How The Uk School System Works/ How To Register Your Children In School In Uk/ All You Should Know

[@joyiguodala1101]

Hi Tochi, this is really helpful. I wish you could also talk about the 15/30 free school hours for a child that's not up to 4 years? I get really confused what hours to apply for for my 2 year old child. How to apply for it and what are the eligibilities. Thanks.

Wow nice and interesting you are so funny tho no be small mental health you are right is good to start on Time because before you no it no space same thing happened to me I did not get the nursery close to me

[@TochiEsther]

Yes na, you know this people don’t joke with mental health o🤣

[@ijeomamadu]

That choice of school reminds of our Common Entrance Days where u make choices of school u want ur child to attend from 1st choice to 3rd choice. Me I sha like that school age system. I finished school really at a young age so I don't actually see any advantage in it, because I see it as rushing a child into adulthood. So I like that age system.

[@TochiEsther]

True, children should be allowed to be children

[@efewunmiventures1160]

Thanks Tochi......pls you do not talk about secondry school .

[@ogomsseries]

I think Nigerian school system is different,cos they accord theirs according to years not the milestone. Thanks for sharing nne,always value packed.

[@TochiEsther]

Thanks for watching dear

[@julietanasi4361]

Yea, concerning the age thing, it means that children born between sept-Dec are typically going to be the oldest in any class. I’ve once stumbled on a group where most mothers talked about it and they said that it can have it’s advantages too, most times they tend to adapt easier and better than their peers born in august of the next year in same class with them because they are older. Don’t know how true it is though, but I think I kind of agree with them.

[@TochiEsther]

That’s so true o, you know o never really thought about it from that angle. Thanks for watching dear

No double promotion oo..I think that’s really good because sometimes kids are rushed through school unnecessarily..It’s easy to pay for meals when you’re sure of quality meals.

[@FajirasConcept]

[@TochiEsther]

Thank you for watching

[@olamidegloria1637]

Is it only in September they admit students? What if your children will be arriving UK by January which is second term, does it mean they will not go to school till September?

[@shanghaichica]

Paying for school meals from year 3-6 depends on the income of the parents. Not all parents even those that are British or have a permanent residency qualifying for free school meals after years 2. It’s means tested. Also in private nurseries not the ones attached to the school. You can pay for lunch or you can send your child to nursery with lunch. The private nurseries also accept the 15/30 hours free childcare from age three onwards.

[@ifetopeadekanola7605]

how do i start applying in January, are kids admitted in January too?

[@TochiEsther]

Yes. You can apply anytime you are ready

[@Classyblisshair]

@@TochiEsther thank u so much..is there any prerequisite to qualify for the 30 hours per week.

[@shanghaichica]

@@TochiEstherThey can actually start in the term after they turn three for the 15/30 hours free. My children are both born in May so they started their 30 hours free in the September after they turned 3 as that’s the next term. However other children say those born from September-December will start in January term after they turn three. Those born from January- May will start in the Summer term (April). The 15/30 hours free is a bit different to the school starting. As everyone starts in the September after they turn 4.
