergarten learners in public schools should be five (5) years old by June 1 of every school year (DepEd Order No. 16, s. 2015). However, the school may consider learners entering Kindergarten who will turn five (5) years old by the end of August.

Meanwhile, for schools commencing their school year in July, Kindergarten learners should be five years old by July 1 and the extension period shall be until Sept. 30.

For schools commencing their school year in August, Kindergarten Learners should be five years old by Aug. 1 and the extension period shall be until Oct. 31.
