[quote=Anonymous]The other Montessori teacher here. May I hijack, and answer the PP's question? Social & academic both play a role. At my school, we prefer for the kids to move up closer to 6.5 years. Although, of course, we also consider the whole child, and make exceptions. Never younger than 6 years, though. It is really up to the school's discretion to make the decision if your child is ready. However, always be an advocate for your child, if you disagree with their decision of when the move up should occur. I will also add that sometimes admissions takes a part in the school's decision. For example, how full is the elementary class? Remember, move up can occur throughout the year at many local Montessori school. Each school's move up policy is different. To sum everything up, your school would probably be the best source of info because every school has their own way of doing things. Hope this helps... [/quote]
